“This fascinating book reads like a fast—paced novel that details the motivations and consequences of white—collar crime.”―Arthur Levitt, former chairman of the US Securities and Exchange Commission
From financial fraud to Ponzi schemes, the failings of corporate titans are regular fixtures in the news. In Why They Do It, Harvard Business School professor Eugene Soltes draws from extensive personal interaction and correspondence with nearly fifty former executives, as well as the latest research in psychology, criminology, and economics, to investigate how once—celebrated executives become white—collar criminals.
