Faster, Higher, Farther
The Volkswagen Scandal
Jack Ewing
This shocking exposé delves into Volkswagen's emissions scandal, revealing how a culture of corporate greed and impossible sales targets led to employees resorting to illegal methods to deceive emissions-testing mechanisms. The book paints vivid portraits of key figures in the scandal, including Volkswagen's chairman and chief executive, and exposes the marketing campaign touting the company's "clean diesel" as a lie. A must-read for anyone interested in modern corporate culture and the consequences of putting profits above ethics.
