Reviews
" Seldom do books of great scholarship take on the pacing of a thriller or the moral force of a statesman's oratory. Profit Without Honor does both. In ever-lively anecdotes and startling statistics, the authors expose the dark side of our justice system, a place where well-dressed thieves pull off million dollar heists with frightening regularity and almost always get away with it. The authors lay bare for us the environment that gave rise to the Enron and Worldcom scandals. It is a disturbing, fury-igniting story . . . and one every citizen shareholder should read. Profit Without Honor is an outstanding book. " — Clifton Leaf, Executive Editor;Fortune Magazine " A great book!Profit Without Honorcombines immaculate scholarship, penetrating insight, and a witty and engaging style of writing. Readers will find material that will trigger righteous indignation, and insights that will make them nod in agreement and wonder why they hadn't thought of that. The authors provide a vast array of information on white-collar offenses that challenges current concentration on street lawbreaking as the most serious crime problem in the United States. " — Gilbert Geis, Professor Emeritus, Former President,American Society of Criminology " Wow! Profit Without Honor is one of the finest books that I have ever read on the subject of white-collar crime. Each chapter was outstanding; the writing style; the organization of the material, past and present; the research; and the footnotes. Profit Without Honor is outstanding. " — Hugh J.B. Cassidy, Former Detective Commander and the Aide to the Chief of Detectives,NYC Police Department " A vivid documentation of the white-collar crime problem in the U.S. told with panache and insight.

- r***3 (12)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchasePrint and frame were absolutely beautiful and I'm so happy to have it in my possession. It reminds me of a similar print my grandma had when I was growing up. Package was so thoughtfully and extremely well packed. Shipping was a little involved with USPS needing a signature and having an unclear drop off schedule, which was not on the part of the seller. Overall, I would purchase again from this seller.Morning Glory Flowers Blue inside of Picture Frame Spotted Gold Hang only (#364923151307)
