Customer Reviews

Satisfied

This book came in the mail brand new, just like it was supposed to be. It got to my house the day before classes started so it had really fast shipping. It was also about $30 less than the price at the college bookstore. Definitely a good buy.

Great purchase!

I was very happy with the purchase. It was exactly as described and I received it quickly. Thank you.

The Book Review

Too much informatoin crammed into one resource. Their are some opinions in here disguished as facts. Becareful. I wouldn't buy it, but I needed it for class. Has some decent information in it.

Police Promotional Material

I had to study this book for an upper management promotion test with a major police department. Although some of the material wasn't relevant to my department, it did have a lot of information that was useful. The book is an easy read for the most part and the chapter reviews were very useful. I would recommend a study guide. By the way...I passed the test.
