Good Book

Great overview of the career and the stressors that it puts on us. Even put into "Soldier" or "normal" terms. A little dry but this type of material always is. But the simplicity of his terminology and explanation makes it much easier to read than sitting through an equally presented lecture. Its also not overly indepth. Some authors tend to explain too much and lose the reader. I find that he does no. He gives examples, makes it quick, simple, and gets right to the point. Its also nice how he give first hand anonymous accounts of situations that have occured, to help explain what he's talking about.

Very helpful in explaining the physchological circumstances of being a police officer

This book should be read by all wanting not just to enter law enforcement but the criminal justice field in general. This is a very easy to read book, that took me less than a day to read. It presents several case scenarios and explains how to mentally prepare yourself to react in given situation. All examples are clearly defined and the techniques presented should be implemented.
