A disturbing trend faces education in the U.S.: not plagiarism but academic forgery (students purchasing and signing their names to work produced by others). This book describes the difference between the two and presents case studies written by a former professional forger, along with an expose of the trade. The author provides thorough treatment of the topic and reveals the serious implications for the future of academia. Educators should educate themselves about forgery and join the conversation about solving the problem.
