This review is from: Criminal Intelligence Analysis (Hardcover)

Despite its relative age, the quality of this book means that much of its content still holds good. The format of individual authorities writing chapters on their own specialism nicely combines the best of expertise with variety. Subjects range from analytical techniques (developing inferences,tape recorded conversations, telephone records, and particularly unique chapters on Network Analysis), to practical workplace issues like data collection and analysis, report writing, and the Intelligence Function in general. Each of the authors is well recognised and respected within the field, and the content of the book is still not repeated elsewhere in quite the same way. A good introduction to many aspects of the field and the profession, with other good references and links built-in.
