CHOICE Review

According to Bologna and Shaw, the fastest growing professional association is the Certified Fraud Examiners, and the fastest growing segment of public accounting is forensic accounting. This growth is in response to increased corporate crime, complexity of corporate criminal law, and possible criminal and civil prosecution of corporate managers. This book may be especially useful to professional corporate security investigators, risk managers, and internal auditors because it provides extensive lists such as (1) conditions that are conducive to fraud; (2) "red flags" that may indicate fraud; and (3) means to avoid fraud. Other important coverage includes methods to help identify, and possible approaches for handling, corporate criminal behavior. The authors cover differences in definitions (e.g., theft, stealing, larceny, and fraud), internal investigation strategies, and processes for documenting criminal behavior. One chapter succinctly summarizes the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the securities statutes, bribery and kickback laws, conspiracy laws, the Federal Anti-Racketeering Law (RICO), money laundering, and forfeiture statutes. The terse presentation limits interest primarily to libraries serving executive management and criminal justice programs. Graduate; professional. H. Mayo The College of New Jersey
