The purpose of In the Public Interest is to help organizations develop stronger ethical practices by developing their own internal whistleblowing systems and providing protection and incentives for whistleblowers to speak out safely. The book focuses on the whistleblowing practices and regulations in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia, including examples like Wikileaks, Watergate, and Daniel Ellesberg and the Pentagon Papers. In the Public Interest is a must for not only legislators and administrators, but also researchers, students who are entering the workplace, and employees.
