Title: Gender and policing
First published: 2000
Description: "Jennifer Brown and Frances Heidensohn pool their established expertise on policing, crime and gender to look at women's experiences in law-enforcement agencies across the globe. Drawing on the findings of the first ever international comparative research on this subject, they show that policewomen share many experiences, wherever they come from, but that there are also key differences related to traditions, systems, styles and cultures of policing.

The book raises vital issues about law, order and the achievement of change in criminal justice policies."--BOOK JACKET.
