Title: Disappointing
Product review: I needed to know more about Sarbanes-Oxley for work and ordered this book. While I was waiting for it to arrive, I went onto the Internet and downloaded some information, including the text of the legislation itself.I read through the legislation. I'm not an attorney, and I wasn't motivated to cross reference the other laws/acts mentioned. In other words I just read the legislation as is, with no legal background.When this book arrived, I expected it would provide information and/or interpretations that I was not able to get directly from reading the legislation and other free materials.In truth, I found there was very little, if anything that I hadn't gathered directly from my other sources. If you are trying to learn what Sarbanes-Oxley is about and choose not to use the available information, this book does describe the basics.I would not recommend it, because it does not significant add to, or simplify the information readily available for free.
