This book is concerned with cheating in Science and the harm that it does, concentrating on three disasters in cell culture, which caused international concern and personal tragedy for the perpetrators. There is an overview of plant, animal and human cheating, providing a background to the focus on Science. This demands a special form of truth in that claims need to be substantiated by repetition in independent laboratories to confirm that the claims work. The nature of originality is examined in art and Science.An attempt has been made to determine the background and motives for cheating in Science in the certain knowledge that it will be unmasked leading to scandal.Advice is given to the young Scientist and suggestions have been made as to how fraud in Science could be reduced by more regulated supervision. There is a need to revise the regulations and assessment of claims of originality and the whole review process of journals to avoid publishing fake data.This text is unusual in focusing on three well-documented cases. The data should not have been published in high impact journals if more rigorous review had been made. Journals should require independent repetition of claims that seem to be 'too good to be true'. This little book should be of considerable interest to young scientists, historians of science and editors of scientific journals. The general reader might find it fascinating to learn how science works or does not work.

"The lack of academic integrity combined with the prevalence of fraud and other forms of unethical behavior are problems that higher education faces in both developing and developed countries, at mass and elite universities, and at public and private institutions. While academic misconduct is not new, massification, internationalization, privatization, digitalization, and commercialization have placed ethical challenges higher on the agenda for many universities. Corruption in academia is particularly unfortunate, not only because the high social regard that universities have traditionally enjoyed, but also because students-young people in critical formative years-spend a significant amount of time in universities. How they experience corruption while enrolled might influence their later personal and professional behavior, the future of their country, and much more. Further, the corruption of the research enterprise is especially serious for the future of science. The contributors to Corruption in Higher Education: Global Challenges and Responses bring a range of perspectives to this critical topic"--

Radical capitalists running some companies, public organizations, and governments resort to aggressive techniques to destroy people’s intellectual skills. Some examples of these criminal practices are preventing employees from enrolling in lifelong learning programs, forcing students to go to unfunded high schools, or allowing universities to become corporations that do not care about knowledge. Citizens need to be aware of these corporate behaviors; otherwise, radical capitalism will destroy their social consciousness and condemn them to be enslaved people who only work and buy products but do not think and do not understand society. In this book, I identify some of these practices and propose ideas to protect people’s right to learn. This book consists of five chapters, each focusing on different life stages: childhood (0-12 years), adolescence (13-19 years), adulthood (20-39 years), middle age (40-59 years), and old age (60 years and above). Each chapter includes 200 examples from different countries that prove how radical capitalists in some companies, public organizations, and governments try to destroy culture. This cultural genocide affects citizens throughout their lives.
