The judge made it a part of the sentencing, plus 2 year probation. The judge was hoping his story could serve as a warning to other potential white-collar criminals (Bodnar claims he's innocent in the book, so not quite the warning the judge was hoping for).

The book was in the court records, but seems to have been pulled as I think Bodnar is trying to sell it now.

"When former pharmaceutical executive Andrew G. Bodnar pleaded guilty to white-collar crime in 2009, the judge didn't throw the book at him—he ordered him to write one.

Reflect upon "the criminal behavior in this case so that others similarly situated may be guided in avoiding such behavior," said the judgment from U.S. District Judge Ricardo M. Urbina in Washington. And make it 75,000 words.

The finished book, written during Dr. Bodnar's two-year probation, has been submitted into the court record."[1]
