'After two years of the COVID pandemic we have become used to seeing the police as the main agency handling a global crisis but, despite that event that affected all mankind, we have yet to reflect on the lessons nor have we reflected on the lessons for the police and society from the policing of floods, natural and manmade disasters. This book is timely, the comparative approach is welcome and the global coverage a major asset.'Peter Neyroud, Associate Professor, University of Cambridge'This handbook provides critical insights and lessons learned during some of the world’s most significant and tragic events causing loss of property and life. Uniquely, the handbook doesn’t only look behind us for lessons learned, but also offers insights into current and future extreme events related to changing social and environmental conditions, making it an essential resource for current and future policing and public safety leaders as well as others within and outside of government.'James Burch, President, National Policing Institute 'The contributors to this handbook include police executives who have had to respond to mass shootings, terrorist attacks, riots, winter storms, floods, train wrecks, and the Covid pandemic. These kinds of extreme emergencies present different challenges from everyday policing. This book shares a wealth of practical knowledge with today's and tomorrow's police leaders.'Chuck Wexler, Executive Director of the Police Executive Research Forum'A handbook addressing the role of the police in responding to crises (be they natural or man-made) is long overdue. In this task, the editors have done a fine job of bringing together a range of academics and practitioners from across the world to engage with those issues and events which define this area of study. An integral element of this book are the critical commentaries which are used to reframe the recurrent themes within an academic context and, in turn, provoke further reflection and discussion. This comprehensive and thorough volume deserves to become a central resource in this area of police studies.'Tom Cockcroft, Professor of Legal and Social Justice, University of Central Lancashire (UCLan)
