This practical handbook follows the successful flexicover format of Blackstone's Police Operational Handbook and is designed to complement that publication by offering guidance on good practice in core policing areas.
Aimed at junior patrol officers, student officers and trainee detectives, it draws together practical advice across a wide range of police duties, along with extracts and explanantions of official policy and guidance from ACPO, the National Policing Improvement Agency and the National Centre for Policing excellence.
The Handbook provides guidance on a structured approach to police work based on established national principles and practices and is divided into four parts: Evidence Management, Knowledge-based Policing, Neighbourhood Policing, and Protective Services Policing.
Information is accompanied with features such as boxed examples, checklists, diagrams, practical tips and flow-charts, to aid the reader's grasp of the issues discussed, and is an essential resource for all patrol officers.
