"Blackstone's Police Manual on Evidence and Procedure" is the leading text on police law, and the only official reference work for police officers preparing for promotion examinations and for probationary officers. It covers all aspects of evidence law and procedure from a police officer's perspective. The 2005 edition has been extensively revised to incorporate all legislative developments such as the Criminal Justice Act 2003, the Sexual Offences Act 2003, and the Anti-Social Behaviour Act 2003, and a number of case decisions and changes in policy. "Blackstone's Police Manuals" have become the best-selling police reference text in the UK. In addition to being the only official study guide for the police promotion examination in England and Wales, and the recognised text for police probationers, the Manuals have quickly established themselves as the definitive source for all who are involved in police law and procedure.
Endorsed by Central Police Training and Development Authority, the Manuals have been written in consultation with polices force in England and Wales, incorporating views from Detective schools, Driver Training Centres, and operational officer and police managers countrywide. This new edition focuses on Evidence and Procedure, and covers key topics including: summonses and warrants; bail; court procedure and witnesses; youth justice and youth crime and disorder; evidence, incorporating exclusion of admissible evidence, and the disclosure of evidence; interviews; and custody officers' duties. It has also been revised and updated, and includes new questions on important areas of the law.
