Reviews
Grade 8 Up-- In a collection of essays, articles, and book excerpts, this anthology attempts to explore the problem of unwarranted attacks by police against civilians. The articles all come from different sources and represent a variety of views, e.g., the leftist Guardian newspaper; the conservative John Birch Society's magazine, The New American . Because there are so many sources of articles, writing styles vary considerably. Police brutality, however, is not explored retrospectively in much detail. Of 31 articles, 27 (or 87%) were written in reaction to the well-publicized beating of Rodney King in 1991. Many of those articles can be found in their original sources; still, the helpful index may aid students in finding particular aspects of the topic, and those searching for material for debates or essays may find this a good place to start. --Marilyn Long Graham, Lee County Library System, Fort Myers, FL
