Earlier this year Kirkus praised the book stating, “Kohn is a vivid, authoritative guide, and it’s a testament to his narrative skill that he can make this niche subject so consistently gripping. Definitive and compulsively readable.”

In Rules for Whistleblowers, his ninth publication, he shares insights and strategies for winning a whistleblower case, all based on his 39 years of experience.
