The author very critically and analytically examines the various aspects of the policing in Indian context. The book also briefly, but lucidly deals with the police force and policing in United States, Britain, Australia and Latin America. The author also managed to detect the various obstacles being faced by the police force in the area of free investigation and how their confidence and morale are eroded. The book also maps out the ways for police force to tackle and combat the terrorists and terrorism in very effective manner. The need of the proper training for the police force is also stressed very rightly. The unnecessary adversary between press and police force is corroborated by the author very convincingly.

The traumatic events in Punjab in the eighties and early nineties with the rise of Khalistani terrorism shook the entire nation. This book brings together all aspects of the problem in its national and international dimensions, a brilliant analysis of why it happened and provides an answer to what must be done to overcome the menace of terrorism and secessionism to preserve the unity and integrity of our country. About The Author:- Born on October 4, 1920, Satya Pal Dang graduated from Government College, Lahore. A freedom fighter and a student leader, he rose to be general secretary of the All India Students Federation. He met his future wife Vimla Bakaya when both were active in the Lahore Students Union. Since early fifties the Dangs have lived in Chheharta (Amritsar). They built up the first municipal committee here as a model municipality and Mr. Dang was its president from 1953 to 1967, when he entered the Punjab Assembly after defeating the then Chief Minister Gurmukh Singh Musafir in Amritsar West, retaining the seat until 1980. He was a minister for a brief period in the first non-Congress ministry where he set a record for his honesty, efficiency and simple living. He and his wife stuck to Amritsar throughout the tragic years of terrorism, organizing the people, giving relief to victims of terrorism and building communal harmony. The Dangs set another example by voluntarily withdrawing from elective posts in the CPI and outside. In 1997, he was honored with the Padma Bhushan award.

Roy. 8vo., First Edition, with title-vignette and very numerous illustrations in the text; pictorial boards, backstrip lettered in black, a fine copy. Surely the definitive account of Fairbairn's pre-war service with the Shanghai Municipal Police, in which arduous context he developed his 'defendu' system of self-defence and compiled the immensely influential self-defence manuals now forever linked to his name. Indeed, it was in the pages of 'Scientific Self-Defence' (1931) that the immortal Fairbairn-Sykes Knife was born. The 'Commando Knife', as it was later known, was standard issue for British and some Allied Special Forces throughout WWII, and became one of the iconic hand weapons of the conflict. EXCEEDINGLY SCARCE.
