The Little Blue Book on Police Ethics

This book is a hands-on instructional guide on how to upgrade a law enforcement agency to a true profession. It begins with identifying the mechanical structures of a profession and how these should be applied to a law enforcement agency. It then moves into the virtue elements of a true profession and how to instill these into officers. The book concludes by viewing a number of worldviews to determine which worldviews contribute positively to the law enforcement profession. The final chapters give suggestions on how these should be implemented in a department and then in a community.
