Pahler (San Jose State U.) updates his time-tested text (the first edition was published in the early 1980s) with coverage of new standards and interpretations--particularly Interpretation No. 46 issued in 2003 as a result of Enron's improper consolidation practices. The emphasis is on critical thinking, and the text includes numerous cases and financial analysis problems, and personal situations involving ethics or interpersonal skills. Numerous articles from Newsweek and The Wall Street Journal are included to help students relate material to current events.
