The book Faking Science by Diederik Stapel is an excellent view behind the scenes of a serial academic fraudster.

That's one way of turning a vice into a virtue... "Right, I've been found out to have fabricated years of research, entire PhDs are now junk. How can I make some more money out of this?"
Same as discredited politicians writing memoirs, WallStreet fraudsters turning into anti-fraud consultants, etc
Thanks for the advice. I read a few pages and it was well written. I'll continue reading it.
