This has been a real find. I am a lawyer and I have been searching for a book on accounting that would not be outrageously long and complex but at the same time most importantly that would not be trying too hard to be fun and exciting. This book is wonderful at explaining all the key concepts that I needed for the class of Financial Analysis. There were exercises for each chapter and subheading as well, which were really great for recap and just general check that I have been processing information well. I wish the authors published another book that would have taken financial analysis further, would have made my life a lot easier! There is really not much teach yourself and check yourself literature available on the subject, this is almost like taking a course in itself.
