    An up-to-date and comprehensive introduction, this text examines police administration from multiple perspectives:

    Systems perspective, highlighted throughout the text, emphasizes the interrelatedness among units and organizations.

    Traditional, structural perspective highlights administrative principles, management functions, and the importance of written guidelines.

    Human behavioral perspective focuses on the human element in organizations.

    Strategic management perspective deals with communications and information systems, performance evaluation, strategies and tactics, and prevailing and promising approaches to increasing effectiveness of police agencies.

    This edition streamlines coverage of management functions and organizational principles while providing a stronger emphasis on diversity principles and on developing police agencies as learning organizations. A concluding chapter covers contemporary issues, including community engagement, collaboration, globalization, racial profiling, mass media, cyber crime, technology, terrorism and homeland security.
