′Deeply informed, penetrating, challenging and readable. Eugene McLaughlin analyses ′the state we′re in′ with respect to policing′ -

′The landscape of police and policing is rapidly changing. McLaughlin locates this change in the media imagery of policing and in the very real fragmented, global context of contemporary policing. When I got to the end, I wanted the debate to continue. This book is valuable in taking our discussions about policing and policing from a clear documentation of how much has changed in policing England and Wales in the last 20 years.′ -
