3.0 out of 5 stars Duller side of average, May 3, 2000
This review is from: Policing Space: Territoriality and the Los Angeles Police Department (Hardcover)
This work was insightful but it suffers from its largely anecdotal structure. Through the entire work, the author employs a "present a short scenario - analyze the short scenario" method. Though the author's analysis is commendable, his technique is rather tiring after a few chapters. However, if you are patient and seriously interested in the aspects of police patrol and territoriality, you should enjoy it... just be prepared for minor de ja vu.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic!, May 11, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Policing Space: Territoriality and the Los Angeles Police Department (Paperback)
All I can say is that this is a wonderful book. I had to read it for his class (A fantastic professor as well) and it ended up being a pleasure to read. I couldn't put it down. It ia facinating and truthful look at the LAPD! I would recomend it to anyone who is interested in policing!

1.0 out of 5 stars Awful!, July 11, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Policing Space: Territoriality and the Los Angeles Police Department (Paperback)
As a police officer, this book was disgusting. Obviously written by someone who hasn't seen a metropolitan city's guts for the last 20 years.
Written by somebody safe in the halls of academia, safe behind their computer screen. Try doing it longer than a "ride along", and see how your viewpoint is then.
