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.

Crime Reviews

Review from previous edition
"The new author of this year's version should be complimented for his diligence and persistent attention to detail. He should also be commended for the amount of work that he has applied in the formulation and editing of the new Fraud Act following the removal of Deception related offences as a
result of the introduction of this new legislation. I was very impressed with the content of this edition once again and look forward to seeing it in full production print form. The inclusion of so many Case Law references and scenarios, enthused my interest to want to continue reading. Paul has
made the reading both easy on the eye and in a plain spoken straightforward manner which certainly made me want turn the next page and to continue reading. The essence is whether learning has taken place, the answer quite simply from any student picking up this book is, 'Yes, most definitely."
--Stuart K Fairclough, Metropolitan Police Trainer
"The manuals are an excellent training and reference work. They are pitched at a level which is appropriate for all, from the new student officer to those studying for promotion to higher rank. I would recommend them to every officer wishing to improve or maintain their knowledge of law, police
duties and procedures."
--Paul Murphy, Greater Manchester Police
