Community Policing and Problem Solving
Unique in perspective and comprehensive in coverage, this volume fills a gap in the literature by providing an exceptionally up-to-date and scholarly synthesis of the collective nationwide experience in implementing both community policing "and" problem-oriented policing. It explains the processes and terms in detail--what they mean and how they are applied, as well as how they are implemented and evaluated. It explores both historical and operational perspectives, and provides examples of existing strategies and future considerations. Author team has over 35 years combined police service and 25 years of academic experience. The authors examine the evolution of policing, changing people, crime, and policing, community oriented government, community oriented policing and problem solving, crime prevention, planning and implementation, changing the agency culture, police in a diverse society, evaluating COPPS initiatives and COPPS in foreign venues. For police practitioners and other interested in community policing and problem solving.

L.A. Birdmen
Although most credit Wilbur and Orville Wright with America’s first powered flight, two months before the brothers lifted off the sands of Kitty Hawk, a French immigrant named August Greth flew the California Eagle, an airship of his own design, across the skies of San Francisco. While the Wrights claimed they had invented a flying machine, Greth and the California aviators proved it in front of thousands of spectators at state fairs and festivals across the country. L.A.

Superando o Mito do Espantalho
Neste livro, os autores construíram um conhecimento alicerçado em uma breve, mas consistente revisão do processo histórico e legislativo que moldou o atual sistema policial brasileiro cotejada por uma visão crítica da realidade de seu funcionamento. Um conhecimento capaz de fornecer elementos de convicção que estimulem e motivem os policiais militares a exercerem um papel muito mais profundo, abrangente, complexo, pró-ativo e, assim, adequado ao que deles se espera. Um conhecimento que muito além de apresentar os porquês, evidencia estratégias e alternativas de atuação neste "novo" contexto. Um contexto em que a atuação policial não esteja limitada a mera presença policial ou a reação aos incidentes criminais, mas orientada para a resolução dos problemas de segurança pública em parceria com a comunidade.
