About the Author
Robert R. Moeller has over 25 years experience in internal auditing, raging from launching new internal audit functions in several companies providing internal audit consulting and serving as audit director for a Fortune 50 corporation.
Moeller has an MBA in finance from the University of Chicago and an undergraduate degree in engineering; he has accumulated a wide range of professional certifications including the CPA, CISA, PMP, and CISSP. He was appointed the national director of information systems auditing for the major public accounting firm of Grant Thornton. There he developed firmwide audit procedures and directly managed information systems audits, and assumed responsibility for their Chicago office information systems consulting practice.
In 1989, Moeller was recruited to build and organize the first corporate information systems audit function for Sears Roebuck, an organization that then consisted of AllState Insurance, Dean Witter, and Discover Card, as well as the Sears retail operations. He went on to become their audit director, initiating numerous new practices. He has been active professionally in both the Institute of Internal Auditors and the AICPA. He was president of the IIA′s Chicago chapter, served on its International Advanced Technology Committee, and was chair of the AICPA′s Computer Audit Subcommittee.
In 1996, Moeller launched his own corporation, Compliance and Control Systems Associates, Inc., and presented seminars on internal controls and corporate governance throughout the United States. he was then talking about Sarbanes–Oxley issues well before the Act. He has helped launch a new consulting practice for EMC Corporations, has worked as a consultant and project manager, specializing in the telecommunications industry, and managed a cellular telephone financial system project on a worldwide basis. More recently, he has led in a series of Sarbanes–Oxley Section 404 projects in manufacturing, finance, and other industries. He continues to stay well–connected with the overall profession of internal auditing.
Robert Moeller lives with his wife, Lois, in the Chicago area. They enjoy sailing on Lake Michigan in the summer, skiing in Colorado and Utah, and participating in Chicago′s theatre, opera, and music scene.

Research book with enormous coverage
27 Feb 2005
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Scope of this book is enormous. It is like an encyclopedia - which is why I got the PDF version; cannot imagine carrying it around. It is not like a college book on Internal Audit, where for example, they take you through the business cycles (e.g., revenue cycle), but that be gotten elsewhere. The coverage is excellent on both the Financial and IT side for SOX - and for internal audit departments not following SOX.
The update for SOX is meaningful and through. If anyone wanted a history of internal audit, and the impact of SOX to the professional, great overview. While expensive, this is a reference manual and hard to imagine a subject where at worse, an excellent introduction is given to the topic at hand. I have not seen anything near as comprehensive, and well integrated so it is not just a bunch of chapters thrown together. Would seem to make the 5th edition obsolete because of so much new content.

The Bible of Internal Auditing
12 Nov 2009
Format:Hardcover
You've got to have this on your bookshelf. No question about it. Great reference! And invaluable guide. Covers virtually everything you need to know (from a BoK perspective) on Internal Audit. And at just the right depth.
I found the index to be especially useful. Have a question? Need a definition? Its right there! A "must-have".
