1.0 out of 5 stars Worst Text Book Ever, July 1, 2007
This book is horrible. It does show you how to work the problems. It's full of high level explanation and no deep explanation of the concepts or the problems. It's poorly organized and super expensive. It does not contain answers to the odd problems in the back of the book like most (math type of books) text books tend to have. There is no study guide for this edition; the publisher's web site claims there exist, I have not found it there or anywhere else. However, a study guide does exist for the previous edition. There is a solutions manual that one has to purchase a key to access the anwers to the odd problems online. The solutions manual falls really too, because it just gives the answers and offers no explanation of the problems. I really need some kind of study guide that explains the problems in detail so that I can check myself. The book has a companion site that is a little helpful, it has one online quizzes, chapter summary and spreadsheets for each chapter.

1.0 out of 5 stars Piece of sh--, February 2, 2009
This book is EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING to learn from. I wanted to punch the authors in the face after trying to read the chapters (useless) and doing the problems (impossible to do after learning nothing from reading the chapter).

1.0 out of 5 stars steer clear, January 30, 2009
By Fabio Mantovani "fm" (San Francisco, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Although extremely rigorous in definitions and concepts, definitely not the type of text book I would recommend for a MBA introductory accounting class. Steer clear.
The structure is confusing, and the way it has been presented made it even more confusing. Only positive note are the problems at the end of each chapter, which are challenging enough and offer a good preparation even for the toughest tests.
Previously, I had another intro accounting class in which Horngren/Harrison Financial Accounting Managerial was used. I have found this latter text book much clearer, to the point, concise.
