The book combines both qualitative and quantitative methods in which police officers, aided by Toch and his research team, designed and conducted their own survey of the rewards and stresses of the job. This innovative method of study identified not only problems but also significant organizational changes that could lead to enhanced job satisfaction. Toch's gentle probing provides new insights into the often misunderstood world of the law-enforcement officer and challenges departmental administrators to find creative ways of initiating institutional reform.
