Customer Rating: Summary: Easy to use, really helpful Comment: I will keep this brief and to the point. I just started taking some accounting/finance classes and was a bit overwhelmed by all the new vocabulary. Flipping to the glossary in the back of a heavy textbook was inconvenient.
I bought this little, but exhaustive dictionary and now it sits next to me as I study. It makes the perfect companion to my texts. I am very happy I bought this (and others in the series) and will be even happier to put in on the shelf as an addition to my growing finance library. Customer Rating: Summary: Very Happy! Comment: I was very pleased with this item. Fast shipping. Product in excellent condition. Pleased with seller. Customer Rating: Summary: Very good choice of words Comment: This book is very intelligently written and organized. The definitions are skillfully worded to be precise, succinct and immediately comprehensible. It's actually a joy to meander through the book following the cross references to build up an expanding view of a topic. (Note: I'm fairly new to accounting). Very highly recommended, especially for the price. Customer Rating: Summary: Accounting Dictionary Comment: I needed something at work to look up certain words as I come across them. of course this book was perfect. I enjoy having it by my side, just to make sure I know what I'm dealing with and have an understanding of what I am doing. I def. recommend for all you accountants/auditors out there. Customer Rating: Summary: Excellent Comment: This book arrived in perfect condition and within a few days. I am very pleased with my purchase.
