Evidence-Based Policing by Jerry H Ratcliffe

What is Evidence-Based Policing (EBP) and how is it done? This book provides an answer to both questions, offering an introduction for undergraduate students and a hands-on guide for police officers wanting to know how to put principles into practice.

Evidence-based policing must engage a wider audience, including students and police officers new to the subjectJerry Ratcliffe’s accessible and practical book is an ideal introduction. It not only shows why EBP is so important, but also how to do policing with better evidence for better results. If every police officer could master the content of this book, the world would be a safer place.

Lawrence W. Sherman, Cambridge University and Honorary President, Society for Evidence-Based Policing

As a police practitioner who understands the complexity of evidence-based policing, I highly recommend Jerry’s new book which breaks it down into manageable bite-size chunks. With simple figures, insightful callouts, flowcharts, and short, easy-to-read chapters, this is the perfect guide to this emerging paradigm.

Renée Mitchell, Police Sergeant (Sacramento PD retd.) and President of the American Society of Evidence-Based Policing

Police leaders who are interested in understanding the knowledge base of their profession need this book. It helps executives make smart, informed decisions about new plans, programs, and initiatives they may be considering. It also gives leaders the information necessary to collaborate with academics on research projects that will benefit their agencies and the profession.

John Hall, Deputy Inspector, New York City Police Department and NIJ LEADS scholar

This book breaks down and practically explains evidence-based policing. Not only is it a useful guide for police officers wanting to understand if their strategies, tactics, or policies are having the desired impact, it should be used by researchers wanting to work with police to better understand evidence-based policing.
