4.0 out of 5 stars The more I read this book, the more I understand why and how today's accounting runs., September 7, 2005
By 
Hsinhsi LIN (Taipei, Taiwan, Republic of China) - See all my reviews
This review is from: HISTORY OF ACCOUNTANCY IN USA: THE CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE OF ACCOUNTING (HISTORICAL PERSP BUS ENTERPRIS) (Paperback)
The more I read this book, the more I understand why and how today's accounting runs. My major is Engineering, not business nor accounting. I tried to study accounting by myself. But I was confused about the reason that the accounting should run the way the textbooks said. Till I read the history of accounting. This book talked the accounting's history in the United Stated of America. I get how today's accounting come from and the close relation between accounting and business in the USA. That's to say, if there was not the history of accounting, the history of business did not live today. Reading this book is good for you, of course, and me.

3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting but distracted, November 2, 2003
By 
Matt Doyle (Mountain View, California USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: HISTORY OF ACCOUNTANCY IN USA: THE CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE OF ACCOUNTING (HISTORICAL PERSP BUS ENTERPRIS) (Paperback)
A generally interesting and enjoyable book. The drawback is that the authors' somewhat socialist world-view takes them into irrelevant tangents.
