i bought this book used. Amazon described book to be in "good condition". It was a very accurate. The outside book had some basic wear and tear but nothing you would not expect from a used book and the inside of book was in very good condition. There were only a couple of chapters that were highlighted or underlined but nothing that makes it difficult to read. I bought at a huge discount and it was money well spent.

4.0 out of 5 stars So, you want to be a Crime Scene Investigator.

Although this book is written for the law enforcement community as a text book, it's not the dry content that you normally expect to find. I think this book will cross over to the general public that enjoys crime solving interests. I don't know if because we watch CSI, NCIS, and the host of other great crime scene investigator TV programs or not. But this book will hold your interest and can be used as a great resource of an aspiring writer punching out that great crime novel on the keyboard.

Great overall book for those new to investigation. Most subjects discussed are at an overview versus fine detail. I found that to be a slight drawback as I was looking for a more in-depth resource. Still, it's a great source of information and for the price you won't be disappointed.
