Summary: This book serves as a reminder to every reader of the truism that recognition of the ailment is already one half of the solution. As an enumeration of the many faces of corruption, this book should be of great use by the practitioners of human resource management. As the reader proceeds to read about the litany of corrupt practices, he wonders why very little is offered by the author regarding the possible ways of preventing ills, or, at least, minimizing the ills by preparing to create the proper atmosphere which could possibly lead to the avoidance, or possible suppression of the ills mentioned by the author. The presciption for the avoidance or minimization of the corrupt practices cannot possibly be attained by a single book of enumeration, but certainly points the readers to delve into the subject further by emphasizing the need for improvement and strenthening of basic human values. The author has succeeded in sratching the surface of Philippine society's ills and this awareness should lead the readers to participate in the development of programs which will enhance the strength of moral values which can combat corruption in all its forms.
