Book excerpt: Being a police officer is an incredibly important service to society. Every day, police men and women put their own lives at risk in order to keep the citizens of this nation safe. Law enforcement is one of the three major components of the criminal justice system in the United States, the other two being the courts and the correction facilities. As the common name of the profession suggests, the job is to ensure effective enforcement of the law and to strive to maintain balance and security in the country. Depending on the post to which a police officer is assigned, his or her job would range from protecting local citizens from public disturbances to investigating and finding solutions to national security threats. The government makes it a point to employ only those who are best-suited for the job and are able to maintain the integrity of the profession. This is why the process of becoming a police officer is subject to a stringent application and selection process. Every requirement asked of you when you apply to become a police officer is intended to prove that you are competent and that you possess the right credentials and attitude towards law enforcement. Don't be daunted by the thought of the application process though. This book is designed to prepare you for the process of becoming a police officer and starting your career in law enforcement.

This book was released on 2021-07-14 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is for anyone who is interested in learning about terrorism in all its forms. For over four decades I have studied terrorism, trained to deal with it, dealt with it, and taught it as an academic discipline. Over these decades I have seen an already complicated topic become even more difficult to understand. The field of study has grown as the world has gotten smaller. Ask anyone what terrorism is and you will get a myriad of answers. Even in academia the topic has become more convoluted. As with crime, there are many theories espoused as to why one commits terrorism and why terrorism exists. It appears to me that many academics, researchers, policymakers, authors, and journalists in general view this topic with a tainted lens based on their own world view. Some act as apologists for terrorists while often doing so in a subtle manner. Some try to expand the definition and concept well beyond the scope that it should be found. I have students who do this all the time. We seem to be living in an emotion driven society instead of a fact driven one. A relatively new trend is to use the word extremist as a synonym for terrorist. There are several problems with this. First, this creates a net widening effect which lumps those who we disagree with in that net. Second, who gets to decide who or what is extreme? Third, and finally, it waters down and muddies the study of “terrorism”. This does not mean that an extremist might not become a terrorist. Having pointed out the minefield terrorism can be my goal is to offer an academically sound real-world fact-based explanation on terrorism. Terrorism can be a politically charged topic. I ask that as you read this book you check what is written, digest it, and make your own decisions on what you have read. It is highly likely some of your thinking will be challenged. When I began to teach homeland security which includes terrorism, I made a promise to myself that I would never be politically correct. Political correctness is what some terrorists rely on and is one of our worse habits. We will cover several overarching themes. We will look at what terrorism is and is not. We will explore the historical roots of terrorism. We will discuss the causes of terrorism as well as terrorist typologies. Next, we will examine domestic terrorism and international and ethnic terrorism. Then we will dive into religion and terrorism and spend time looking at Islamic terrorism and Jihad. We will examine asymmetric warfare including terrorists’ tactics and weapons of choice. We will discuss terrorist financing an explore counterterrorism.
