What Cops See - Eye-Opening Insights into Police Work and the Human Side of Crime

Pasquale De Marco

Sinossi

In this eye-opening book, police officers from across the country share their firsthand experiences and insights into the world of policing. They discuss the challenges they face, the impact that their job has on their personal lives, and the importance of community policing.

Through the officers' stories, we learn about the realities of police work, from the mundane to the life-changing. We learn about the challenges of dealing with crime, violence, and mental illness. We also learn about the importance of de-escalation and the need for police reform.

This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the complex world of police work. It is also a valuable resource for police officers and their families, as well as for policymakers and community leaders who are working to improve policing in their communities.

One of the most important things that this book reveals is the human side of police officers. They are not just faceless figures in uniforms. They are people with families, friends, and loved ones. They have hopes and dreams, just like everyone else.

But they also have a unique set of challenges that they face every day. They see the worst that society has to offer, and they often have to make life-or-death decisions in a split second.

This book gives us a glimpse into the world of police officers and the challenges they face. It is a powerful and moving account that will change the way you think about policing.

This book is also a call to action. It is a call for us to support our police officers and to work together to create safer communities. We need to give police officers the resources they need to do their jobs effectively. We also need to hold them accountable when they abuse their power.

By working together, we can create a world where everyone is safe and respected, and where police officers are seen as heroes, not villains.

Artificial Intelligence in the...

Emma Clarke

Artificial intelligence (AI) undoubtedly sparks debate among teachers. Questions arise about the trajectory of this new technology: where will it take us?; how will we differentiate between student-authored work and AI-generated content?; what impact will it have on the dynamics of learning and teaching within schools? These are all crucial topics for discussion, yet AI has already become an integral part of our reality, and Gemma Clark firmly believes that embracing its potential is in our best interests.
In an era defined by technological advancements, Artificial Intelligence in the Primary Classroom stands as an indispensable resource that holds the key to transforming teaching and learning. For educators burdened by bureaucratic tasks that divert precious time from actual teaching, this book offers a lifeline. It showcases how AI-powered tools can alleviate administrative burdens, enabling teachers to focus more on crafting personalised and imaginative lessons that resonate with young minds. From automating report-writing processes to facilitating content creation, the book imparts tangible methods to streamline workflows and elevate teaching quality. Other examples include:

- Spelling Lessons: Save time when planning your spelling lessons by using AI to automatically generate a comprehensive list of phonemes or 'sounds suitable for teaching young children.'
- Mindfulness in the Classroom: If you are interested in incorporating mindfulness games and activities to assist children in relaxation and focus, AI can provide valuable suggestions for fostering pupil (and staff) wellbeing.
- PE Lessons: You don't have to be an expert in sport to teach PE. Whether it's tennis, football, rugby or running, AI can offer suggestions for activities, warm-ups and cool-downs to use in your PE lessons.
- Art Lessons: AI can be an excellent resource for planning art lessons, especially when seeking suggestions to emphasize one of the eight elements, such as line, shape, form, colour, value, texture, space, and value.
- Maths Lessons: As with spelling, AI can significantly reduce the time spent on creating maths questions and simplify the process of differentiation.Artificial Intelligence in the Primary Classroom is filled with practical strategies, engaging activities and useful tips and tricks that will save teachers time and energy as well as transferrable lesson plans with step-by-step instructions. Backed up by real-world examples throughout, this book empowers teachers to embrace AI as a tool in fostering enhanced learning experiences, while also reclaiming invaluable time for pedagogical creativity.

Ottoman Empire’s Worst Defeats...

Editors Charles River

In the wake of taking Constantinople, the Ottoman Empire would spend the next few centuries expanding its size, power, and influence, bumping up against Eastern Europe and becoming one of the world’s most important geopolitical players. It was a rise that would not truly start to wane until the 19th century. 	The long agony of the “sick man of Europe,” an expression used by the Tsar of Russia to depict the falling Ottoman Empire, could almost blind people to its incredible power and history. Preserving its mixed heritage, coming from both its geographic position rising above the ashes of the Byzantine Empire and the tradition inherited from the Muslim Conquests, the Ottoman Empire lasted more than six centuries. Its soldiers fought, died, and conquered lands on three different continents, making it one of the few stable multiethnic empires in history, and likely one of the last. Thus, it’s somewhat inevitable that the history of its decline is at the heart of complex geopolitical disputes, as well as sectarian tensions that are still key to understanding the Middle East, North Africa and the Balkans.  
	When studying the fall of the Ottoman Empire, historians have argued over the breaking point that saw a leading global power slowly become a decadent empire. The defeat in the Battle of Lepanto stopped the Ottomans from pushing further into the Mediterranean, and the Battle of Vienna in 1683 was certainly an important turning point for the expanding empire, as the defeat of Grand Vizier Kara Mustafa Pasha at the hands of a coalition led by the Austrian Habsburg dynasty, Holy Roman Empire and Polish-Lithuanian commonwealth marked the end of Ottoman expansionism. It was also the beginning of a slow decline during which the Ottoman Empire suffered multiple military defeats, found itself mired by corruption, and had to deal with the increasingly mutinous Janissaries (the Empire’s initial foot soldiers).

Passive Aggression - Indirectly...

Cito Harder

Passive aggression is a form of indirect expression of hostility, where individuals communicate negative feelings, frustration, or anger without openly addressing them. Rather than confronting an issue head-on, the person engages in behaviors that subtly undermine or resist others, often making it difficult to pinpoint the exact cause of tension. These actions are often seen as passive because the aggressor avoids direct confrontation, preferring instead to express their displeasure in subtle, often disguised ways. While passive aggression can sometimes seem harmless or even humorous, it can cause significant distress and damage to relationships over time.
Understanding passive aggression requires an exploration of the psychological mechanisms behind it. People who exhibit passive aggressive behavior often struggle with direct confrontation. This may stem from fear of rejection, a lack of assertiveness, or an inability to express anger healthily. In many cases, these individuals are unable or unwilling to articulate their true emotions and instead choose passive-aggressive tactics to deal with frustration. This behavior can manifest in a range of actions, including procrastination, forgetfulness, silent treatment, sarcasm, and even sabotage.
One of the challenges of dealing with passive aggression is that it is often hidden beneath seemingly innocuous actions or words. For example, someone might agree to help with a task but intentionally delay or perform it poorly, thus conveying their resistance without direct confrontation. Similarly, someone might offer backhanded compliments or use sarcasm to indirectly express contempt while maintaining a facade of politeness. These subtle acts of hostility can leave the recipient confused, frustrated, and unsure of how to respond, as the negative feelings are often not openly acknowledged.
