Title: Emotional Survival For Law Enforcement
Product review: I retired ten years ago after a thirty-year career in law enforcement and found this book quite interesting, stressing the psychological impact that going from the high of hyper-vigilance while on duty, to the low of the detached mind while off duty. The book seems to center on the first few years of patrol duties of a police officer, and likely it should, for those are the "formative" years. One aspect of police work this book falls a little short on is the extreme negative impact continuous exposure to horrific crime scenes can have on an officer's human spirit. Which in many instances results in post-traumatic stress. Having said that, I feel this is a good book and well worth the read for anyone wanting to learn what really goes on behind the scenes of police work.
