Jetmore Hits it on the Head.
I couldn't put this one down. I've been looking for something that addresses the things I've been trying to deal with on the job, and this book nailed it!It doesn't give you all the answers, just the right encouragement to keep looking.
I would say this one's a must for anyone in law enforcement or any stressful field.

How do you determine the "right" thing to do?
Dr. Jetmore, a law enforcement veteran of 21 years, challenges students and veterans alike to awaken their souls and become "warriors." Using "war stories" and the "ancient philosophy and code of honor used by King Arthur's Knights of the Round Table," Dr. Jetmore provides a concise yet encompassing work of challenges.This work recounts stories of actions that police officers take in the daily conduct of their duties, only to be questioned later by the public. Such exposure to values conflicts subject officers to both psychological and physical stress.
Dr. Jetmore challenges all who read this work to "take control of their destiny," and seek professional and private development. He even speaks the previously "unspeakable" inner sould reactions to years of affiliation with traumatic events.
I suspect many in law enforcement will disagree with Dr. Jetmore. All the reason those that are tasked with protecting us need to read and review his work.
