I am grateful to Jennifer Eberhardt of Stanford University who first introduced me to the science of implicit bias; that exposure changed the trajectory of my work. I also want to thank the many law enforcement professionals who, over the past 15 years, have shared their wisdom, ideas and stories that helped to produce the content of Chap. 3 of this book. I thank the following individuals who reviewed the book draft and provided helpful input: Chief Scott Cunningham of the Kernersville (NC) PD, retired LAPD Captain John Mutz, Lt. Scott Prell of the Cheektowaga (NY) PD, Captain Tony Raimondo of the Sanford (FL) PD, and Cheryl Staats of the Kirwan Institute for the Study of Race and Ethnicity. I am grateful to Cynthia Lum of
