General Police Duties 2006

Designed to mirror the best-selling "Blackstone's Police Manuals", this series is written by experienced and highly successful question writers. Each Q and A book contains 100s of multiple-choice questions designed to reinforce knowledge and understanding of all four Police Manuals, and to highlight any gaps or weaknesses in that knowledge. Following subjects in the same sequence as the Manuals and drawing upon the relevant text, the "Blackstone's Police Q and As" are essential revision material for all police officers sitting the OSPRE[registered] Part 1 promotion examinations. The 2006 editions of this popular series contain substantial updates, reflecting changes to the 2006 versions of the "Blackstone's Police Manuals", and also now contain handy paragraph references to the relevant Manual and a question checklist to mark the answers.
