Customer Reviews

More applicable learning than a whole year at University...

If you're already in the workforce and thinking of updating skills and knowledge by doing a few few subjects at a College, try this little book first. It may be all you need, and more, at a fraction of the investment in time and money. If you're a business student, this would be a great supplementary reader. Among other things, it's likely to keep your brain on the straight and practical. Happy reading.

Good text for learning basic accounting concepts

Excellent boook for understanding basic accounting from the CFO of a Fortune 1000 company.

Excellent!!

One of the best F & A books written for general managers I have read. Detailed enough to give the reader an excellent grasp of the subject, but doesn't require calculus to understand. If you're a manager who cringes during discussions of cash flow, cost of capital, and discount rates, this book is for you. Can't wait for other titles in the series!
