INVESTIGATION. Its purpose is to enable the student to test his/her knowledge of important points, concepts, terms, and rules and commit these to memory. It contains more than 1,600 multiple-choice questions and answers, and each question is constructed so that the correct answer, when added to it, will form a statement that can be read and reread. The questions test the student on every aspect of criminal investigation: the preservation and recording of the crime scene, the collection and analysis of evidence, the interviewing and interrogation of witnesses, the identification of suspects, rules of evidence, and the presentation of testimony in court. Special emphasis is placed on the investigation of major crimes. There are 44 chapters in the “Review Guide” corresponding to the 44 chapters in the textbook. An answer key is included at the end of each chapter. This guide is not only an excellent companion volume to the best-selling textbook, but it will also be useful to students who are reviewing the important elements of this discipline in other criminal justice texts.
