Study guide for Financial accounting: An introduction to concepts, methods and uses and Fund... Book

Too dense to explain accounting

I suffered through this book for my accounting course at Fuqua, Duke's School of Business. Although it was written by two highly lauded Duke professors, this book is not easy to understand and quite verbose and confusing. I learned the basic concepts by teaching myself with the practice problems and answer guide rather than reading the chapters. The concepts are explained in too much detail and not in a logical order, which makes reading this book with tiny print unbearable. I do not recommend this book if you have no basic knowledge of accounting.
