Summary:	This book summarizes a study conducted by RAND for the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD). The object of this book is to provide analyses and recommendations to assist the LAPD in meeting certain requirements and ultimately enabling LAPD to better serve the interests of the people of Los Angeles through improved training in five critical areas: use of force, search and seizure, arrest procedures, community policing, and diversity awareness.

Description
Summary:	The authors suggest that the first essential step to improving Los Angeles Police Department training is to establish and communicate a common foundation for police performance--a redefined professionalism that includes the tenets of corporateness, responsibility, and expertise as the mechanism for guiding the development and execution of its training.
