NYPD Battles Crime: Innovative Strategies In Policing

By Eli B. Silverman

From the cover: “"In NYPD Battles Crime Eli B. Silverman analyzes the managerial underpinnings of the Giuliani revolution, epitomized, in his view, by the innovative crime-tracking system known as 'Compstat.' Mr. Silverman argues that previous police reforms paved the way for Giuliani's success; his book, however, is of greater interest in showing just how radical a departure the new crime philosophy was. ... [It] is a delight to read about a wildly successful--if, in retrospect, self-evident-idea: that policing is helpless without both data and the means to hold officers accountable for acting on it." -Heather MacDonald, Wall Street Journal

"Silverman has done a masterful job here, combining encyclopedic knowledgeof the politics and history of the city and the NYPD with unprecedented access at every departmental level, a first-rate academician's keen eye and objectivity, and the street smarts and candor of a life-long New Yorker. The result is a volume that should be mandatory reading for all police and public officials, researchers, students of crime and organizations, and concerned citizens. I can't recommend this book too highly." -James J. Fyfe, Professor of Criminal Justice,Temple University

Special Care: Improving The Police Response To the Mentally Disabled

By Gerard R. Murphy

From the Preface:”The policies of deinstitutionalization, first implemented over fifteen years ago and designed to transfer the care of the mentally ill from hospitals to local communities, have affected many public and private groups of society. A few groups have found themselves with a disproportionate amount of additional responsibilities not always with a concomitant allocation of resources. Law enforcement is one of these segments.”
