The Move to Community Policing: Making Change Happen
Author: Merry Morash
Community policing continues to be of great interest to policy makers, scholars and, of course, local police agencies. Successfully achieving the transformation from a traditional policing model to community policing can be difficult. This book aims to illuminate the path to make that change as easy as possible. Morash and Ford have produced a contributed anthology with original articles from a variety of well-known researchers, police trainers and leaders.
They focus on:
- Recent research for developing data systems to shape police reform
- Changing the police culture to implement community policing
- Creating partnership strategies within police organizations and between police and community groups for successful community policing
- Anticipating future challenges

The Business Case for Enterprise-Class Wireless LANs
Author: Oisin Mac Alasdair
Understand wireless LAN business-case development, solutions, architecture, design, and deployment with this comprehensive guide
- Explains the business rationale behind deployment of wireless LANs, including ROI and TCO considerations
- Includes a clearly written technical overview of wireless LANs for managers, decision makers, business professionals
- Addresses WLAN deployment best practices with analysis of the business benefits
- Extensive case studies illustrate real-world implementations
The evolution of wireless LANs and the subsequent penetration into the enterprise market has moved at a faster rate than expected and is projected to accelerate further in the next couple years. IT executives need reference material that can help them establish a solid business case and form a financially sound implementation plan while appreciating the benefits, as well as the risks, of this technology. The Business Case for Enterprise-Class Wireless LANs takes a business approach to wireless networking. It focuses on the strategic and business justifications associated with WLAN deployment and less on the intricacies of the underlying technology. However, a baseline analysis of wireless LAN technologies is included, empowering the reader to understand complex decisions concerning the technology. Most books written on wireless LANs go into great technical detail and do not target the business audience; this book does not cover the technology to that degree and is written for a senior technical or management-level reader. The book provides advice to decision makers on issues they should consider; recommends strategies for dealing with importantissues; and provides specific advice, including templates, checklists and flowcharts covering how they should proceed. Throughout the book, reader friendly descriptions, quick reference sheets, diagrams and visual layouts aid to further explain all topics, and sidebar interviews provide authoritative business perspectives.
