SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"This book provides clear and comprehensive coverage of the policing system and police powers. Flow charts and diagrams are included to explain key areas as clearly as possible. It addresses the core elements of policing and police powers that will be useful for both practical and academic purposes." "This second edition has been extensively revised and updated to take account of new legislation, case law and other developments in the area including new codes of practice. It also includes coverage of the increasing role of civilians given police powers as part of the 'extended police family'." "This book will be invaluable to students of constitutional law, criminal justice and civil liberties as well as practitioners needing a quick reference tool."--Jacket.
