Evidence-based policing must engage a wider audience, including students and police officers new to the subject. Jerry Ratcliffe's accessible and practical book is an ideal introduction. It not only shows why EBP is so important, but also how to do policing with better evidence for better results. If every police officer could master the content of this book, the world would be a safer place.
Lawrence W. Sherman, Cambridge University and Honorary President, Society for Evidence-Based Policing
As a police practitioner who understands the complexity of evidence-based policing, I highly recommend Jerry's new book which breaks it down into manageable bite-size chunks. With simple figures, insightful callouts, flowcharts, and short, easy-to-read chapters, this is the perfect guide to this emerging paradigm.
Renee Mitchell, Police Sergeant (Sacramento PD retd.) and President of the American Society of Evidence-Based Policing
Police leaders who are interested in understanding the knowledge base of their profession need this book. It helps executives make smart, informed decisions about new plans, programs, and initiatives they may be considering. It also gives leaders the information necessary to collaborate with academics on research projects that will benefit their agencies and the profession.
John Hall, Deputy Inspector, New York City Police Department and NIJ LEADS scholar
This book breaks down and practically explains evidence-based policing. Not only is it a useful guide for police officers wanting to understand if their strategies, tactics, or policies are having the desired impact, it should be used by researchers wanting to work with police to better understand evidence-based policing.
