You'll understand the most common employee crimes - from theft to collusion to insurance fraud - including how to discourage these abuses and avoid the financial losses associated with them.

Excellent and Informative research book,
This review is from: Fraud: Bringing Light to the Dark Side of Business (Hardcover)
Very well written and highly informative book on the white collar crime issue of Fraud. Dr. Albrecht has outdone himself with this extremely useful and easily understood literary work. As a fellow researcher in the white collar crime realm, I feel that this book will be an excellent reference and referal for me when I am conducting my empirical research. I feel that his in depth but easily understandable definitions of the various kinds of fraud are a useful tool for the reader who is essentially uniformed about the global growing concern of fraud. I strongly believe that his sections on the pressures involving white collar crime are quite true and accurate. This book should also be used as a tool for professional law enforcement, accountants, and attorneys to expand their knowledge of the many faces of fraud.

The BEST book about fraud ever written!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Fraud: Bringing Light to the Dark Side of Business (Hardcover)
This the the most descriptive book about fraud ever written...hands down! Dr. Albrecht brings out everything a forensic accountant should know. If you have ever wanted to get an idea about how a forensic accountant thinks, then this is the book for you!

Fraud: Bringing Light to the Dark Side of Business,
By
This review is from: Fraud: Bringing Light to the Dark Side of Business (Hardcover)
This introductory text rather thoroughly covers the basics of fraud symptoms, control factors, detection methods, investigations, and prevention. It's quite easy to read, with short, interesting case studies. By reading this book, I not only learned a lot, but also had a clearer appreciation for the entire scope of the subject(s), thereby permitting me to discern which areas I should consider for additional education and training. The authors did a splendid job of writing "to instruct the reader" as opposed to simply presenting their acquired knowledge of the subject.
