Description
It is always a volatile situation when a police officer is the perpetrator of domestic violence; it is an explosive situation when both the abuser and victim are officers. Fully comprehending the dynamics requires understanding the network of power within which abusive officers operate. Crossing the Threshold is the first book to explore the profession's historical treatment of women and minorities and officer-involved domestic abuse in terms of institutional power and control.  While written primarily for women in law enforcement, it speaks to any women working in a traditionally male-dominated environment.
