Roy Ingleton

Inhaltsangabe

Times Literary Supplement, 11/7/97 - reviewed by David Ramsbotham
"Roy Ingleton demonstrates that there is no evidence to show that unarmed
police suffer more casualties than armed, when going about their normal
duties. The question will always be under review, and he is to be thanked
for the assistance that his book provides to those responsible for deciding
the answer."
International Journal of Police Science and Management, Vol 2, No 3, Dec 99
"The issue of whether routinely to arm the British police has been debated
for over 100 years ... Roy Ingleton"s book provides a dispassionate
examination of the issues surrounding this issue."
Contemporary Review, 1/10/97
"His style is clear and easy to read. By the end of the first chapter you
have learned some interesting facts that make you want to read on ... The
conclusion of the book I found just as fascinating as the rest of it. I am
glad he wrote it. Many things are now clearer in my mind.
