Description:
This book armed activists on the streets as well as the many who have become concerned about police abuse with a critical analysis and ultimately a redefinition of the very idea of policing. The book contends that when we talk about police and police reform, we speak the language of police legitimation through the art of euphemism. So state sexual assault become "body-cavity search," and ruthless beatings become "non-compliance deterrence."
A Field Guide to the Police is a study of the indirect and taken-for granted language of policing, a language we're all forced to speak when we talk about law enforcement. In entries like "Police dog," "Stop and frisk," and "Rough ride," the authors expose the way "copspeak" suppresses the true meaning and history of policing. Like any other field guide, it reveals a world that is hidden in plain view. The book argues that a redefined language of policing might help chart a future free society.
Now in an expanded and updated edition, including explanations of newsmaking new terms, like "dead names", "kettling", and "qualified immunity", as well as a new foreword by leading criminal justice advocate Craig Gilmore

Do not fear studying this topic, nor encountering objectors to the truth.
Format: Paperback
The book is written so well. It provides incredible graphs that summarize each chapter and the premise of the book. Gary Habermas is a prolific author of this topic and has to be one of the greatest contemporary Christian historians. Additionally, Michael R. Licona who also is a fantastic author and apologist co-authors the book.
The book provides arguments that are accepted by the majority of historians as to the veracity of the resurrection account. The key to the book is it aids the defender of this truth to not have to include supporting the scripture as part of the argument which can allow the arguer a way to bypass indisputable truths. Early in the book, this is called the Five Facts ( 4 + 1) The first 4 are the strongest arguments and there's the additional Empty Tomb presentation as well.
The 4 are:
1. Jesus' Death by Crucifixion
2. Disciples' BELIEFS that Jesus Appeared
3. Conversion of the Church Persecutor Paul
4. Conversion of the Skeptic James
These historical facts are clearly portrayed and defended and as the book continues arguments are supplied and answered.
Finally, there's a disc with the book "The Resurrection Challenge" !

Superficial, generally you expect more from such books.
Format: Kindle
Weak description of standard views, often very superficial and so on. I expected a little bit more. More basics, more technical aspects. Videos are not available in kindle
