More DescriptionBlackstone's Police Manuals are the leading police reference texts in the UK. In addition to being the only offical study guides for the police promotion examinations in England and Wales, and a recognised text for student police officers, the Manuals have quickly established themselves as the definitive reference sources for all who have involvement with police law and procedure. The Manuals have been written in consultation with police forces across England and Wales, and are endorsed by the National Policing Improvement Agency, for OSPRE Part 1 Promotion Examinations. Blackstone's Police Manual Volume 1 Crime: 2008 covers all aspects of criminal law and procedure from a police officer's perspective. The 2008 edition has been updated to incorporate all recent legislative developments, including the Fraud Act 2007, Emergency Workers (Obstruction) Act 2006, and the Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups Act 2006. Topical subjects covered include controlled drugs and their misuse, assault and racially aggravated offences, state of mind and protection of children, witnesses and jurors. This year, the Manuals have also undergone a full revision in order to make them more accessible, relvant, and focussed. The Manuals are widely used in the professional development of police officers in a variety of roles making them essential reading for anyone with an interest in police and criminal law. Whether you are a serving police officer or police trainer, a practitioner, advisor, or researcher, Blackstone's Police Manuals 2008 are an essential purchase.
