1.0 out of 5 stars Outdated - don't buy this book, February 3, 2000
This review is from: Accounting for Derivatives (Hardcover)
Due to the arrival of FAS 133, this book is obsolete. The few examples the book had were difficult to follow. I bought this book before FAS 133 was issued and now,I regret I bought this book. Whatever you do don't buy it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Poorly written-of absolutely no use to practitioners, November 4, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Accounting for Derivatives (Hardcover)
No examples, no illustrations. Just a repetition of some FASB guidelines. Useless to a practitioner. And I can't see why a non-practitioner would ever want this. Give this one a pass. If you really need guidelines, just pay up and get a written opinion.
