Product came quickly and was in pretty good condition for being "used". Pictures aren't in color and are in black and white but it really doesn't make much difference.

    • Interesting and informative
I purchased this book for an online college course thinking it would be dry and hard to follow like many other textbooks, but I was proved wrong. "Legal Considerations for Fire and Emergency Services" has been hands down the most interesting and beneficial textbook to my education and career. The author of the book shares his invaluable experience and knowledge of both public safety and law in a clear and concise manner. The material is very relatable for those in the fire service and would be a great read for all ranks. One of my favorite things about this book is the many examples or "case studies" that helped me to visualize or apply the concepts being taught. ... show more

    • Info You Need to Know
This is an excellent resource for all staff. The topics are all relevant. Written in an easy to understand format. Will aid in many areas. What I also like is that it gives credence to command decisions when when questioned by subordinates. Things are not what commanders want either, however, the courts have spoken. ... show more
