Policing a Perplexed Society

Exploring critical questions surrounding policing, Sir Robert Mark delves into the complexities of law enforcement, including the implications of arming officers, the fairness of interrogations, and the treatment of demonstrators. He examines the balance between public safety and civil rights, and reflects on the justice system's handling of the guilty and the acquitted. Originally published in 1977, this work offers a thought-provoking analysis of the relationship between society and its police force.
