Praise for ESSENTIALS OF SARBANES-OXLEY

"Since its enactment in 2002, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and its
Section 404 internal control requirements have caused many a great
deal of 'pain and suffering!' With its emphasis on what Sanjay
Anand frequently reminds us is the 'real world,' this book should
reduce some of that pain as it provides a practical and very
realistic approach for an effective implementation of
Sarbanes-Oxley internal control processes. The book has references
to the new changes in auditing standards and emphasizes achieving
sustainable compliance-practical and realistic approaches."

--Robert R. Moeller, President, Compliance &
Control Systems, Inc.

"Sanjay Anand has provided what every busy executive needs, a
concise overview of Sarbanes-Oxley Act essentials. His book is a
terrific reference text that I recommend to anyone who needs to
quickly understand the substance of the Act."

--Scott Green, Chief Administration Officer Weil,
Gotshal & Manges LLP

"If you are looking to put together the various pieces-finance,
accounting, audit, legal, IT, ethics-and understand the 'big
picture' of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, there is no other book like
this. With 'Tips & Techniques' and 'In the Real World'
examples, this book brings lively, practical, tangible, and
compressible dimensions to a complex, multifaceted (and often dry)
subject. This is essential reading for those new to the process and
old hands going into their third and fourth years of SOX. It will
also help those in other countries adopting SOX-like internal
controls and regulations."

--Dr. Anthony Tarantino, Governance, Risk, and
Compliance Center of Excellence, IBM, Financial Services Sector,
Silicon Valley and New York City

Written by Sanjay Anand, one of the world's leading corporate

at your fingertips. Essentials of Sarbanes-Oxley equips you
with the knowledge you and all your company members need to
initiate a SOX project, allocate a budget, and help your company
achieve compliance.
