Sommario/riassunto: | "The book will review and discuss (with Access and Excel examples) the methods and techniques that investigators can use to uncover anomalies in corporate and public sector data.

Despite the quantitative and computing bias, the book will still be interesting to read with interesting vignettes and illustrations.
