Study in criminology and police detection methods of the time. From a NA (USA) perspective, Post undertook a study of police detective methods of the early 20th century, comparing USA vs European techniques of the time, and gives lots of examples in the exposé of the good and bad (solved and not) cases by each. A fun book, read it in the perspective of the times.
