Palgrave Dictionary of Public Order Policing, Protest and Political Violence Reviews

The Palgrave Dictionary of Public Order Policing, Protest and Political Violence is a significant contribution to the reference material on the policing of protest and political violence. As far as the reviewer can establish, no other work of a reference nature of comparable size or content has appeared in recent years. ... this book is most likely to be if use to British libraries, mainly in the academic sector and especially where politics or policing is studied. (Tony Chalcraft, Reference Reviews, Vol. 29 (7), 2015)

This is a very timely book indeed, a novel approach giving the reader both a clear summary of different subjects and events and a guide to further reading: timely because not for many decades have issues in relation to public order been so divisive.

- Ian, Lord Blair of Boughton, Commissioner, Metropolitan Police, 2005-8

This timely volume is a lucid contribution to the growing knowledge of policing of public order, in an era when the role of policing in the development of democracy has never been more important. It is an essential reference for anyone trying to understand the complex issues police face in preserving both peace and dialogue. - Lawrence W. Sherman, Wolfson Professor of Criminology, University of Cambridge, UK
