I loved this course, I am currently in the Master's program and this has been one of my most favorite classes. It covers a lot of History of laws pertaining to the criminal justice work place, Title 42 section 1983, and tools and equipment used in law enforcement today. I highly recommend both the seller and the book!
We covered this book 2 chapters a week over an 8 week term and it was very manageable. While the book is kind of a "meh" read as there are little diagrams and less pictures to break up the reading, it is still not an overwhelming amount of information in each chapter. While my course did not utilize any of the books activities so I can't rate those, the book gives enough information to lead you in the right direction for sources and explains things well enough that even if your professor doesn't supplement, it is good.
Bought/Rented for school. Required for my course, but after reading have found several benefits to using this text.Would strongly encourage students to use this, and avoid the buy used, resell maybe, likely keep routine.Renting or digital are more efficient, reasonable and useful.Also, prevents being bagged with tons of college books which seem to out date quickly.
The chapters seem to cram subjects together in a random way.Maybe this is so that the reader has to work to get the information out to make the reading more challenging -- don't know.Luckily, I had a good professor, but I wish the author would either break up the chapters into smaller bits or reorganize.It is, as with all texts, overpriced.Besides that, it is clearly written.
The class I was suppose to take that required this book was cancelled so I ended up returning it before using it. From the time I spent browsing through the book though, it looked like an interesting and easyread. I will be taking this class in the future so I can give an updated review then. 5 stars for now, hopefully in the future too.
I recommend this book for anyone interested in the Criminal Justice System or for anyone going into that field. There is a great deal of necessary information contained within this textbook that would benefit anyone who reads this.
Normally I sell back my used textbooks, but I will be keeping this one. It contains information regarding police agencies, courts, laws, prisons, and jails. Wonderful textbook to own!
This is a great textbook but unfortunately it was not the book is need for this particular class. A great addition to any law library. Good to have for reference purposes.
