Reviews

'The authors have done an excellent job of organizing this volume. They have covered a huge array or trust related topics within this volume. Given the current immense attention, concern and perhaps even fear of upcoming political elections and wall street abuses, the attention to politicians and business leaders who have failed us in the past will be viewed as highly relevant to most people's interest. The figures and related statistics provide powerful tools to establish the importance of building trust in those leadership positions.' - Linda K. Stroh, Graduate School of Business, Loyola University Chicago, USA
