Timely and engaging, the new edition of this popular book reflects the significant new developments in the study of white-collar crime, including the Enron, WorldCom, Global Crossing, Qwest Communications, Adelphia, Rite-Aid, ImClone, and Arthur Andersen scandals. It covers this very broad subject by describing the extent of the injuries caused by this type of crime: hazardous workplaces, medical malfeasance, unsafe products, and social costs. Victimology is a critical element of this book: it helps give the problem personal relevance. The nature and extent of these acts are fully documented using academic and popular sources. An ongoing theme of this book is that white-collar crime spares no one. Topics include: crimes against consumers, unsafe products, environmental crime, institutional corruption (mass media and religion), securities fraud, corporate fraud, fiduciary fraud (banking, insurance, and pension fund crime), government crime, corruption of public officials, medical crime, and computer crime. Appropriate for all criminal justice/law enforcement-related personnel who deal with white-collar/corporate crime issues, as well as for all members of police departments.
