Review: I am a police officer in northern Ohio. I was always fustrated doing interviews, I knew I had the right guy, but just didn't know how to get them to tell me they did it. Till I read this book. This book helped me ten-fold with my interviews. This book will not make you an expert interviewer over night. Only time and experience doing interviews will do that. But this book steered me in the right direction. After reading this book my interview techique got alot better and I started getting alot more confessions. The author tells it in plain english and it's easy to understand. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to be a better interviewer.

Summary: We Get Confessions
Review: Joseph has been there and done that. The book is more useful than most of the material you get in training because it comes from an officer who has learned through trail and error what works. As a guy who spent 29 years in law enforcement interviewing people, I highly recommend this book.

Summary: Good But Not Great
Review: This book by retired Lieut. Albert Joseph Jr. should be mandatory reading for all new police officers. The book provides many useful tips and strategies for "getting that confession". Joseph goes even further and makes the interrogation strategies come to life with his many on the job examples. The book is a quick read, and is thoroughly enjoyable. As a police officer, I have been able to successfully use many of Joseph's strategies in my investigations, and I highly recommend it to fellow officers. Having read several other manuals on the same subject, I have yet to find one that is as practicle and enjoyable.

Review: This is an informative, interesting book. However, the author misuses capitals to the point of being a bit annoying.
