Accounting for Non-Accountants: The Fast and Easy Way to Learn the Basics by Sourcebooks, Inc.

Easy to understand and well organized.bv

I bought this book because, as a non-accountant, I wanted to learn about it for work and I found it very helpful. The author made ideas very easy to understand. I liked the examples and especially liked the glossaries at the end of each chapter. So, this is just a friendly thank you to Dr. L for writing such a book for non-accountants like me.

This book is not a completely from-scratch lesson in accounting; but for anyone with at least some minimal exposure to accounting concepts, it is a very practical and organized way to get through the fundamentals as a tool for business, MBA prep, or general knowledge.

Great Refresher!!!

I think Dr. Label's book offered me a great refresher in basic accounting. I took accounting, over thirty years ago. Many changes have occurred since then, however, this books sums up basic accounting as I remember. I have also used this book to help me explain accounting concepts to clients. Often accountants expect others to understand exactly what we are saying, however, all clients do not have the same level of accounting knowledge.

I think the layout works well. The concepts are explained, a QUICK Tip is provided, an Alert! is given, followed by a Quiz. This technique worked well, for me.
