Accounting for Non-specialists by Michael J Jones

Accounting for Non-specialists by Michael J Jones

"Accountancy for Non-Specialists" is a resource for professionals and non professionals who are familiar with accounting practices but have never received training. As well as a thorough treatment of core material on financial and management accounting, this book provides coverage of other important topics such as the regulatory framework, corporate governance, creative accounting, international accounting and strategic management accounting. The text blends theory and practice by stressing the underlying concepts and context of accounting and supplemented by working examples to illustrate key issues. NOTE: The primary audience for this book is the UK, however it also contains references to, and includes a chapter on international accounting.

"..This is an excellent introductory text with some novel features ...an eclectic range of sources ...make for a more stimulating text book--one that you may actually enjoy reading!..." (Accountancy Ireland, December 2002) "...This is a new textbook that benefits from an authorial voice underpinned by technical competence. Its humour and authority will, in different ways, benefit both Miss Blimber and the Fruit Bat. It is set up well to become a key text in its chosen domain..." (Accounting Education) "...This is one of few books that blends theory and techniques with humour...a very good textbook who have begun basic accountancy courses..." (Money Matters, April 2003)

MICHAEL JONES is Professor of Financial Reporting and Director of the Financial Reporting and Business Communication Unit at Cardiff Business School.
