Review # 1 was written on 2012-03-12 00:00:00 Don Kusterbeck Surprisingly, this is not the snore-fest the title would have you believe. Maybe my opinion says more about me than about the book, but it's very straightforward and spends most of its time teaching you your way around a financial report and how to calculate a whole set of ratios to look for certain kinds of problems. The writing is pretty good, and I was pleasantly surprised that this one didn't bog down halfway through like the other Dummies books I've read. I must confess I didn't catch on to double entry bookkeeping and the credit/debit issue during the brief discussion of it in this book, but once again I think that says more about me, and it's not the focus of the book. I could understand the example financial statements and the calculations just fine.
