D. W. Reynold's " The Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing But....A Police Officer's Guide to Testifying in Court" takes it's readers into the world of courtroom testimony from a police officer's perspective. It presents readers with actual courtroom testimony and reveals many tactics and tricks used by defense attorney's in their efforts to impeach police officer's testimony,and other witnesses as well, all in an entertaining, thought provoking and often hilarious way. The author achieves his goal through his four E's approach; to "Enlighten, Expose, Educate and Equip". At 78 pages in length, the author packs "a college course" in one, easy to read book.

This is by far the best advice I have ever read for street cops and federal agents who have to testify in court. Very good, practical advice that you can really put to use. The author writes from the street cop's point of view. I gained a lot of confidence from reading it, and I loaned it to my co-workers. I have looked at other books on this topic but none of them is nearly as good.
