This Is A New Release Of The Original 1893 Edition.
For courses in Accounting Fraud, Forensic Accounting, Financial
Statement Fraud, Financial Statement Analysis, Ethics for
Accountants, and Auditing. A case-study approach that enables
students to identify key signs of fraud in financial statements
Over the last two decades, financial statement fraud has become an
increasingly serious issue, resulting in the collapse of ostensibly
solid companies and a subsequent lack of confidence in financial
markets. Detecting Accounting Fraud: Analysis and Ethics was
created in response to the challenges facing accountants in this
era. The text provides students a thorough overview of the most
frequently used methods of overstating earnings and assets or
understating debt in financial statements. It also provides
detailed coverage of the main signals indicating possible
fictitious reporting in financial statements to help students learn
what to look for. And because breakdowns in ethics underlie
accounting fraud, the text presents three major theories of ethics,
plus applicable ethical decision-making models as well as
opportunities for students to apply ethical models to real-world
situations. This text provides a better teaching and learning
experience-for you and your students. It will help you to: *
Explain accounting fraud through detailed case studies: The text's
real-world case study approach helps students understand the
methods used to perpetrate financial statement fraud today. * Focus
student attention on ethics: Ethics coverage integrated throughout
the text helps students understand this topic's importance
vis-a-vis accounting fraud. * Foster thorough understanding via
student-focused features: An engaging, captivating writing style
and diverse end-of-chapter materials motivate and assist students.'

1893. With an introduction by William J. Locke. Anatole France
(pseudonym for Jacques Anatole Francois Thibault), was a writer,
critic, and one of the major figures of French literature in the
late 19th and early 20th centuries. He was awarded the Nobel Prize
for Literature in 1921. At the Sign of the Reine Pedauque is his
most celebrated novel; a vast tableau of life in 18th century
France. The central figure of the novel, the Abbe Coignard, a
complex, ironical and lovable character, reappears in Les Opinions
de Jerome Coignard and The Well of Saint Claire.
1893. With an introduction by William J. Locke. Anatole France
(pseudonym for Jacques Anatole Francois Thibault), was a writer,
critic, and one of the major figures of French literature in the
late 19th and early 20th centuries. He was awarded the Nobel Prize
for Literature in 1921. At the Sign of the Reine Pedauque is his
most celebrated novel; a vast tableau of life in 18th century
France. The central figure of the novel, the Abbe Coignard, a
complex, ironical and lovable character, reappears in Les Opinions
de Jerome Coignard and The Well of Saint Claire.
This double volume contains two of the most representative novels
of Anatole France. At the Sign of the Reine Pedauque, with its
famous figure, the Abbe Jerome Coignard - priest, scholar, and
vagabond - marked the full maturity of its author, and has always
had the enthusiastic appreciation of British critics and readers.
The Revolt of the Angels, written twenty years later, is France's
last major work, a realistic fantasy, with ideas which are apposite
to-day, and the book which the author regarded as his best. The two
novels make an excellent pair, each in its own way typical of
France's tradition-steeped yet sceptical philosophy, and of that
'alternating communion and conflict of learning and licentiousness,
of reason and romanticism, of the mundane and the divine.' Anatole
France's works live on, and indeed in his class he is at the top.
The Revolt of the Angels is the book that a UFO writer used to
demonstrate that his particular brand of Ancient Astronauts were
really Alien Creatures from a parallel dimension. Perhaps -- France
herein makes similar points -- with tongue firmly in cheek, of
course. You'll just to decide for yourself. France won the Nobel
Prize for literature back in the days when it meant something. This
farce is a treat whether or not the conspiracy is farce.
