A thorough, informative biking guide.......2004-07-22

For anyone considering a biking trip out west, this is about as complete a guide as you are likely to find. What is appealing about The Santa Fe Trail by Bicycle is how comprehensive it is, covering everything from very practical information about what to bring on the trip, to history about places all along the trail, and tips at each stage of the journey for enduring a difficult trip. For non-professional cyclists who want to have a Southwest Adventure, biking the Santa Fe Trail is an ideal goal, and this book an excellent guide.

A set of DeLorme's would be much better.......2001-09-03

Over the years I've been jigsawing an asphalt free transamerica together, and had hoped that this book would of provided some additional information on alternative routes through this area. It did not. The book lacked useable route maps, and was too chatty. The section on choosing a bike and campgear may be good for the novice, but any experienced long distance rider would care less. For me, my money, and time would of been better spent on a good set of topos,and a few hours of research at a local library. I rate this book at less than 1/2 of a star - good only for those new to touring cycling with only one or two short trips under their belt.

A decent overview of Los Alamos area biking.......1999-02-18

This book isn't bad - but if fails to include probably half of the singletrack in the county, and puts in a lot of crappy dirt road rides. It's a bit dated, and the maps aren't very clear at all, but if you're new to Los Alamos or just visiting and need a guidebook, this is pretty much your only option.

Book Description

Touring New Mexico is a new travel guide by the authors of New Mexico: A New Guide to the Colorful State. More portable than its predecessor, the book includes the same personal introduction to New Mexico's land, people, food, art, and environment in a smaller format. Each of the eighteen tours begins in a readily accessible town and many can be completed in one day. Clear, readable maps accompany each tour. In addition to covering the usual tourist attractions, the authors provide a calendar of yearly events, entradas that describe the various ways to enter the state, and up-to-date information on the less well-known small towns, farming communities, pueblos, and villages that only travelers with an intimate knowledge of the state and its culture could provide. Touring New Mexico will be especially valuable to the first time visitor or newcomer, but it will also be a handy reference for residents who love to explore their state. Enlivened by line drawings by artist and calligrapher Katherine Chilton, this book will charm and inform readers and explorers.

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.

The text is very confusing.

Book Description

Context and Application Value-Based Management Edited by Glen Arnold and Matt Davies Over the past ten years hundreds of leading companies worldwide have adopted the principles of value-based management (VBM), an approach to corporate strategy and business organisation in which the primary objective is always shareholder wealth maximisation. As VBM has become more widespread the idea of shareholder value has become integral to business. Consultancies have prospered by selling prescriptions for developing a value-oriented firm and managers thought to be excellent in generating shareholder value are held in high esteem and command huge salaries. This book draws on empirical evidence to demonstrate the success of VBM ideas as well as highlighting many of the hidden questions, doubts and difficulties. It examines the validity of some of the underlying assumptions of VBM and tackles many of the key technical issues. This book provides a timely assessment of the theory and practice of VBM as it grows to maturity.

Book Description

Accounting in a Business Context covers all the key areas of financial and management accounting, but is written specifically for non-accounting students. It focuses on how managers will actually use information, rather than how accountants prepare it. This way it avoids burdening the general business student with unnecessary technical skills or obscuring the core management issues with accounting jargon. This fully updated and revised edition takes account of all the latest ASB developments, and includes new material on ratio analysis and activity based costing.

Attractively presented but incomplete text.......1997-04-23

'Accounting in a Business Context' is an attractively presented text for non-accountants which draws on interesting examples from business life to illustrate various points. However, from the beginner's point of view, it lacks the simple summaries and overviews that could make it a useful reference work and its index is sadly lacking fundamental concepts such as Turnover, Output, Capital, Standard Costs, Shadow Prices, etc. (Interestingly, it does include Tottenham Hotspur - one of the authors' favourite teams I understand!)

Solutions Manual Third Edition Financial Accounting in an Economic Context

Manufacturer: South - Western College Publishing
ProductGroup: Book
Binding: Paperback
ASIN: 0538855886

Product Description

This solutions manual is a teaching supplement of Financial Accounting in an Economic Context, 3rd Edition, by Jamie Pratt. Each text chapter (except Chapter 1) concludes with discussion questions, exercises, problems, and cases. This manual contains complete solutions to the exercises and problems and suggested answers to the cases. It was written to be used by students. That is, the solutions are self-explanatory, and answers to essay-type questions are geared toward a student's level of accounting knowledge. Further, care was taken to provide supporting calculations and/or explanations in those cases where the answer may not be obvious. Because Chapter 1 does not include exercises, problem, or cases, this manual begins with Chapter 2. EXERCISES: The exercises usually illustrate a specific concept in a relatively simple manner. The exercises provide an initial test of a student's understanding of an accounting concept or issue. PROBLEMS: The problems generally are more complex than the exercises. They are designed to introduce some of the complexities accountants face and, in some cases, to integrate several accounting concepts into a single problem. CASES: The cases are designed to provide real life examples of accounting issues, and often require students to exercise judgment in formulating an answer. The cases can be used as the basis for class descussion. OTHER RESOURCES: Suggested answers to the discussion questions are located in the Instructor's Manual to Accompany Financial Accounting. That manual also includes time and difficulty charts for the exercises, problems, and cases. Remember that the time estimates are averages and that on any given problem, a student may take longer than the indicated time because of mechanical error, misinterpretation of the information, or lack of understanding of the topic. A checklist of key figures for the exercises, problems, and cases (when feasible) is also included in the instructor's manual.." (from to the instructor)
