Absolutely Horrible! Aug 29, 2009 By Joshua J. Stackhouse
This textbook is HORRIBLE! I usually frown on using such harsh language for reviews, but this truly deserves it. Some people, and I trust that these people are indeed RARE individuals, may find the new examples helpful but they are not. This textbook fails in the area most critical to success, in that it does NOT succeed in approaching the subjects from a students perspective. It is extremely difficult to learn from this text because the examples in it are SO numerous that your though process is interuptted every 30 seconds with some illustrative example. I find these examples mostly to be unnecessary with a solid lecturer. Perhaps CENGAGE should have considered placing all the examples in one section and referencing them instead, but the fact remains that the learning process is disrupted often by unnecessary examples and illustrations.

The text itself is fairly straighforward, but it can be confusing at times. Again, a fact I attribute mostly to poor design and oversight. I would not recommend this textbook to anyone. It's overpriced and you will want to bang your head into the desk while trying to make sense of the poppycock these buffoons called editors expect us to accept. You have failed horribly CENGAGE. Forget your stupid GPS model, and just make a clear and easy to understand text. Is it really that hard?

Craptastic Feb 24, 2008 By Dave
This book sucks. I payed $133 for it at my bookstore and it has no binding for it. On top of that the text of the book and example problems is horrid and confusing to follow. To any teachers looking to use this book, KEEP ON LOOKING. IT SUCKS!!!!

Not worth the paper it is printed on. Jan 27, 2008 By Cody
This book is the most horrible book I have ever tried to study out of. I took Accounting twice, both times I concentrated the entire semester on just studying this book and accounting and I still have trouble with the subject of accounting. The videos were no help at all, just a talking head with power point slides, and whoever they used for the talking head guy put me to sleep every time I listened to him.

Information for College parents and students Sep 17, 2010 By k8tyH
I bought this book based on the edition and the author for my niece for college. Her instructor told her it was the wrong book. So we went and paid 145.00 for supposedly the correct one at the college bookstore. To our dismay, comparing the books, they were identical. Colleges are purchasing specific books and editions and are having them re-printed and bound with a different cover specific to the college. So while the cover may be different the contents of the books are identical. I found this to be the case with the English and psychology books as well. So, while the books listed for sale in the general public or at Amazon are anywhere from 17.00 to 50.00, the books sold by the schools are 80.00 to 200.00. The one sold by the college was hole punched and had to be put in a huge binder. This one was an actual book. I recomend doing your research before purchasing so-called mandatory books marketed by the colleges.

Just Plain Bad Dec 21, 2009 By Big T "T"
For starters, I'd like to say I got a B+ in my Accounting class, so this review is not a "revenge" post or anything like that. However, this textbook is awful. There are technical typos, mislabeled headings, and problems everywhere. The writing style does a poor job of explaining complex concepts. The example problems do a poor job of explaining the logic behind the answers. The practice problems at the end of each chapter are useless since no answers are provided to see if you are doing the process properly (a HUGE drawback since these problems need to be practiced constantly).

The online homework does an extremely bad job of preparing you for the tests, so be careful if your professor is only using that to prepare you for your exams. My class had a 60% failure rate on the first exam. 60%!!!

Speaking of exams, if your professor is using the exams provided by the publisher, well then god help you. They are extremely, gruesomely hard. Find out ahead of time what your professor is using. If he's using the provided tests, then you need study like crazy and write out solutions BY HAND and FROM MEMORY before test day or YOU WILL FAIL! Remember: 60% failure rate!
