Are you looking for a paperweight? Something to add weight to your car so it will be easier to manoever on ice? Perhaps you are seeking something to assist you in making panini and you don't have a proper flattening device and are fresh out of bricks. If any of the above are the case, this is the book for you! Weighing in at just a whisker less than an entire fully grown housecat, here is Intermediate Accounting!

The text itself is printed with a bit much contrast, so if you have a learning show more disorder, use a colored filter of some sort. The pages are super glossy. The information is useful and is presented, for the most part, in a most logical manner. Unfortunately, it's mindnumbingly dull. At least the Enron scandal has caused accounting books to add stuff on ethical scenarios that will help break the mindnumbing boredom. Be sure to read this book straight after taking a lower level accounting class. If you read it more than 3 years after your last accounting class, you're going to wonder how they figure out what goes on a balance sheet and how an insurance payment is supposed to balance out on the asset side of things until you finally give up and use the book as a panini press on your stove, narrowly avoiding a kitchen fire. show less
