by RobertReiner (Author)
The policing of Britain is a controversial topic that continues to arouse very diverse passions. At the centre of the debate stand the country's forty-three Chief Constables. Some have achieved celebrity, but little is really known about this powerful elite. Based on his exclusive interviews with the majority of the Chief Constables of England and Wales, Robert Reiner's picture of modern law enforcement reveals their opinions on the selection of the most senior officers, their duties and responsibilities, and their views on the future of the force. This book should be of interest to students of and those interested in sociology, political science, the police and the state of modern Britain.
