What is a counterfeit? 

A counterfeit is an imitation, usually one that is made with the intent of fraudulently passing it off as genuine. Counterfeit products are often produced with the intent to take advantage of the established worth of the imitated product. For more information please visit  www.stopcounterfeitbooks.com. 

Why should I report piracy and counterfeits? 

Counterfeiting and piracy deprives authors and those involved in the publication of copyrighted material from being compensated. Additionally, counterfeiting and piracy results in millions of dollars lost in potential sales. In fact – it contributes to the rise in textbook prices due to higher production costs.
