يقع هذا المرجع االمحاسبي في 742 صفحة من القطع الكبير
يعتبر كتاب كيسو من أهم المراجع المحاسبية حتي الآن، فهو قد جمع بين مباديء المحاسبة أضافة إلي المعايير الدولية،
ومما يجعل هذا المرجع مميزا الأمثال الواقعية التي ذكرها وقصصه من الحياة الواقعية. وهذا المرجع أنصح به لك المشتغلين بمجال المحاسبة. ولكن باللغة الأنجليزية وهي غالية الثمن ويفضل أن تكون أخر طبعة له أو علي الأقل التي طبعت بعد عام 2018 لأن معظم المعايير الدولية قد تم تغيرها بعد هذا التاريخ.
وأخيرا أحب أن أشكر مجموعة المؤلفين_وللأسف لم أعثر لهم على أثر في الأنترنت_الذين أخرجوا هذا العمل العملاق وأتمنى أن يتاح لهم الوقت أن يضيفوا له أخر التعديلات في طبعة جديدة....

This book is very interesting and so helpful. I like how chapters are brief and rich with examples, illustarations, solved examples and exercises.
When necessary, some concepts are defined in more than one chapter.
The book covers all topics of accounting, from basic level up to advanced and managerial level.
I've read other books on accounting, but this one made accounting simpler than any other.

I love this book! As an introduction to accounting it is spectacular. I used it as part of my freshman accounting courses, Principles I and II. I definitely liked Principles I better than I did Cost Accounting, but this book was just overall so worth the read and an enormous resource. One hardly needs the professor with a book like this.

I want to give it a 3.5-star rating. The topics and concepts are well defined and explained. However the exhibits are not well explained. They need to check out chem and bio textbooks.

September 10, 2022قرأتُ جزءا منه فقط ثم آثرت التوقف. لأنه لا يتوافق واللمحة العامة والمختصرة جدا عن المحاسية التي أود الاطلاع عليها. كتاب ثمين للغاية

This is one of the best accounting textbooks I have used. It is much easier to understand than the other accounting principles text I used. I highly recommend the two study guides that go with this book. They are great too!

An engineering student liked the book. There he saw an 'allowed' Bangladeshi version at Dhaka New Market—it seemed to be genuine but less attractive. But it read well anyway.
