Accounting: What the Numbers Mean, 6th edition,
By A Customer
This review is from: Accounting: What the Numbers Mean (Hardcover)
I ordered a 6th edition of the book, but was sent the 5th edition, which is useless for my class. The order arrived 2 days before my class starts. I have assignment due the first day of class being a graduate class. I have about 150 pages to read, and a paper to write, and have no time to deal with this mess. Trying to find a contact phone number for Amazon was impossible as well. This was a big shocker and a great disappointment in the whole ordeal of on-line ordering from Amazon and its third party.

Avoid at all costs!!!!,
By Rhino king "DC" (Cincinnati, Ohio United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Accounting: What the Numbers Mean (Hardcover)
I am having to use this book for an Accounting Grad class and it is perhaps one of the worst txt books I have ever laid my eyes on! Wordy doesn't begin to describe how bad this book is, did this go through an editor or straight to press? It just goes on and on and on throwing in examples that come later in the chapter, the examples are poor never follwing a simple path, and the questions at the end of each section are as bad as the book. This book reminds me of someone who decides to teach you something off of the top of their head, they didn't bother to make any notes or set a goal for how they wanted to approach the subject. Avoid at all costs!!!

Not Bad,
By A Customer
This review is from: Study Guide/Working Papers for use with Accounting: What the Numbers Mean (Paperback)
I had this book for a graduate level introductory accounting course. It wasn't as bad as the previous reviewer commented. However, at places, it does tend to get wordy. Hence, only 4 stars. Overall, it's good.
