There are numerous benefits to reading that go beyondprofessional development. Reading expands the mind, improves cognitive function, increases yourvocabulary, reduces stress and reduces symptoms of depression.We recommend that you go through the pages of the Public Safety Reading List and identify a book thatinterests you. Set a goal for yourself whether it’s to read one book this year, one book per quarter or onebook a month.We included hyperlinks that take you to the book so you can learn more about it, read reviews andpurchase.
