the needs of the private investigator in the security field. Continuing in the
tradition of its previous editions, this book covers essential topics which are

investigation. Investigative skills such as surveillance techniques,
interviewing and interrogation, evidence, and confessions and written statements
are all discussed, and supplemented with updated case studies and examples from
the authors own experiences.

Law Enforcement, it provides clear,
concise, and up-to-date statements of the rules of law applicable to situations
commonly encountered by police officers in the field. Rules are stated from the
point of view of an officer on duty. Officers who familiarize themselves with
the layout and contents of the Field Guide should have no difficulty
understanding the rules and applying them to "street" situations. The Field
Guide has been designed for easy reference.
