Summary: A terrific book for beginning accounting students!
Comment: This book is extremely clear and well organized. The presentation of accounting concepts is to the point and is explained in a practicable manner. Key points are repeated several times in different formats for easy reference and retrievel. Every topic is discussed with the who, what, when, where, and how in mind. It also includes key real world references/applications to help you become more aware of how these concepts fit in the real world context. If you desire a strong foundation in accounting, this book is most likely for you.
Rating: 4
Summary: Great resource for beginners
Comment: Seth Godin introduces readers to accounting, and doesn't assume that you have any knowledge about accounting at all. I highly recommend this book for people who are just beginning their accounting education and need to learn the basics, possibly before pursuing further education.

Summary: A good starting point
Comment: I thought the book was pretty good overall. It was quite well laid out, good examples and at times, even a little interesting (not an easy task for a book about accounting). The book is easy to read, you can finish it in a day of two and raise you financial IQ a few points. Its not a book for someone that really wants all the details, but more of a general introduction to some accounting and finance definitions. There is also a pretty good list of resources at the back of the book to go for more information.
One of the authors is Seth Godin. He is an interesting character, he is the VP of Direct Marketing at YAHOO, he wrote another book called "Permission Marketing" which also all right (but a little hyper at times). The interesting part about Seth is his other books are about things like bridge, Disneyworld, Dieting, DOS, Poker, Wine, Marketing, lots of other "If you are Clueless" titles, even one called "E-Mail addresses of the rich and famous". So he has a lot of experience writing for a very diverse group of people. Any way I would rate this book a buy.
