Customer Rating: Summary: Useful techniques Comment: Having had Mr. Schafer as an instructor and reading the book has helped me in my day-to-day work. These are good building blocks/tools to add to your tool box that are usable with your personality skills. I highly recommend this book to new employees to use as a framework and for the experienced employees to add to their tool box. Customer Rating: Summary: Advanced.....right.... Comment: As a graduate of the basic and advanced Reid interrogation seminars, and having conducted a few interrogations of my own, I picked this book up with the expectation of "advanced" techniques. Especially since the guy who wrote it was with the bureau. But instead the book has the standard techniques. Thier is absolutely NOTHING new or advanced about this book. This book provides training about as good as the basic patrolman gets at the academy. However, this is just my opinion, pick up the book and see what you think, but as for me I wish I had saved my money. Thanks for your time. Customer Rating: Summary: Very helpful information Comment: Even though I am not in the field of law enforcement, this book provided me with information that will help me out in everday life such as telling me how to determine when someone is not being truthful. Thanks! Customer Rating: Summary: Truly Advanced INterviewing Comment: I was only able to obtain the book directly through the pulisher www.ccthomas.com, but its terrific. In two hours I learned more than in 27 years of military intelligence training. This book is terrific with no nonsense, it addresses issues clearly and succinctly. These guys know what they are talking about. JD Customer Rating: Summary: Outstanding Work Comment: This is one outstanding book filled with new ideas for any interviewer in any number of professions. The contents cover every possible need. After beginning in law enforcement 22 years ago, I can say I wish I would have had the book from day one.
