Review: This is the best book on policing that I have ever read. It is not some boring textbook written by some college professor who has never made an arrest or even ridden in a police car. This book is informative, humorous and entertaining. Maple lays out a crime fighting strategy in an easy-to-understand, common sense manner. He also gives a few tips on the tactics to be employed using his strategy. The main point of his strategy: Map out the crime in your jurisdiction by location and time and deploy your forces to those locations. "Put cops on dots" and then hold people accountable for the crime rates in their areas of responsibility. It is a simple idea but it has hardly been employed by police agencies in the United States. Maple tells police managers how to proceed and how to get past problems in implementing the strategy. He then gives the reader tactics to use to catch even more crooks, including systematically turning each arrest into an opportunity to find other criminals, drug dealers and illegal guns. This book should become part of every police academy curriculum and added to every police promotional reading list. It is really that good.
