      abstract = {What's it like to have the legal sanction to shoot and  kill? This book answers this, and many other questions  about the oft-times violent world inhabited by our nation's  police officers. Written by a cop-turned university  professor who interviewed scores of officers who have shot  people in the course of their duties, the book presents  firsthand accounts of the role that deadly force plays in  American police work. It tells how novice officers are  trained to think about and use the power they have over  life and death, explains how cops live with the awesome  responsibility that comes from the barrels of their guns,  reports how officers often hold their fire when they  clearly could have shot, presents accounts of what it's  like to be involved in shoot-outs, and details how shooting  someone affects officers who pull the trigger. From academy  training to post-shooting reactions, this book tells the  story of the role that extreme violence plays in the lives  of America's cops.},
