Product Description
Review
This books needs to be freely accessible to every operational police officer at the 'coal-face' of policing, as a basic tool in his everyday work. (Simon Dell - after 37 years operational policing )
Police Law is simply a wonderful police law book. It excels in its comprehensiveness, its use of simple language without footnotes; and its style of writing which makes one want to read it from end to end because of its logical, well-ordered presentation, sound research and authorativeness. Not many law books can boast of those qualities. It is simply the best, thanks to Oxford University Press. (Sally Ramage, The Criminal Lawyer )

The book includes discussion of important new regulations under the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000, as well as updates on the law relating to stop and search, conditional cautions, fixed penalty notices, and major changes to the defences of murder, and liability for encouraging or assisting suicide. In addition, a new chapter on offences against the administration of justice has been included in this edition. Comprehensive and easy to understand, Police Law is an indispensible everyday reference book for police officers, and is the only book covering all areas of police law. The book also provides a good source of information for members of the public who wish to refer to a legal text written in an accessible way.

This book shows all current legislation, including all PACE codes, and everything is broken up into clear tables. A very good buy for anyone needing to know the law!

I've used this book as a 'bible' for literally decades.(It was 'Butterworth's Police Law' when I started reading it ) If ever I had a doubt or query about law or practice - especially when I had asked all my knowledgeable colleagues who were also stumped - I checked Police Law and the answer was there. Clearly explained, always anticipating the next question from the reader. I have always found this a great book and consequently have always felt grateful to the authors for their knowledge and absolute reliability. I bought this latest edition today and was really saddened to find that Jack English had died. Richard Card made a fitting tribute (thank you to you too Richard) and the book included a very fine photograph of Jack. Rest in Peace Jack and may this book go on....
