Review # 1 was written on 2015-09-20 00:00:00 Robert English Mark Steven's The Big Eight, appears to be an authority on the major accounting firms leading up to the publication of the book. I am unsure if this suggests more about the large accounting firms ability to conceal their identity from the public or conversely the utter disinterest the public has toward large accounting firms. As an authority this book presents value in the sense that it provides the reader with general insight as to how a firm saw itself & how those within the firms viewed themselves, without revealing the monumental impact the macro effects this industry plays on the general public. One notion that brought a wry smile to my face was that of concern in regard to the advancement in revenue of the large accounting firms being derived from consulting services versus that of auditing services.

Review # 2 was written on 2019-09-07 00:00:00 Ian Guy I was a cigarette salesman for RJ Reynolds tobacco company when i began exploring other careers and stumbled upon The Big Eight. After I completed it I quit my job at the age of 30, got an MBA from Indiana University, somehow passed the CPA exam, even though I was a marketing major, and landed an audit staff position at one of the Big Eight firms, Coopers & Lybrand. During my career I co-authored a John Wiley professional book on forensic accounting, which was my specialty. Thirty-five years later I am a retired Pwc partner (C&L later merged with Price Waterhouse). Mark Stevens's book inspired me to turn my life around. I owe him a lot!
