Editorial Reviews

Review

I have used the book for several years because it is well written and has good supplementary material (including the website and PowerPoint slides.)

I like the proposed change of focus. The author is correct to refocus the text away from assurance services and emphasize on fraud, restatement, and earnings management. In fact I was looking at a new textbook for my auditing class next fall that emphasizes fraud and earning management.

1.0 out of 5 stars Poorly written, thumbs down, April 24, 2009
This review is from: Auditing (Hardcover)
Textbook is poorly written and very difficult to understand what author is implying. Auditing itself is a difficult topic which needed simple language so students can understand the subject. Instead writer is showing his vocabulary using difficult words and long convulated sentences resulting is loosing the thought process and wasting time trying to get the gist of what is written. I would recommend not to use this textbook.
