PRAISE FOR COOKIN' the BOOK$

Cookin' the Books is fabulous! It is a great book that breathes life into business ethics. Raymond Jones, Ph.D., Assistant Professor Coordinator of the Certificate Program in Leadership and Ethics, Joseph M. Katz Graduate School of Business University of Pittsburgh

Cookin' the Book$ is quite a funny and interesting twist on what's going on in corporate accounting today. I highly recommend Cookin'--great book! Raymond M. Cochran, CPA Director of Internal Audit, Columbia University President of Association of College and University Auditors (1999-2000)

Cookin' the Books is entertaining, educational and easily "digestible." The overall quality of the book is excellent. Ken Milani Professor of Accountancy and Faculty Coordinator of Ethics Week University of Notre Dame

As an accounting professor at Penn State with a research interest in ethics, I am always on the lookout for outstanding books. Cookin' the Book$ is very creative and a very good read. Mary Feeney Bonawitz, PhD, CPA Assistant Professor of Professional Accountancy Penn State University-Capital College President, American Society of Women Accountants

Cookin' the Book$ manages to make complicated issues crystal clear and be hilariously funny at the same time--all in a volume small enough to slip into your pocket or pocketbook. A truly winning combination! Marina v.N. Whitman Professor of Business Administration and Public Policy Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy University of Michigan

Cookin' the Book$ stands alone as one of the funniest and straightforward works on business ethics in corporate America today. Peter McGuire Wolf, Ph.D., businessethicsbalance.com

What an ingenious way to communicate ethical principles! This book is full of brilliant metaphors and analogies that cut to the heart of corporate accounting ethics issues. It’s a great story. It’s easy to lose yourself in the dialogue and relationship between the characters and to forget that you’re learning something! Great book! I loved it!" Mark S. Putnam President, Character Training Inc. (business ethics training programs) Author of Ethics for a Modern Workforce and Ethics for Success

Excellent book. Maybe our next generation of corporate leaders can be encouraged by Cookin’ the Book$ to become the women and men of character America needs. Mark Hyatt Board member of the Center for Academic Integrity (Duke University) Board member of the Character Education Partnership
