Criminal law & procedure

Criminal Justice Writing and Rhetoric is designed to help criminal justice students improve their academic and professional writing skills. The book offers guidance on critical forms of writing in the field of criminal justice, everything from traditional academic essays and research papers to more specialized formats such as police incident reports, legal briefs, and public presentations.

The book addresses the varied writing needs at all stages of a criminal justice student's educational journey and beyond. It includes information on combatting writing anxiety, understanding the mechanics of good writing, and maintaining academic integrity. The book also includes practical instruction on APA citation, the formulation of research questions, drafting documents, and the use of secondary data in research. Activities and discussion topics at the end of each chapter provide opportunities for applied learning and classroom engagement.

Criminal Justice Writing and Rhetoric serves as a comprehensive introduction to professional communication in the criminal justice system and prepares students for real-world writing demands both during and after their college careers. It is ideal for any criminal justice course with a significant writing component, as well as for senior capstone seminars.
