Police Talk A Scenario-Based Communications Workbook for Police Recruits and Officers

Police Talkaddresses the most important need in law enforcement today; communication. As law enforcement becomes more complex and sophisticated, communication is more important than ever before. Police officers need expertise in conflict resolution, assertiveness, use of authority, interviewing, and a host of other skills. Today's emphasis on community policing calls upon officers to protect public safety while showing sensitivity to victims and citizens with special needs. Domestic violence is another area receiving intense attention, and it too requires a high degree of communication proficiency. Police Talkoffers concise, up-to-date instruction for officers facing these challenges. Scenarios and discussion questions bring the realities of modern police work right into the classroom. Both recruits and experienced officers can benefit from the information--always practical and often lifesaving--provided in this workbook.Reynolds, Jean is the author of 'Police Talk A Scenario-Based Communications Workbook for Police Recruits and Officers', published 2001 under ISBN 9780130895882 and ISBN 0130895881.
