Overview

Philip Gospage was born in Rainham, Essex in 1956. He joined the Merseyside Police in 1977, patrolling the rough streets of Toxteth, before transferring to the London Metropolitan Force. When he was promoted to the rank of Sergeant, he specialised in 'pro-active' community policing and completed a 30-year career in East London. He was highly respected by his colleagues and he has been described by a leading Professor of Criminology as a leaning example of 'Natural Police'.In this book, the author explores the meaning of this term and identifies the soft skills that a Police officer should develop to be effective in the role. He also demonstrates how these skills can be put into practice by using real-life examples throughout his service. At a time when the conduct of the police, and its role in society, is under close scrutiny, the book makes an informed contribution to this debate.
