I was looking for a serious treatment of a very important subject and found the book trivial and very shallow. Sure there are cartoons, but if one wanted a cartoon book there are many more that are much better.
The whole Dummies series has gotten out of hand. They ought to team up with More Turkey Soup to be Spoon Fed by Dummies. Perhaps the series should be called Dummies Books by Dummies.
There are many better books about accounting than this.

I found it very difficult to understand as I am an idiot, but the different colored grey boxes displaying “Quick information” led me away from the body of the text and created confusion for myself.

I actually purchased this audio cd to refresh or relearn basic accounting in possibly a different way from my university level instruction, something to fill my time while driving to and from work. I thought that it was comprehensive with easy to understand concepts. I’m not sure how well it would do as a first time introduction to the subject matter but I figured that I myself, would use it as a supplement to information already learned. For those who are not accountants, I would recommend it to gain a basic understanding of the concepts governing accounting or as an introduction to accounting terms but not as a true learning experience. For accounting professionals-to-be I would recommend it as a supplement. In other words, I understood it only because I have already learned and practiced the principles.
