Profit without Honor: White Collar Crime and the Looting of America (2nd Edition) Books Description
Review

“A valuable book on an area. of crime in America that has never been given sufficient attention. Rosoff, Pontell & Tillman demonstrate in this thoroughly researched and well-written book that crime in the suites is just as detrimental to the health of this nation, and sometimes more so, than crime in the streets. I highly recommend Profit Without Honor.” — Vincent Bugliosi, author of the book, Helter Skelter “A great book. Profit Without Honor combines 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 law-breaking as the most serious crime problem in the United States.” — Gilbert Geis Professor, Emeritus, Former President, American Society of Criminology “A vivid documentation of the white-collar crime problem in the U.S. told with panache and insight.” — John Braithwaite, Professor, The Australian National University Wow? That is probably the wrong word to begin a critique of a book … 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 material, past and present; the research; the footnotes. Profit Without Honor is outstanding.” — Hugh J.B. Cassidy, Former Detective Commander and Aide to the Chief of Detectives, NYC Police Department

An Informative, Introductory Book
A great book!
Wow!

I utilize Profit Without Honor as one of the required textbooks in an college course I teach at Herkimer County Community College entitled CJ 122: Intoduction to Economic Crime Investigation.I find the book is quite comprehensive, extensively researched and very well written. There is just enough theoretical foundations along with a true plethora of historical and recent examples to educate and inform. My students have received the book very well, commenting that while it is far reaching it is also a fairly easy “read” that isn’t to confusing or overwhelming. It’s my opinion that Profit Without Honor is an excellent introductory text to aquaint the casual reader or the student with the far reaching, comprehensive nature of economic crime, white collar crime and fraud present today.I look forward to a third edition when recent incidents such as Enron, Arthur Anderson, WorldCom etc. would hopefully be addressed.As a side note, the fraud realted quotes from motion pictures that serve as chapter headings are hilarious! (i.e. Teacher: What is the capital of Nebraska? First Student: Lincoln. Teacher: Right. Who freeded the slaves? Second Student: Lincoln Teacher: Right. Charles Keating cooked the books at what S&L? Third Student: Lincoln?)
