Book excerpt: Stability. Commitment. Love. I want it all, and I refuse to settle for anything less. Being stood up by a blind date? That's par for the course. I knew the pitfalls of putting myself out there…again. But why waste a sitter and good night out when there's a hot guy licking his wounds at the bar just a few feet away? Unattached. Childless. Uncomplicated. I like my life just the way it is. The only commitments I'm into are the ones I made to God and my Country as a Marine and to protect and serve as a civilian. Relationships? They are one minefield I'd rather not cross. That is until kismet slides onto the bar stool next to me. Now I'm beginning to question everything in my life that I've held onto with an unbreakable conviction. Lust. Love. A white picket fence. Rachel is a lethal combination for a man like me…she's gorgeous, sassy, independent and as Isoon finds out…a single mother. Minefield or not, I can't fight my feelings for Rachel or her adorable toddler. There's only one question is left to be answered. Can a man like me handle being cop blocked?

Download or read book Street Cop written by George C. Klein and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-10-06 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an ethnography of street-level policing in the United States and offers an analysis with valuable lessons for today’s law enforcement officers. Author George C. Klein, sociologist and former police officer, explores the characteristics of policing in a suburb outside of large Midwestern city in the United States. As a participant-observation fieldworker, he functioned as an ethnographic researcher, recording with a sociological eye the "real world" tasks of policing, including the ordinary as well as the more remarkable aspects of day-to-day law enforcement. He approaches the data with three levels of analysis, looking at embedded issues in policing, such as discretion, danger, corruption, cynicism, race, and class; a mid-range analysis that examines police work as an example of street-level bureaucracy; and a global analysis assessing the entrenched roles of race, class, and demography in police work, as well as, society, in the U.S. This book focuses on the need for police officers to solve social problems that other institutions in society are unwilling, or unable, to solve. It examines a myriad of issues, such as police socialization, the use of force by police officers, stress levels and suicide risk factors, disparate styles of policing, police militarization, de-escalation, and more. With compelling detail, the author helps the reader understand the turmoil regarding policing in the United States today. It is ideal for police professionals as well as students and scholars of criminal justice, criminology, sociology, psychology, history, political science and journalism.
