I read this book for my online forensic accounting class. The information was really interesting and the examples were easy to follow and relevant. The index was easy to use and the organization made sense. I could have done without the logic puzzles at the beginning of each chapter (there is no answer key), and the "Crazy Eddie" commentary got a little old. But overall I would recommend this book to anyone who is taking a fraud accounting class.

Very similar to J. Well's Principles of Fraud Examination... which was assigned for another class.
