Mystery buffs and true crime fans can cheer the publication of this book about the realities of police work--and how far the accounts in novels and on TV stray from the real thing. This description may be from another edition of this product.
I happened to find this book on a little bookstore on Catalina Island in California of all places...It does a good job of not being too basic for someone who has studied criminal justice, and not to inaccesable or pretentious for the casual reader. Lots of case histories from the San Francisco Bay area.Some of the content dives into rather basic crime factoids, but for the most part a great book that may get you interested in studying criminal justice full time.
