If you need help with QuickBooks or QuickBooks Pro this book is excellent! It is easy to follow with step by step instructions & practical examples to help you fully understand. I keep this book at my desk and refer to it anytime I need a little help with QuickBooks. Thanks for a book that helps even a novice like myself!

2.0 out of 5 stars Less useful than I had expected based on other reviews., December 5, 2001

By A Customer

I found this book to be rather poorly organized and also not well written. I had a hard time finding my way around in the book. This is definitely not the only book a beginner will need in order to understand QuickBooks from an accounting perspective. There were just too many holes and too much that was unclear. I also found the writing disappointing and wondered if better editing would have helped. In general, this appeared to be a sort of home-made book. Sorry, but that's my impression. I have found it to be of little use compared to learning tools purchased directly from the manufacturer.

4.0 out of 5 stars It is simple, useful, and handy!, February 14, 2003

By A Customer

I found this book is more helpful and practical for people who already have some computer accounting background than for these who hope to gain in-depth Quickbooks knowledge. After three years of using Quickbooks Pro, I finally got rid of my previous study book that was 500 pages long and bought this one as my desk reference. Even though, as some poeple said, this book is nothing new and in most part a rewrite of the users' mannual, it is still a new book with a significant contribution from the author that makes it different--concise, simple, and handy!
