Synopsis

With an emphasis on relevance, this book tailors English instruction to the needs of police training and law enforcement. Taking a building block approach, the first five chapters present English grammar and the last two chapters are devoted to the police report writing process. Each chapter includes practice and review exercises that are taken from the field and assignment material that is geared to law enforcement interests. This edition features sample reports, sample forms and “war stories” that help students see how grammar and writing skills are used in their profession. 

About this title

From the Publisher

A well-written police report can often make a critical difference in the outcome of a case or settlement. Unfortunately traditional writing and grammar courses do not address the unique writing needs which are essential in a police report. For these reasons the authors of this text have combined their knowledge of English instruction and police training to develop this useful, reliable and relevant text.
