Financial Accounting Study Guide.......2007-10-05
Arrived in excellent, brand new condition. Came in a timely fashion. Great study guide with review and practice questions.
Not a good book from a student point of view, but serves the purpose.......2005-10-13
I bought this book because it is required for my Financial Accounting course. The book serves its purpose, which is to introduce the world of financial accounting to student like me who has no business background. However, the author has injected a lot of personal opinions into the text, which some are really biased. For example, the author emphasize on the mis-trust between management and investor. There is, to some extent especially after the scandals of Enron and WorldCom, but author has exaggerated it. Also, my professor, a former CFO, pointed out some formulas and pratices on the book have no value in the real world. The plus side is that the text in the book is not hard to understand.
Speedy Delivery.......2005-09-03
I got the book three day after I ordered.
Incredible fast .....
Thanks for doing me a favor.
Not even an answer key to the exercises.......2003-03-08
The book is easy to understand, but there should be a solutions manual, or at least an answer key to the exercises. It has been very difficult for me to "learn the mechanics" and "apply the concepts" at the end of each chapter. The pace of the course allows the teacher to solve only 2 or 3 exercises in class, and the book certainly does not make selfstudy easy. Needless to say, that you can't learn financial accounting just by reading. To makes things even worse, a study guide, which does not refer to the same exercises in the book, is out of print.
Confusing.......2001-04-13
The text is very confusing.

ASIN: 061834599X |
Book Description
Microeconomics in Context challenges conventional approaches to the field by covering the physical and social/psychological factors influencing economic activities before introducing underlying principles. Unlike other titles, the authors present a broad look at economics in context, allowing students to connect their view of the real world with key economic concepts.
- The authors highlight how goals and values shape people's decisions in all aspects of their lives, including on economic-related issues.
- The text features coverage of all three types of economies: the business economy involving commercial firms; the public purpose economy focusing on government, non-profit, and non-governmental organizations (including international agencies); and the core economy of households and communities.

mainstream econ and it's critique (from a broader perspective).......2007-02-24
I found a descriptive review of this book on the AdBusters-dot-org website
http://adbusters.org/the_magazine/69/The_Revolution_Will_Begin_with_a_Textbook_Part_Two.html
Flipping through your introductory text, you discover that it's not made up of countless variations of curves intersecting. Prose that celebrates perfectly competitive though non-existent markets seems to be in short supply. Economic heresies - "other goals may sometimes outweigh the goal of maximizing production" and "wealth itself is not well-being" - are committed left and right. After 18 years, the economics department has finally switched textbooks.
While this new text still has supply and demand curves, there are also discussions about global warming and biodiversity loss. The authors draw on insights from psychology. They raise questions about overconsumption in rich countries. And they expose the mainstream circular flow model - the one that endlessly creates products without material or energy inputs, and without generating waste - as a fraudulent perpetual motion machine. You are, to say the least, a bit taken aback.
Welcome to Microeconomics in Context, by Neva Goodwin and three of her colleagues, a team that has expertise in mainstream, feminist, institutional and ecological economics. Their text dives right into poverty, inequality, unemployment, the gains and costs involved in trade, the linkages between economic activity and the environment. To the trio of activities that are normally the focus of economic analysis - production, distribution and consumption - the authors add resource maintenance. It's a massive leap forward for economists to methodically look at what is needed in order to tend to, improve or preserve the natural and social resources that support economic activity and quality of life.
Homo economicus still makes appearances in Goodwin's book, but mainly to help students converse in the language of neoclassical economists. Instead, the authors focus on how society can shape the economy to enable people to live healthy, meaningful lives and to live in harmony with each other and with nature. They seek to resurrect the profession's historical interest in exploring means other then economic growth for alleviating poverty and deprivation. Their economics once again focuses on well-being, rather then the artifice of utility, which allows us to replace the maximization of consumption with more complex goals.
Markets still have their place, the authors concede. They communicate information about desires and scarcity amongst buyers and sellers. They create incentives and they help coordinate economic activity. But they do not correct for inequities in distribution, leaving some desperately poor while others buy a third vacation home. Markets can also favor the undemocratic exercise of power, and they can undermine the conditions required for sustainability and community. Economic policy, this text argues, must take into account these realities.
Microeconomics in Context is the ideal text for getting a solid foundation in both neoclassical microeconomics and its limitations. It also looks sufficiently like a mainstream textbook that some profs might be able to teach from it without the department chair noticing that a heretical text had made it into the building. But because it seeks to provide a foundation in the neoclassical approach, even from a critical perspective, its treatment of alternative schools of thought is at times limited. nate
Heterodox enough.......2005-08-29
This book does exactly what the above
Book Description says it does so there is no need to give a summary description here.
Because this book takes a "broader" approach (which here means that it incorporates insights from non-neoclassical schools of thought and other disciplines), it necessarily gives a bit less attention to the "mechanics" of some basic neoclassical tools (viz. details about and permutations of graphical representations of models).
This is not to say it doesn't deal pretty fairly with the dominant paradigm or give a clear introductory account of it. It certainly does that. It is suggested, however, that a student wishing to thoroughly understand some of the finer details of graphical representations of neoclassical models (and deductions from them) should use this book in conjunction with a "standard" introductory Microeconomics textbook, such as by Robert Frank or John Sloman.
Equally, if a good student is to become a good economist, s/he would do well to read Goodwin et.al. in conjunction with their "standard" text. Thinking outside the (Edgeworth) box is more and more a prerequisite for economists these days.
Excellent.......2005-07-15
This book does an excellent job providing an heterodox view of microeconomic theory. It provides insights from economists outside of the neoclassical model (many Nobel Prize winners), giving a more complete and realistic picture of how economics works. It is also clearly written with excellent examples and clear quantitative analysis.

Book Description
The financial crisis is a recurring phenomenon, yet its various instances have differed greatly in nature. Crises have punctuated the history of Western financial systems since the early eighteenth century variously appearing in the guise of stock market crashes, large-scale failures of financial enterprises, collapses in the external value of a nation's currency, or some combination of the three.
This study explores the major patterns of change in the evolution of financial crises as enduring phenomena, and analyzes the paradoxical position that crises are at once similar to and different from each other. Brenda Spotton-Visano examines economic, psychological and social elements intrinsic to the process of capitalist accumulation and innovation to explain the enduring similarities of crises across historical episodes. She also assesses the impact that changing financial and economic structures have on determining the specific nature of crises and the differential effect these have in focal point, manner and extent of transmission to other, otherwise unrelated, parts of the economy.
Financial Crises offers a consistent method for interpreting variations in financial crises through time and allows for a better overall appreciation for both the transitory fragility and enduring flexibility of financial capitalism and the potential vulnerability created by on-going financial development.

Book Description
The standing of industrialization has fallen in the list of social and economic objectives of developing countries in recent years. Turkey provides an ideal example of this beginning with a program adopted in 1980 under the auspices of the IMF and the World Bank. The macroeconomic and microeconomic issues concerning Turkish industrialization in global context with particular emphasis on the decade of the 1980s are examined. The rapid transformation in industrialization strategy from import substitution under heavy state direction to outward orientation has had a profound effect on industrialization of Turkey.

Book Description
Economic Principles of Law applies economics to the doctrines, rules and remedies of the common law. In plain English and using non-technical analysis, it offers an introduction and exposition of the 'economic approach' to law - one of the most exciting and vibrant fields of legal scholarship and applied economics. Beginning with a brief history of the field, it sets out the basic economic concepts useful to lawyers, and applies these to assess the core areas of the common law - property, contract, tort and crime - with particular emphasis on their doctrinal structure and remedies. This is done using leading cases drawn from the birthplace of the common law (England & Wales) and other common law jurisdictions. The book serves as a primer to the wider use of economics which has become increasingly important for law students, lawyers, legislators, regulators and those concerned with our legal system generally.

It may be short, but it's sweet!.......2002-02-23
Other reviewers of this book here at Amazon seem to feel that the author is skimping on the details, and that he uses the laws we have to live with as filler. I disagree. Personally, I don't have time to read a lengthy discourse on how to get out of debt, repair my credit, or work towards being financially stable. This book contains more than enough valuable information to get anyone with credit woes on the road to recovery. When I bought this book just over a month ago, I had 11 negative marks on one of my credit reports. After taking the sample letters in this great book and modifying them to meet my needs, I have changed 9 of these marks to positive, and am negotiating on the last 2. I found this book to be an invaluable tool, as a novice to the way debt works.
Reviewed by professional credit consultant.......2002-01-11
This book may be helpful for someone who needs some basic knowledge about credit repair and debt issues. However, Mr Hammond merely added very little updated information and creates another edition to be sold in the market place. More than half of the book consists of credit regulations, and out of date phone numbers for many governmental organizations and creditors alike. It is obvious he does not put in much additional effort in creating new additions. Also, some of his techniques may not work for everyone. If he spends any time practicing in this field (which I feel he have not) he would have written more practical credit repair techniques which may prove beneficial to consumers out there.
Highly Recommended!.......2001-11-21
Bob Hammond discusses how to reduce debts, repair credit and deal with creditors and collection agencies. He includes tips on negotiating debts downward and sample letters to creditors. The detailed appendix includes the U.S. Fair Credit Reporting Act, Equal Credit Opportunity Act and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. This book is primarily targeted to small business owners, employees and the unemployed or underemployed who are having debt problems. We [...] appreciate the basic, "do this," tone of voice and the practical approach to helping someone climb out of debt. (While some of these strategies might be useful anywhere, only U.S. law is discussed.)
Could have been a pamphlet.......2000-05-28
The information that you need to start repairing your credit is in here and so is some stuff about reducing debt. The book covers how to order your report, dispute it and follow up with the Credit agencies. It has sample letters that you can use with your own information. It has techniques on working with creditors to have them remove negative information from your report for you.
Overall, I don't feel ripped off, but I am a bit disappointed. There could have been much more detail in the areas of Keeping your credit report from being damaged, building good credit, and strategies for saving money and reducing debts (which are the cause of bad credit in the first place). This type of book would be much more useful in the form of a workbook rather than the front to middle reading it is.
The book gives you what it promises, but not in the best form and with a ton of filler. The second half of the book is just a reprint of Credit Laws which could come in handy if I was working with a lawyer or could understand it myself, but otherwise is just there to add pages.
Judging by the number of books that Bob Hammond has written on the subject, I would say that he is just revamping old work, adding a lot of filler text and calling it a new book.
The information in this book is so rudimentary should be free. But I give it 3 stars because it has helped me get the ball rolling with my credit.
Essential reading for anyone trying to make ends meet........2000-04-07
Now in a fully updated third edition, Bob Hammond's Life After Debt continues to be the most practical, reader friendly, single volume guide to personal money management and emancipation from crippling debt available to the reading public.

Life After Debt is enhanced with addresses and phone numbers of consumer credit services, state banking authorities, and other financial stability resources.

Book Description
In 1995 more than 65,000 Canadians declared personal bankruptcy. This follows several years of increased rates of personal insolvency, and many economists think things are only going to get worse. Yet there is hope. In his new book, bankruptcy and financial management expert Frank Kisluk proves that there is Life After Debt.
Based on Kisluk's 20 years of experience as a bankruptcy trustee, Life After Debt explains how the Canadian personal bankruptcy system really works. It guides readers through the process from the very beginning (many people may find that there are steps they can take to avoid bankruptcy altogether) through to the discharge from bankruptcy.
If you are determined to escape the debt trap and take control of your finances, you'll find the answers you're looking for in Life After Debt.
