Samenvatting

'[This book] brings accounting theory into the twenty-first century. It identifies both the qualitative and quantitative aspects that influence accounting practice, [and] acknowledges that accounting is more than recording numbers. Today, most accountants must be able to express themselves, both linguistically and empirically, and therefore need to have a better understanding of the theoretical underpinnings of their role, and that involves more than borrowing from scientific and economic thought.' Dr Colleen Puttee—Associate Head of School, Research, University of Western Sydney
