“As
humans, although we have the ability to be multifaceted, we tend to be
one-dimensional. We favor views and perspectives that make us feel good or come
easy for us. Although the ideal police officer is multifaceted, we know that we are
going to encounter an officer who practices either the letter of the law or the
spirit of the law. So, how do we combat this inevitability in our favor? While
there are no "sure-fire" ways of dealing with human dynamics, there
are ways of positioning ourselves into a more positive light. Although, the two
perspectives are different, we are still dealing with human beings that have
emotions, experiences and perspectives in line with most of humanity.” (Excerpt
from “Inside the Mind of Police Officers: The Epitome of Power”)
Atlanta, GA—December 5, 2014---Author and former Atlanta
police officer Edward Brown has written a book titled “Inside the Mind of
Police Officers: The Epitome of Power,” as a response to the recent
controversial police killings that have plagued the media. This book attempts
to provide an honest account of what goes on inside the mind of police officers
from domestic abuse to racial profiling to abuse of power. “Inside the Mind of
Police Officers…” explores the inextricable relationship between the judicial system,
the political process and its effect on minority communities. Additionally,
the book discusses the symptoms that give rise to incidents like the killings
of Michael Brown and Eric Garner. “Inside the Mind of Police Officers: The
Epitome of Power” is a guide for laypersons to understand the psychology of
police officers, which means that citizens can protect their life and liberty
by forming positive alliances with police personnel.
Edward Brown said, “The first draft of this book came
about a few years after the Rodney King incident, but had a few iterations over
the years. With the current contentious relationship between the police and the
Black community, I thought it would be valuable to share my research and
experience with individuals looking for legitimate answers to this conundrum. The
incendiary environment that currently exists can be traced to actions by the
police as well as the Black community. Although I don’t point any fingers, I
strongly emphasize the notion of personal responsibility and education as the
keys to transforming an adversarial relationship.”
Edward Brown, M.S., is a researcher and lead instructor
for Core Edge Police Pro, a leadership training company for police supervisors
and managers. Ed is a former Atlanta
police officer and has trained police command staffs and supervisors throughout the
U.S. on communication and leadership development.
He has advanced legal training from the University of
Dayton School of Law and a master’s degree from Mercer University in Public
Safety Leadership.
Ed is the author of nine books including: Police Leadership: The Morale Driven Police
Department and The A-Team: How to Be
a Top Police Department in Recruiting, Training and Retaining Employees
available at Amazon Kindle.

This book goes far beyond the police, the violence, and the disorder that now plagues our land. Though it was written by a former police officer, it did not go unnoticed that since the police interact with the entire public at all levels; they have massive insight into the entire public at all levels. I think it overlays all services impacting people, places, & things. It is a worthy read for all ages; however, it should be mandatory in our schools. Because of this, I have shared an excerpt with my Commissioner. Because of his work as a law enforcement officer and his obviously brilliant mind, Mr. Brown has outlined the impact of a citizen’s personal accountability and development and/or the lack there of on their community and their lives. While, the book is only 25 pages, and this probably was not his intent, it speaks volumes about Power, Affluence, and Success. THIS BOOK SHOULD BE MANDATORY IN OUR SCHOOLS.
