I just finished my Chicago MBA accounting class with this book-including the solutions manual. I found the book+manual easy to read and understand and I was able to self-teach through most of the problems.
My book+manual are up for sale if anyone is interested. |

Good book - provided that you have face-to-face instruction

I am an MBA student at Chicago. Read three first chapters, can't understand why people have so much heat about it. The book seems to be good - although, a class instruction may be very helpful.

Just awful

One of the least useful textbooks I've ever read; I learned next to nothing from it. It's very poorly written, in very confusing style. Samples are placed several pages away from where they are referred to. As another reviewer stated, the authors don't explain much of anything -- it's like watching an expert accountant quickly burn through his work, then ask you if you understood everything you saw him do. The problems aren't very enlightening, either: instead of focusing on building up the basics, they seem to prefer to focus on special cases, so you're thoroughly confused about what to do in the normal case.
Yes, there are good reviews, but notice that two are commenting only on shipping speed, and the other was from a guy trying to sell his copy. I won't inflict my copy on anyone else, because I'd rather destroy it. |
