This compelling and often startling book answers this, and many other questions about the oft-times violent world inhabited by our nation's police officers. Written by a cop-turned university professor who interviewed scores of officers who have shot people in the course of their duties, \u003ci\u003eInto the Kill Zo\u003c\/i\u003ene presents firsthand accounts of the role that deadly force plays in American police work. This brilliantly written book tells how novice officers are trained to think about and use the power they have over life and death, explains how cops live with the awesome responsibility that comes from the barrels of their guns, reports how officers often hold their fire when they clearly could have shot, presents hair-raising accounts of what it's like to be involved in shoot-outs, and details how shooting someone affects officers who pull the trigger. From academy training to post-shooting reactions, this book tells the compelling story of the role that extreme violence plays in the lives of America's cops.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eAcknowledgments ix \u003cp\u003eIntroduction 1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Choosing the Badge and Gun 15\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 Basic Training 33\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 Holding Fire 57\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Pulling the Trigger 83\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 When the Smoke Clears 203\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEpilogue 272\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGlossary 275\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNotes 283\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbout the Author 289\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Psychology [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Psychology\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Psychology%20%5BJM%5D%22\"\u003eJM\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Jossey-Bass","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52501428764952,"sku":"9780787986032","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780787986032_141776.jpg?v=1786237929","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/into-the-kill-zone-a-cops-eye-view-of-deadly-force-paperback-softback-9780787986032","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
