This collection of essays from distinguished scholars from around the world assesses the changes since then. It provides provocative and informative interpretations, evidence and argument, and will be of interest and value to anyone seeking to understand contemporary policing. Robert Reiner, London School of Economics and Political Science, UK 'This ambitious volume offers the definitive overview of transformations of policing in England for nearly a quarter of a century, with relevance to both the politics of crime and sociology, thus offering a renewed approach to policing in that country.' Revue de Science Criminelle et de Droit Pnal '...this book contributes high quality, intelligent essays on trajectories of policing. It provides much evidence and considered scholarship to help readers make up their own minds concerning the extent of continuity and change in policing since 1983 and whether the acknowledged changes represent "transformation."' Internet Law Book Reviews 'With all the shifting sands and changing tides, it can be hard to see where policing now stands compared to its position in 1983. This book makes understanding that new position a good deal easier.' British Journal of Criminology '...a collection of thoughtful and insightful papers about key issues in contemporary policing...there is much to be admired and to be grateful for...' The Howard Journal
