 Good Basic Introduction October 2, 2008
This book is basically a novice's introduction to accounting and has, for that individual, very good detail that is straight forward and easy to understand. The author covers the essentials of balance sheets, income statements, and cash flow very well with pretty easy examples and good interpretations and definitions. The latter part of the book has more discussion of current accounting issues and principles in fairly simple terms. Not a lot of hard detail, so this book is not for an individual experienced in the world of finance. An example is Sarbanes Oxley, which although the cover says it is covered in a blurb, it really is only covered in a few pages. The book is entertaining in areas as all these books are. Thus, it's a good introduction for those with little knowledge and should be seen as a building block to a more challenging publication.
 Just waht I needed September 16, 2008
This book is well-written, and covers the topics I had hoped it would. It has helped me get an understanding about the basics of accounting. As a small business owner I don't need all the technical stuff... and this was geared to my level. I'm glad I bought it. I'm actually going to read it again just to cement some of the ideas into my thinking.
Helpful Book! August 17, 2008
Great book. It helped me understand accounting and it was easy to pick up the tricks and the trades of this course.

Great book. I can't do math (I went to private school) but even I was able to follow the clear, well written formulas in this book.
Great Book! November 7, 2006

This is a great accounting book, but I work in a government office and the procedures here are very different that what is depicted in the book. I found some sections very helpful though and if I worked at a small business and was required to set up an accounting system this would have been that perfect book.
