The Structure of Police Organizations

This study examines, in a comparative fashion, the limitations or constraints imposed upon police organizational structure by agency size, technology employed, and agency environment. The book is based on data collected from 175 police organizations. It is not a study of the best way to organize the police, but looks at the way different organizations work so the reader can decide for himself.
