Thematically organized, the book discusses issues of most concern to policing and the public. Topics include police accountability, assault on police and political leaders, police use of force, surveillance powers, computer crime control, and fighting cross-border crimes. The book will be of significant interest to police professionals, policing scholars, and policy makers interested in policing developments in Hong Kong and China.
