Summary
For courses in Police Administration/Management. Based upon the authors' extensive experience in teaching, policing, and management, this introduction to the day-to-day rigors of a police department stresses that management is only effective if it is based upon a combination of both theory and practice. Using a proactive rather than a reactive approach, it stresses that police managers anticipate events through planning, use police personnel and resources effectively, and deliver a whole range of police services to the community. Proactive Police Management provides a review, analysis, and synthesis of traditional scientific management, the behavioral/systems approach, and the human relations approach.
