The End of Policing by Alex S. Vitale

A very good introduction to police abolition. Each chapter focuses on a specific issue and analyses why our current approach is bad, positives and shortcomings of proposed reforms and police-free alternatives to deal with the issue.
The book is very American-centered, although it references other countries every now and then, but a lot of stuff still applies elsewhere.
