"I have been fortunate enough to learn from Dave's work over the
last fifteen years, and this publication is no exception. Using his
twenty-plus years of experience, Dave walks through every aspect of
detecting fraud with a computer from the genesis of the act to the
mining of data for its traces and its ultimate detection. A
complete text that first explains how one prevents and detects
fraud regardless of technology and then shows how by automating
such procedures, the examiners' powers become superhuman."

"Computer-Aided Fraud Prevention and Detection: A Step-by-Step
Guide helps management and auditors answer T. S. Eliot's timeless
question, 'Where is the knowledge lost in information?' Data
analysis provides a means to mine the knowledge hidden in our
information. Dave Coderre has long been a leader in educating
auditors and others about Computer Assisted Audit Techniques. The
book combines practical approaches with unique data analysis case
examples that compel the readers to try the techniques
themselves."
