Accounts, Accounting and Accountability

This collection of specially commissioned essays has been assembled in memory of the late Professor Peter Bird of the University of Kent. It reflects his interests and the range of his contributions to accountancy literature. Peter Bird was particularly concerned to improve communications between academics and the rest of the profession, and the contributors, among whom are some of the most significant names in current accountancy teaching and research, have aimed their essays at a mixed audience of academics and practitioners. This book should be of interest to accountants in practice, accountancy teachers, and students of accountancy.
