street cop and why it should be done differently. The
real police are the people who work the street - the
first officers on the scene of trouble. They are not
supervisors or administrators. They make all of the
most important decisions in police work, but are at the
bottom of the hierarchy. This is a view not covered in
popular media and includes social history, historical

The Real Police is written in a conversational tone and explains the ethic and traditions of the officers who
work the street. The twelve principle chapters are thematic and the book includes sketches of memorable
characters. Many readers say that they gained a new perspective on the subject and "couldn't put it down."

with mediation skills can handle these types of
scenes substantively, avoid escalating the level of
the dispute, and avert a repeat call-for-service. A
police department trained in mediation and
arbitration also maintains a better reputation with
citizens and strengthens community policing
philosophy, missions and programs. This book
provides a rationale for mediation and arbitration
training, along with an explanation of the process
and instructions for the training of police officers. It
offers an aid to dispute resolution professionals
with role playing situations and lesson plans helpful

a guide to establishing official mediation and

for both what I will learn "hands-on" at the
academy and what I will actually face as a police
officer. Each chapter talks about a part of the
police officer's job like responding to alarms,
filing reports, and dealing with the community. A
large section of the book is dedicated to traffic
stops and related situations, such as searches,
sobriety tests, etc., which I thought was good
because it is what a lot of officers do in most
parts of the country. For each topic, there are
several scenarios with questions asking what you
would do. Theses are probably meant for a
criminal justice class with others to discuss
answers with, but even on my own I thought they
were fun to read and a way of envisioning what I
would do the first time I face something similar.
Overall, I would recommend this book to anybody
who wants to be or is going to be a police officer.

really face and the scenarios even give you a
