I definitely recommend "Exposure". Even though or perhaps because the book is actually a prolapsed story, it reads like an exciting business thriller. The perfect holiday reading. And in fact the book is about real white-collar crime at the highest level, carried out in the boardrooms of Olympus in Japan. In the book, the former CEO of famous Olympus tells how he discovered and revealed one of the biggest accounting scandals in the world. Doing this he took his family and himself it in danger. I find the book very interesting and recommend it therefore to anyone reading white-collar-crime thrillers, who is interested in Japan and Asia and/or who is interested in finance and accounting scandals. I agree to the "Economist " saying the book should be compulsory for all managers and MBA students. Michael Woodford proves with his behavior in this case true leadership qualities and responsibility. In times of NSA and Libor scandals and revelations of Edward Snowden and Wikileaks , etc. the book is highly topical. It is exciting and fully entertaining, showing the life of whistleblowers - true heroes for me.
