520 _aBribery and Corruption is written by the world's leading practitioners in the fields of fraud prevention, detection and investigation; they have massive practical experience in commercial and governmental sectors. The book exposes the misconceptions, myths and, indeed, corruption of the word bribery and suggests effective solutions that go well beyond simple compliance. It commits to assertive managerial rather than timorous legal solutions to anti-bribery and related laws. It explains how processes can be tested - using automated fraud detection software - to expose current cases of fraud and corruption or to provide assurance that controls are functioning as intended. Over the last 25 years, Mike Comer, occasionally writing with Tim Stephens, has been responsible for some of the most readable and influential books on fraud. Bribery and Corruption is another tour de force, complete, authoritative and yet a great pleasure to read.
