Intelligence-led Policing clearly explains the distinction between information and intelligence, and discusses how to gather, analyse and utilise intelligence to inform decision making in practice. It relates all areas of intelligence within the investigative process and contextualises its use in line with the National Intelligence Model (NIM) as part of routine working practice. It develops a knowledge base by identifying six tiers of policing intelligence architecture, exploring the concept of intelligence as it applies to strategic, tactical and practice levels of operational policing. A great mix of theory and practice to help students explore how information can become useful intelligence including the process through which it goes and the importance of intervention points.The Professional Policing Curriculum in Practice is a new series of books that match the requirements of the new pre-join policing qualifications. The texts reflect modern policing, are up-to-date and relevant, and grounded in practice. They reflect the challenges faced by new students, linking theory to real-life operational practice, while addressing critical thinking and other academic skills needed for degree-level study.

The latest lethal development in a secret war between two interplanetary superpowers, Project Snipe is an elite task-force chosen to test an experimental weapon designed to give the PPB Navy a decisive advantage against their fierce rivals, the Sovereign's intimidating Black Fleet. Miranda Jowett, leader of Project Snipe and captain of the infamous pirate hunter, "Savatara," has her own ideas about testing the weapon, and now her ship - known to pirates as the "Savage Terror" - has gone rogue. Fixated on hunting and destroying as many Black Fleet craft as she can, Jowett's obsession is making her powerful enemies on both sides of the conflict. Caught in the firing line is Glen Rothgill, after joining the military in peacetime only to discover that peacetime is a lie, he finds himself pulled into the grim and brutal race to stop the Savatara's deadly campaign.
Using the fun, singsong rhythms of meter and rhyme, Jump Ship Jonah retells the biblical account of this colorful character and his struggle with obedience. From ship to whale to Ninevah, the story is accompanied with beautiful yet childlike paintings in vibrant watercolor to help bring the story alive in the imaginations of children. The illustrations in Jump Ship Jonah were created to help children identify with Jonah on his exciting adventure. His youthful features, a whimsical whale, and lively landscapes combine to make a fun setting for the story. There are lessons to be learned from Jump Ship Jonah about attitudes of selfishness and obedience. The book is designed to be read to a child, with an adult adding lighthearted commentary as desired. Jump Ship Jonah is the first in a series of Bible-based “rhyme time” picture books developed to whet the appetities of children ages 3-7 to read the biblical accounts for themselves when they reach the appropriate level. The witty story telling of this timeless tale will surely be revisited multiple times by young and old alike.
Financial Investigation and Financial Intelligence

This book critically analyses the conceptual understanding of financial investigation and financial intelligence among UK law enforcement authorities and their commentators. The work provides a critical review of financial investigation, including international standards, and how it is perceived and applied by law enforcement agencies. It adopts the position that financial investigation is an evidence-gathering process and not simply related to asset recovery. Here, the concept of “following the money” is superseded by the wider approach of “following the financial footprint” by generalist and specialist investigators and analysts. The book focuses on identifying the financial footprint as a skill set for routine investigation application inclusive of the emerging threat posed by the digital environment, including cryptocurrencies. It assesses the terminology, typologies and structures associated with the subject area at the national and international levels. It also examines the historical trajectory of financial investigation to understand current perceptions of it within law enforcement, among government ministers and policy makers. The book will be of interest to students, academics and policy makers internationally working in the areas of criminal law, criminology and finance.
