A really good information source. I was a bit overwhelmed at all the terms initially but thought they were explained well. A great primer on financial accounting.

I think for the most part, the book is straightforward. Accounting can be like learning another language. I think those with familiarity with accounting and economics will find the author reviews at a high level much of what they learned in school. I think people new to the subject or looking for help will not find it helpful.

Since this is an accounting topic, I would have preferred seeing illustrations of actual financial statements (Balance Sheet and Income Statement) rather than a reference to them. I don’t know if the e-copy I received would be different from a paper version of the book. Given the number of examples, having a visual like the Balance Sheet or Income Statement would reinforce learning. There are several diagrams in the book so I think a few more would be helpful.
I personally am used to seeing footnotes or references. I don’t see that in this work. I think that would be helpful for the assertions made in the book. It shouldn’t be too hard as the author gives Case Studies in the book – but I didn’t see a referencing source. There is a glossary. That’s probably small but since actual businesses were brought up…

Overall, this was a straightforward easy read which can be done in a relatively short time. No complicated subjects in my opinion.

Although it covers a bunch of material, it doesn't do a good job of it. The definitions contain words that are part of the word. The descriptions are brief and kind of unclear. This is basically a dictionary of terms.

I'm new to reading financial books. The author gave definitions to the terms he would be using. That was very helpful to me. Each chapter built upon the other so that it goes step by step. The information is useful and put in a concise way to understand it better. I believe that this book will continue to be useful to me in the future.
