Offers a new understanding of the changing world of police departments and information technology's significant and undeniable influence on crime management

Criticises recent police anti-crime measures, arguing that they have increased social inequality. Argues for a new form of democratic policing.

Ethnographic fieldwork and formal linguistic analysis have traditionally been thought to be diametrically opposed. In this provocative analysis Peter Manning argues that these methods of qualitative research are complementary. After examining the potential benefits and limitations of each method of analysis, the author shows how a synthesis of the two is more powerful than either alone.
