Who wrote the book 'Emotional Survival for Law Enforcement'?

• A. John Smith
• B. Jane Doe
• C. Michael Johnson
• D. Kevin Gilmartin

Answer: (D)

Identifying who wrote this notable police wellness book hinges on recalling the author. Kevin Gilmartin is the author of Emotional Survival for Law Enforcement. He explains how the job’s constant stress—long hours, exposure to danger, and strain on personal relationships—can affect an officer’s emotions, judgment, and performance, and he offers practical strategies to preserve emotional health and career longevity. This title has become a standard reference in training and wellness programs for law enforcement, which is why it’s commonly associated with sergeant prep materials. The other names aren’t linked to this work, so Gilmartin is the correct author.
