This review is from: Criminal Justice Administration: Strategies for the 21st Century (Hardcover)
This book serves both the criminal justice practitioner and student. Knowing the author personally from being a former student, he is the definitive author for this well rounded text. Former Deputy Chief of the LAPD as well as Chief of Santa Ana, California Police, Dr. Cronkite has the education and experience, and it shows in this text. It focuses on the administrative side of the criminal justice system, not just police. It covers eras in management, strategies, and tactics for motivation as well. News examples and discussion questions make this useful for class text and also a must have for any reference in criminal justice.
