Book excerpt: Due to the ever-growing number of Spanish-speaking people in cities and rural areas across America, many of our institutions have had to address the issue of bilingualism. From schools to hospitals, the IRS to the DMV, communication with the population for whom Spanish is the primary language is vital. Probably in no single public arena is the need felt more than in law enforcement. Police officers, traffic patrollers, detectives, corrections officers, parole officers, court officers, and security officers who interact with Spanish-speaking people need a specialized, easy-to-use guide to help them communicate and sometimes translate quickly and effectively in difficult situations. The Pocket Idiot's Guide(tm) to Spanish for Law Enforcement Professionals fills this need. Using the unique, time-proven format of the pocket guide, this book is a comprehensive phrase book designed for use in the street, the station, or anywhere that a law enforcement situation takes place.
