Format:Paperback
This 2nd edition has brought the A-Z of Policing Law fully up to date and the work now covers 800 offences including legislation applicable to the Metropolis, the Criminal Justice and Police Act 2001 and the Vehicle (Crimes) Act 2001. If you are a police officer, special constable or criminal lawyer you will recognise that there is a need for a concise guide to the vast range of criminal offences which form the majority of your workload. This book uses an easy-to-use dictionary format to provide such a guide. Designed for users with some knowledge of the law, this book is aimed at those with their feet on the ground. The 2nd edition has also been adapted to give assistance to those police officers studying for their promotion examinations.

Format:Paperback
A wonderful little book that's easily carried and still acts as an easy-to-read dictionary of offences and police powers. All the offences that any police officer is ever likely to come across in their day-to-day duties. It is even kept up to date through a web site... so that, unlike some other police law books, it will not need replacing every 12 months.
Format:Paperback
The A-Z of Police Law, the title say's it all! It covers every aspect that you would need to know on the streets. It gives a clear and precise explanation of all the offences that are listed in the book. It does not complicate the law, and is very easy to understand.
