Great intro to accounting

I liked reading this book for my accounting 101 class. The text is clear, well organized and well written. The typography makes liberal use of color, which makes reading _much_ easier when compared to a monochrome textbook. There are copious examples, illustrations and exercises. The book comes with a workbook (purchased separately) which contains template pages to write in your answers (trust me, you will need it). All chapters are grounded in current reality -- the authors make a point of tying the concepts to real-life situations.On the cons, the 2002 edition deals with 2000 data -- their production process needs to be speeded up. I think that a thorough review of this text will give the reader an excellent start in basic accounting.
