Book Details


First Sentence

"Crime prevention and loss prevention are closely allied fields differing primarily in their forms of management and sources of authority. A crime prevention officer is a public servant who possesses police powers. A loss prevention manager or security director works in the private sector and receives whatever authority he possesses from his em- ployer, but he is not granted the powers of a public law enforcement officer."
