Questions about criminal procedure invariably wind up in the domain of constitutional law. Thus this study guide frequently discusses Supreme Court rulings that attempt to walk the fine line between permitting investigation and prosecution activity and protecting individual liberties. Each chapter begins with an overview and closes with a chapter summary, and provides sidebars and FAQ sections throughout. Cook (law, U. of Georgia) also provides useful connections boxes that show the relation of the subject discussed to information in other chapters. A four page table of cases closes out the book.
