"An excellent reference that helps apply the law relating to policing and criminal justice. Essential for new police officers." (Head of Department, St Helens College.)


I would recommend this book to those students wishing to follow a career in the police service, as it gives a comprehensive overview of the laws required and how they can be used by Bobbies in their jobs. Good content and good knowledge checks within.

A smashing book that provides enough detail in the topics for most students. This book will feature on our reading list to the students and may become more essential later in the year but for now it will supplement the course requirements

This a very handy guide to Policing Law in the UK for anyone looking for how the police works. The structure of the book is effective in dealing with the issues of police and the law.
