Patricia Steinhoff (1993) reviewed five books in her review essay “Pursuing the Japanese Police” but singled out my Forces of Order (Bayley 1991) for extended commentary because it was a “classic” that epitomized the “benign,” “friendly,” and “answers-for-America” (p. 830) school of writing about the Japanese police. Her review of my work, as well as the others, was insightful, knowledgeable, well argued, and fair. Some of her comments were strongly worded, but there's no fun in writing a review essay if you can't get off a few zingers.
