Police
From the point of view of a prospective police cadet, it was a highly beneficial read. It provides an insight into what the job of a police patrolman entails (from observances of a sociologist/philosopher supplemented with interviews with several actual officers), into different personal styles of policing and attitudes toward it. It tries to identify and describe a desirable, "professional", policing attitude based on behavior of the exemplary interviewed officers, as well as the various ways it can be less than ideal - avoiding, cynical, aggressive. The book also hints at the character traits and world views of the "professional", exemplary officers - here I would have liked to see the book to go into greater depth.
