Product Description

Book Description

* The most complete reference available to cover the psychological or 'human need' aspect of interviewing * Offers a guide to 'affective' interviewing rather than the outdated and often illegal coercive tactics of the past

From the Publisher

The writing style and organizational methodology used in The Art of Investigative Interviewing, A human approach to testimonial evidence is nontraditional and captures the reader's interest. The approach used by Mr. Yeschke is to use knowledge bases and disciplines not normally associated with this subject matter. Of particular interest is the psychological or 'human need' to construct. This is the single most important element of an interviewing text, as the urge to reveal information, or not to, is fundamentally based upon an interviewer's ability to correctly interpret human behaviour.

5.0 out of 5 stars Top Notch, Jun 25 2000
This review is from: Art of Investigative Interviewing: A Human Approach to Testimonial Evidence (Paperback)
I have been a police officer for 5 years, and have received alot of training in the police field. In 5 years I have found that there is very minimal training in obtaining confessions from suspects. Obtaining voluntary confessions from suspects is a very important task in today's modern world. I found this book to be very informative and it explains to the reader the many parts to an interview before leading into an interogation. This book also also explains that showing empathy works better at obtaining confessions than the old methods of coersion. I enjoyed the book and am excited to get to apply its teachings in my interviews. I believe that the methods taught in this book are worth while and will work if you are patient and use them properly

1.0 out of 5 stars Fluff, May 1 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Art of Investigative Interviewing: A Human Approach to Testimonial Evidence (Paperback)
Ninety-five percent mundane recycled touchy feely fluff and 5% useful information. Not worth the price even for those who would appreciate the fluff.
