The first edition was completed in June 2007, just before banking crimes plunged the world into a financial disaster that is still working its way through poorer countries. The result is that

in finance. Academic Press is an imprint of Elsevier. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
