Customer Reviews

Good for basics.

This book has been criticized by some for being too basic, however, it is perfect for students who have the need for a brush-up on their English skills, or, people who are ESL students. The last two chapters go into detail about how to write reports, and, depending on the skill level of the students, the first few chapters can be used as a quick review.

Painless Police Report Writing; an English guide for Criminal Justice Professionals

I ordered this book for my son, who is currently a Police Officer. He wanted a reference book that had grammar and punctuation references for accurate police report writing. He ordered a different book that was recommended and written by a Field Training Officer. He found that the book he ordered wasn't anywhere near as helpful and informative as the one that I ordered for him. He couldn't thank me enough for giving him this book.
