    de 丹‧戴維斯（Dan Davies） ...
    Traducido por 陳榮彬 ...
    Series series FOCUS
    《黑天鵝效應》作者塔雷伯、《全球化矛盾》作者羅德里克、《影響力的終結》作者布萊德佛‧德隆等人，口碑強推！　　假鈔、假金礦，甚至假國家。藏在行李箱裡的幼童、五鬼搬運的沙拉油……，儘管詐取錢財的騙徒往往使用各種複雜的障眼法，但犯罪模式大多建立在很簡單的基礎上。　　現代經濟能夠蓬勃發展是建立在分工之上，而隨著商業體系越來越龐雜，現代社會也越來越傾向於「信任的分工」。然而儘管工作層層分化出去的過程中，催生了相應的控管制度，但由於我們不可能查核所有未親自經手的作業，因此制度中仍有許多可以「上下其手」之處。本書蒐羅了從古至今豐富的詐騙實例，帶大家了解商業騙局的幾大特色，同時解釋它們為何、以及會在什麼地方「露出馬腳」，乃至失控崩盤。　　你可以把本書當作一本「刺激的犯罪實錄」，享受當中令人驚詫、搖頭、甚至噴飯的詐騙情節，但若是看門道，它毋寧是一部「角度另類的商業史」。作者分章探討各詐騙案根柢的架構與性質 ...
