Customer Reviews

Great service

I ordered this product with regular delivery, then realized i needed it rushed to me. The company gladly sent it out right away with no extra charge. Quality was great for a used book, very few marks and the pages were in excellent shape. I definitely recommend buying from this supplier.

Self study

This book is perfect for self study, studying without colleges. It reads easy, has a perfect index and interesting information.

Modern, not Legacy AIS

It is a rare distinction to have written an Accounting textbook that works this well outside of the classroom. I have been reading this to update my knowledge in this area and with a possible eye to writing system documentation or perhaps designing a system of my own.The only topic I missed seeing in the index regards solving the coding problem that would allow generating an accurate statement of cash flow. Why this doesn't pop to the top of the request list among Accounting professionals I don't understand, but so far the treatment is inadequate.The other textbook of note in the AIS area is by Gelinas and Sutton and might fill whatever holes exist in Hall's textbook.
