Book Reviews of Principles of Fraud Examination
Book Review: Excellent overview of Fraud Examination
Summary: 5 Stars
I needed this book for a required Forensic Accounting class at my college. I have to say, it was one of the more interesting textbooks I have ever read. This text incorporates a lot of case studies, which is interesting. The author is also extremely well known in his field, and his knowledge is very evident. I especially liked the way the text was organized, with an overview of the type of fraud, and then details about how the fraud is committed, and then a detail of what type of internal controls would have prevented or detected the fraud. Most chapters also have a list of computer tests you can run to detect fraud, which I imagine could be very helpful for the business owner/accountant. I think this text would be perfect for not only a college setting, but for anyone currently working in business that is worried about fraud in their organization.
Summary of Principles of Fraud Examination
A university edition of the Corporate Fraud Handbook, this book has been created to provide the most authoritative treatment available on Fraud Accounting. Like no other book on fraud, this book explains fraud schemes used by employees, owners, managers, and executives to defraud their customers and illustrates each scheme with real-life case studies submitted to the ACFE by actual fraud examiners who aided in the case resolutions. It shows the reader how to spot the "red flags" of fraud, how to comply with recent regulations including Sarbanes-Oxley, and how to develop and implement effective preventative measures.Accounting Books
