Deadly Disclosures
Whistleblowing and the ethical meltdown of Australia
William De Maria
Australian whistleblowers, like miners with
lights on their hats, take us into a world of wrong-doing that
few of us know or want to believe exists.
Deadly Disclosures is a provocative analysis
of the degeneration of public ethics in Australia. William De Marias
attack on public wrong-doing is carried on the wings of case studies
of Australians who have blown the whistle in order to improve
ethical standards and suffered terribly for their efforts. His
book paints an alarming picture of Australian institutions and
workplaces where managers and employees alike turn a blind eye
to wrong-doing and victimise the minority who rock the boat.
Bill De Maria has written an important
and fascinating book which reminds us how corruption protects
itself and how it can be exposed by honest and brave soldiers
for truth. Evan Whitton
