Principles of Fraud Examination or Global Problems

Principles of Fraud Examination

Author: Joseph T Wells

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.

Global Problems: The Search for Equity, Peace, and Sustainability

Author: Scott Sernau

This text uses sociological perspectives to examine the various dimensions of globalization, and the social problems of inequality, war and violence, and environmental sustainability that are occurring on a global scale.  Clear writing and vivid examples help students to better understand their role as global citizens.

The book is divided into three parts:

Part I focuses on  the challenges of global inequalities: in life chances, wages and work, gender and education. 

Part II focuses on conflict and violence at all levels: from crime to politics, terrorism to war.  

Part III focuses on the issue of sustainability and the problems of urbanization, crowding and environmental destruction.
