The Reality Reading Series: provides the reader with provocative, true cases that coincide with the most popular Criminal Justice courses offered at colleges, universities, and police academies throughout the United States.  Because of the unique police-style manner in which the text has been written, it is recommended that this textbook be utilized in a supplemental capacity for a variety of academic and academy training classes to include: Introduction to Criminology, Introduction to Criminal Justice, Introduction to Policing/Law Enforcement Systems, Criminal Law, Constitutional Law, Criminal Investigations, or as a stand-alone class focusing on special topics pertaining to case studies.              “The Concept is brilliant.  The Cases will be of significant interest to my students.  I found the crime statistical data to be very valuable and I would make the book required reading.  The questions promote deeper thoughts and deduction on the student's part, and the real crimes, especially noteworthy cases, bring reality into the classroom.” David Kotajarvi, Lakeshore Technical College, WI
