Benfords Law

Everyone,

I just completed reading a couple of books by Mark Nagrini on data analysis and Benford's Law. These are both excellent books that I highly suggest people consider. The website is as follows: http://www.nigrini.com/

Hi Jamie,

Thanks for your post and bringing these books to the attention of the group. I also have read both and they are excellent additions to an auditor's library. I have met Mark and he is truly a pioneer in using data analytics in auditing. I spent the past three days in a Fighting Fraud with Data Mining Techniques seminar using IDEA. We spent some time on running the Benford's test and discussing Mark and his work.
