Disclosure and risk management
This book is a great contribution to accounting. Reporting techniques have been revised due to the phenomenon of multinational companies and mergers. Accurate information is the basis of an open market function in terms ofstock trade. However I think that more emphasis should be given in the bookto the techniques that investigate the relation between future benefits andsegmental disclosure of information of conglomerate enterprises. ...

Useful introduction, but not for accounting professionals
As an IFRS auditor I use several IFRS publications (mainly from Big 4 audit firms). After browsing Wiley IAS 2004 at my local bookstore, I decided not to buy it because it is just not detailed enough in areas such as financial instruments, first-time adoption of IFRS and employee benefits. I prefer using more detailed, and more authoritative, IFRS publications such as International GAAP 2005 (available on amazon.co.uk).

American approach to IAS...
This book gives the full coverage of current IASs (at the end of 2002) and extensively discusses ongoing IASB projects which are expected to come in force in 2003.Read more
