Book Reviews of Criminal Interrogation and Confessions

Book Review: An Excellent book for all interested in interviewing and interrogation
Summary: 5 Stars

I have to disagree with D. Rogers that there is "no scientific approach." Just one example would be the utilization of what is called by Dr. Robert Cialdini, (Influence; Science and Practice) the Commitment and Consistency Principal. The Reid Technique encourages interrogators to never let the suspect say, "I didn't do it." The scientific studies concerning why the suspect would be more solid in his denial are clearly supported in Cialdini's new book, "Yes," and also "Freedman, J.L;, and Fraser, S.C. (1966). Compliance without pressure: The foot-in-the-door technique. Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 4:195-203.
This is just one instance of a plethura of examples I could site concerning the science involved in the Reid Technique.
As for "overtly simple in style," I find nothing assaulting to my intelligence by a well written, clearly explained book. After all, the purpose of instructional books is to teach others. I give this book an A+.
