Big News! A New Installment in the Project

As some of you may know, we have long planned a smaller, more mass market version of the book.

We have just finished looking over the galley proofs of that book, and it goes to press next week.

The new book, Building a Career in Compliance and Ethics: Find your place in the business world's hottest new field, will sell for only $29.95 and will be published next month, February 2007.

It will of course be available through SCCE, but we are not sure yet where else you may be able to get a copy. We will keep you updated.

Below, we have included the Table of Contents of this new book, and next week, we should have up the front and back covers of the book, so be sure to check back then.
