Excerpt from Criminal Investigation: A Practical Handbook for Magistrates, Police Officers and LawyersThis Indian and Colonial edition, while omitting some portions of the original which would be of no use to the practical worker, for example, the slang words of Bohemian gipsies, thus contains much new and interesting matter, the better to adapt the book for India and the Colonies, and also to bring the last German edition of 1904 thoroughly up to date. These new passages, derived from the writings of specialists, the latest criminal intelligence, and the somewhat extensive experience of the adap tors as criminal lawyers, are interwoven with the text.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
