Gibson does not oversimplify financial statements. Rather, he involves students with the material by using real-world examples, with emphasis on the analysis and interpretation of the end result of financial reporting -- financial statements.

1.0 out of 5 stars
Very disappointing book....,
By A Customer
This review is from: Financial Reporting and Analysis: Using Financial Accounting Information (Hardcover)
This book is very disappointing. I also believe that this book is targeted to accountants, however, I think that it was written as a class project. This book is loaded with problems. For example, there are references to things for which there are no definations (e.g. materiality of options) there are basic errors in the case study (e.g. Case 9-5, p. 355, "Cumulative effect of accounting change, 189,191) and the 'supporting' CD does _not_ contain ANY of the income statement or balance sheets needed to solve any of the problems or case studies. These are just a few examples of the problems/errors that I've found. I'm sorry, but for and Eighth Edition and a good sum of money, I expected more! The only reason that I give it one star is because I could not give it any less (seriously!!).

2.0 out of 5 stars
poor textbook,
By A Customer
This review is from: Financial Reporting and Analysis: Using Financial Accounting Information (Hardcover)
This book was written by an accountant and it is readable only to accountants. If you do not have practical and extensive experience in accounting, you will have hard time learning about financial analysis. Explanations are very brief and not helpful. Only good thing about it is a lot of examples and good problems and cases to work on.

Bad and piece of krap,
By A Customer
This review is from: Financial Reporting and Analysis: Using Financial Accounting Information (Hardcover)
This book was written by a non accounting guy probably who knew more finance than accounting. This book should not be prescribed by any college or professor for accounting! Its terrible to comprehend coz the author does not explain from where or how he gets the numbers for the problems that he has worked out in the book. This book is confusing, creates frustration, and basically makes you loose your patience in minutes upon reading. I feel like I have been cheated of my hard earned money
