Snippets and Summary:

This is a book about police power: those who exercise it, those who would reform it, and those in the popular arts who are drawn to its political dramas, its cultural contradictions, and its fraternal mysteries.

"Cop Knowledge" Description:

The Open Library:

"Whether they appear in mystery novels or headline news stories, on prime-time TV or the silver screen, few figures have maintained such an extraordinary hold on the American cultural imagination as modern police officers. Why are we so fascinated with the police and their social and political power? What relation do these pervasive media representations bear to the actual history of modern policing?"--Cover.
