Book Description
A corporation is an artificial legal person, existing only in the contemplation of law, having perpetual succession and common seal. Can a corporation commit crime, for its inability to form mens rea? If yes, then can it be accused of crimes as grave as homicide? Even post the Bhopal Gas Tragedy and the Uphaar Cinema Tragedy, absence of legislation such as the Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act, 2007 (UK) is no less a pity. Absolute liability theory (coupled with deep-pocket theory), though is an improvisation over the strict liability theory but has failed to ensure corporate criminal deterrence. This book is an attempt to ponder over issues relating to corporate criminal behaviour, in particular 'corporate homicide' and 'corporate manslaughter'.

Book Description
The subject Corporate Governance:Global Concepts and Practices has occupied centre- stage, particularly since the early 1990s in U.K., USA, rest of Europe, Canada, Japan, India and many other developing countries of the world. The present volume is essentially a comprehensive textbook, focusing on both concepts and corporate governance practices. Even before the Enron collapse and several other kingsize scandals, there has been a steadily mounting volume of complaints regarding the dismal state of governance in most large corporates across the globe, mostly relating to accounting irregularities and top dressing of financial results, almost universally perpetrated at the behest of the Company Chairman & CEO himself. Keeping the above ground realities in view, the present volume is intended to be a standard reference as well as textbook on the varied facets of corporate governance. The book has six distinct parts, containing in all as many as twenty-eight interrelated chapters.The first part deals with subjects like business environment, business ethics and social responsibilities, management of a firm, etc., while the second part is concerned with the theory of firm, its objectives, accounting standards and creative accounting practices. Part Three of the book dwells at length on the working of the company board, board committees, need for whistle blowing, corporate governance rating and need for separation of the positions of Chairman and CEO. Part Four presents summary recommendations of five Indian Committees on corporate governance in chronological order. These are (i) CII Committee (1998), (ii) Ist SEBI Committee (1999), (iii) Ganguly Committee-RBI (2002); (iv) Naresh Chandra Committee (2002) and (v) 2nd SEBI Committee (2003). Part Five contains six chapters comprising as many live cases on accounting scams. The sixth part of the book contains governance reports of three world class companies from India, viz., Infosys Technologies Ltd., Wipro, and Reliance Industries Ltd.
