177 pages. Charts and graphs. "In the novel and on the movie screen, the suave detective and the hard-bitten-but-sensitive street cop get the glory. But behind the scenes in the real world, a crucial foundation of good police work is the collection, assimilation, analysis, and communication of information about events, places and people. Crime and intelligence analysis is the back0office process that frequently underlies the solved crime, the ameliorated problem, and th effective prevention strategy. . . . Osborne's examination, focuses no only on the analytical process, but on the annalysts--critical actors who function with relative anonymiity." Tight binding. Clean pages. Almost no wear.
