Author Description

This two volume pack consisting of a Police Investigator's Manual and Distance Learning Workbook is essential material for the Initial Crime Investigators' Development Programme. Based on the bestselling Blackstone's Police Manuals, it draws on material from three of the current Manuals (Crime, Evidence and Procedure, and General Police Duties), setting out those sections that the NSLEC Centre for Investigative Skills has identified as essential material for the ICIDP. These are: Property Offences; Assaults, Drugs, Firearms and Defences; Sexual Offences and Offences Against Children and Other Vulnerable Persons; and Evidence. Now in its second edition, this popular set is fully updated with particular reference to the revised PACE Codes of Practice and the Police Reform Act 2002. Three new key chapters on drugs, firearms and homicide have been added and both books in the set have a new, accessible page design which will aid learning.
