Product Information
Knockoff exposes the truth behind the fakes and uncovers the shocking consequences of dealing in counterfeit goods. Traveling across the globe, Tim Phillips shows that counterfeiting isn't a victimless crime; it is an illegal global industry undermining the world's economies. Based on interviews with victims, investigators, and the people who sell counterfeits, Knockoff reveals the link between what we see as "innocent" fakes and organized crime. Phillips describes in detail how the counterfeiters' criminal network costs jobs, cripples developing countries, breeds corruption and violence, and kills thousands of people every year. He shows that by turning a blind eye to the problem, we become accomplices to theft, extortion, and murder.

Reviews
"Written in the bracing style of much of British journalism, this book is an easy read but a memorable one: you'll find yourself thinking about its revelations long after you finish it." -- Pittsburgh Post-Gazette "Pittsburgh Post-Gazette", ""Whether your involvement in security includes investigations or protection of IP, you will find gems of information in this book."" -- Terry Cochran ""Security Management"", "Best Bit: Spot the difference between real British Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce and a knockoff from Honduras: take a second glance and you realise it is called 'Lee Perkins'. Is nothing sacred? Clearly not." -The Daily Telegraph, November 2005 "Explores the impact of fake products across all aspects of business." -Supply Management, November 2005 "With the eyes and ears of the seasoned business journalist that he is, Phillips takes readers on a global tour of the pervasive and murky economy of counterfeit goods... Suitable for all public libraries and libraries supporting business and criminology programs." Peter R. Latusek, writing in Stanford Graduate School of Business Library, Library Journal "A dark and exciting read, it may make you think twice about that bargain you find while on holiday... Tim Phillips reveals the huge amount of harm the trade causes in this gritty look into the world's counterfeit underworld." Easy Jet in Flight, November 2005 "Phillips concludes with the widely held view that any hope of curbing piracy's spread will depend on how the world values and respects IP." Management Today, December 2005 "Takes readers on a global tour of the pervasive and murky economy of counterfeit goods." Library Journal, December 2005 "Is counterfeiting that big a deal? Most certainly... If it was a business, it would be the world's biggest and twice the size of its nearest competitor." Business Life, December 2005 "With a heavy international emphasis, the author demonstrates that the 'deadly' trade is just that - not just in terms of direct loss of life (a government-controlled newspaper reported that, in 2001, 192,000 people died in China because they took fake drugs), but also the fatal effects on worldwide brands, national economies and individual jobs." Trading Standards Today, January 2006 "Makes the case that counterfeits are hurting both large and small businesses while exacerbating unemployment, worker exploitation, child labour and worldwide poverty, and providing funding for terrorist activities." Fort Worth Star-Telegram, January 2006 "Phillips explains why we should care about counterfeiting and chillingly details who gets robbed, hurt and killed when we don't." Professional Manager, January 2006 "This disturbing book will make readers squirm in their seats if they've ever purchased counterfeit goods." Advance Magazine "Knockoff demonstrates how the seemingly innocent buying of a knockoff is actually completing a vicious cycle that relies on theft at the least and murder at its worst. Phillips' keen journalistic eye for the dramatic twists involved in the trade of counterfeits and his ability to turn a real-life crime story into a compelling tale of business treachery that affects a great many people make Knockoff a fascinating read." www.summary.com, "Best Bit: Spot the difference between real British Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce and a knockoff from Honduras: take a second glance and you realise it is called 'Lee Perkins'.
