This book marks the tenth anniversary of the publication of the Inquiry into the events surrounding the investigation of the murder of Stephen Lawrence and examines various dimensions of the impact of Lawrence on policing policy and practice. It includes contributions from some of the key policing figures who were involved in post-Lawrence implementation and development programmes. As such the book will be of interest to both an academic police studies/criminology audience and police-practitioner audiences.
