Amid widespread debate about police ethics and behaviour, this stimulating book considers the fundamental role of officers and their relations with society.
Leading thinker Dominic Wood takes a moral philosophical perspective to the evidence base and literature. He sets out an up-to-date overview of ethics in policing and their impact and considers afresh the parameters of moral policing and the ways in which values are embedded in operations.
This is a timely contribution to discussions about the police and their legitimacy, and essential reading for all those studying, teaching and leading the profession.
