Jonathan Rubinstein spent over a year with the Philadelphia police force, riding second man in patrol cars on all shifts, and from this experience he describes every aspects of a policeman's working life: his conception of the place he polices; his sense of territory; the extent of his knowledge of the people he polices; his technique for surveillance of his area; his use of the tools of the trade to control people; his complicated relationships with his coworkers and his sergeant, who dominates his working life. And, of course, he deals extensively with the eternal problems of corruption and brutality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWritten with great insight and without pro- or anti-police bias, \u003ci\u003eCity Police\u003c\/i\u003e is rich in illustrative incidents and serves as an excellent model for future studies of police work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jonathan Rubinstein\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0374515557\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780374515553\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Farrar, Strauss \u0026amp; Giroux-3pl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/1980\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 498\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.29lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.22h x 5.41w x 1.41d","brand":"Jonathan Rubinstein","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44046313980159,"sku":"9780374515553","price":33.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8a82c5db-0921-49d3-b8cb-e8362de78161.jpg?v=1684983858","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/city-police-jonathan-rubinstein-9780374515553","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
