Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Police work isn't for everyone. Those who choose to answer the call rarely realize what they are getting themselves into. They're drawn to the excitement, the pursuit of justice, and the thrill of the chase. Once in uniform, they are confronted by the worst humanity has to offer, departments that seem designed to frustrate rather than support their officers, and friends and family incapable of understanding what they're going through. Being a cop is an incredibly rewarding way of life, but only if you can keep your head straight. This book aims to help you do just that.Inside you'll find 365 inspirational passages from history's greats. Each passage is accompanied by modern analysis from a street cop's perspective. It's nothing fancy, just frank observations honed over almost two decades of working the road. Whether you are considering a career in police work, or if you are already on the job, this book is for you. Read one passage per day as part of your beginning of shift ritual or devour it whole in one sitting. Either way, you'll enjoy the advice of some of the greatest minds and most accomplished people in history as you find you own answers to the job's most pressing challenges.
