This book on the legal and regulatory framework for UK businesses came to be written as a compilation in a single volume of several legal topics that businesses need to be aware of. "Legal and Regulatory Framework: For Business in the UK" brings together in a single place the legal requirements for business and is intended to serve as an introduction to the subject. It is hoped that business people will find it flavourful and readable.

"A Comparative Analysis of Corporate Fraud: Book Four" examines corporate fraud in the United Kingdom compared with that of two civil law neighbouring countries, France and Germany, as well as the United States. The objective of the study is to discover how fraud occurs, how the two different legal systems treat fraud, contributing factors, and if recommendations were made to authorities in an attempt to combat this illegal activity.

The UK can learn much from the French legal system and the way France prosecutes corporations. Germany's Criminal Code is equally comprehensive in its prescriptive definitions of fraud, especially corporate fraud. Although the UK is striving for a general law against fraud, the UK Fraud Offence Bill is very inadequate, lacking detailed solutions. The UK has become entrenched in upholding legal privilege, bowing to intense lobbying by the legal profession. And the use of electronic evidence, vital in prosecuting modern corporate fraud, remains overlooked.

The attitude toward corporate fraud in the UK remains laissez-faire. By analysing corporate fraud in the US, France, and Germany, author Sally Ramage highlights examples that the UK can take from these countries that combat corporate fraud without derogation of established international human rights.

The commercial airline Flight MH 370 has not been recovered despite billions of dollars spent looking for this passenger aircraft that had been due to arrive at Beijing airport many years ago. There were hundreds of passengers on this flight.There have been many aircraft crashes, yet manufacturer denies responsibility. This book poses many possible reasons for this Flight MH370 being still missing.

This book on the criminal procedure and criminal investigation of fraud has taken two years to come to fruition. It is a comprehensive law book on the topic of criminal fraud and includes caselaw, legislation, professional practice procedures, best practices, and many scenarios. It is the most comprehensive fraud law book on sale.

This book contains the latest in English criminal law. It is written in the style of nine essays on current issues in English criminal law.

This "FRAUD LAW BOOK FIVE" is a compilation of articles illustrating the diverse areas in which serious fraud occurs, areas such as accountancy frauds, music piracy, internet fraud and identity fraud. In music piracy, for example, the issue is that of the protection of property rights yet still ensuring the free circulation of goods bought in good faith. It remains to be seen whether the UK Fraud Act 2006, passed in November 2006, will deliver and combat fraud.

The right to privacy, or the right to private life, is at the heart of individual freedom and the right to be free from arbitrary government interference. The United Kingdom, although part of the European Union, has privacy issues unlike EU member states of Germany and France, for example, and yet the UK Press has much more freedom compared to the ordinary citizen.

This book (published in 2007) follows on from the author's 2004 book titled "Civil Liberties in England and Wales." Privacy is a contemporary topic of law and some might even say, the hottest civil liberties topic. The UK government has before Parliament "The Serious Crimes Bill 2007," one part of which will attempt to establish a super police database of all UK citizens' information and another part of which will attempt to make the interrogation of business files on personnel a legal compulsion. The UK government also has "The Interception Of Communication (As Evidence) Bill 2007" before parliament. It is therefore fitting that the subject of privacy is aired.

This book was written to give a brief but good overview of the regulations for doing business in the United Kingdom. If a businessman knows what regulations are in force in a country, he should not be caught unawares by income tax investigations, demand for Value Added Taxes which he did not expect, and so on. This book is NOT a business manual. It is NOT a law textbook for students grappling with examinations on the subject, although it adequately fits that description; rather, it is for general public readership: it has been written in a readable style, by passing pomp and jargon. In this valuable contribution to an understanding of U.K. business regulations, the author urges all business people to know their rights, have their affairs in order and learn the rules of engagement as they can be used to their advantage.

Sally Ramage is an established writer of legal books, articles and academic papers on the subject of serious financial fraud. This is Book 3 in her Fraud Law Series, the first being "SERIOUS FRAUD AND CURRENT ISSUES," the second being "FRAUD AND THE SERIOUS FRAUD OFFICE."

This third book concentrates on serious corporate fraud in the United Kingdom. Ms Ramage thinks that it is imperative that, to detect corporate fraud, one must have a good understanding of the company law of the country in which the fraud takes place. So her Book 3 "Fraud Law" will teach you UK COMPANY LAW in a simple, easy to understand way. It then illustrates the breaches of the law with Serious Fraud Office prosecutions. The cases are a startling reminder that this very serious subject is more disturbing as it reveals that it is the professionals, solicitors, accountants and senior executives, who perpetrate such clever, cunning and unscrupulous deeds.

The author would appreciate feedback and if you find this book useful and if you would like her to write similar volumes for other countries, please put forward your suggestions to her.

It is not easy to prevent others from using your ideas or information for gain unless you use the sophisticated and esoteric legal techniques of intellectual property law.Copyright, which is especially important, is a form of protection afforded to many different types of work. Copyright protection for literary work is well known, and this regime also applies to musical and artistic works, broadcasts, sound and video recordings and typographical arrangements."An Introduction to Intellectual Property," an introduction to topics in intellectual property law by the unusual method of using moots, mock trials, questions and answers and essays, is not a textbook. It serves to interest the inquisitive without going into the deep law of IP. It will certainly encourage the reader to read an IP textbook and help students when faced with a decision to choose the subject for study.

This is Book Two ("Fraud and the Serious Fraud Office") in the series 'Fraud Law', following Book One ("Serious Fraud and Current Issues"), and deals with legal issues such as the right to silence of a suspect. The law of Germany, France and New York and Illinois is discussed and compared with English law to give a good perspective of fraud in the developed world.

The very fact that the series consists of five volumes speaks for itself that fraud is a huge problem and seems to have become accepted as part of our culture, with roots of fraudulent behaviour running deep into the fabric of finance and accountancy. There is nothing new under the sun, as the saying goes, and fraud is as common today as in centuries past, man's ingenuity and cunning only growing sharper.

Fraud is big business and it rots the fabric of finance and accountancy, as it is exercised by all day trading of bonds, junk bonds, loans. Twenty-five years ago, fraud was said to be rapidly expanding and manifests itself by shady deals, fraudulently converted cash. Fraudsters who are active, especially electronic fraud, do in fact treat the use of fraud as serious "business" and the execution of frauds as "work," much as other criminals treat their activities as their "job"! Identity theft poses a frightening threat of being taken in by crooks. If twenty-five years ago it was estimated that the amount of fraudulent cash around the world at any one time more than equalled the Gross National Products of several third-world countries, it would not be believed--a damning indictment indeed.

In this fascinating and comprehensive study on Fraud the author takes advantage of the fact that people seem thrilled to hear about frauds, like murders. She has prepared works that will use the reader's' attention to discuss law enforcement and the consequences of breaking the law by committing frauds.
