Book Description
Adoption and implementation of Part One of the Russian Tax Code constitutes a significant step forward in the direction of reforming Russian tax legislation in the interests of a transition to a market economy. It is considered as the `General Part' of the Tax Code, with the `Special Part' yet to come. This expert translation by W.E. Butler contains amendments to the Tax Code current to 1 September 1999. In comparison with the chaotic body of legislation which this part of the Tax Code replaces, it is far more conceptual in character, subjecting the Russian Law of Taxation for the first time to the general principles and practices of the codification evident in the other principal branches of Russian law. The terminology of the Tax Code is also brought closer to the mainstream of Russian legal concepts. A glossary prepared on the basis of the Tax Code appears at the end of the volume.
Book Description
The first edition of Porter/Norton was the most successful new entry into the financial accounting market in twenty years. This third edition holds true to the original vision of teaching the subject from both the preparer and user perspective, but with a revision focused on greater accessibility to the variety of students taught. Two annual reports (Gateway and Ben JerryÆs) and an annual update program with price stability guarantee highlight the third edition package.
Customer Reviews:
Get the new edition, not the 9th edition.......2002-09-18
I am the co-author of this book. the 10th edition is now out. If you are a student, you'll want that. If you're trying to learn on your own, you'll find this 9th edition adequate and much cheaper. good luck. roman
Great for graduate study.......2002-08-22
Many people get this book wrong. This is a book for graduate students, not for undergraduates. It introduces the concepts of financial accounting in a condensed way, which does require more time and patient to understand it, like the way we study in MBA program. Since this book assumes its reader as future statement readers, it introduces finanical statements, including balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement,in the first few chapters to let student understand the linkage among them. It is usually very difficult to understand for those without background, though. Plus, given the fact that this book is required by most of top MBA programs, like Chicago, Columbia, and NYU, I'd like to say that accounting professors have told us the quality of this book. For those who have a hard time on this, I would also recommend its accompanied study guide and solution manuals (used one available on amazon website ISBN 0030269695& ASIN: 0030182697; make sure get the right edition!!). After all, this is a good book, but requires more practices. Good luck.
A Good Introductory Text.......2001-12-30
I'd never had any accounting courses before. This textbook was required for my financial accounting course in an MBA program. The book does a good job of logically explaining all the important topics. Unfortunately, it takes a Herculean effort to sit down and study the material due to the dry subject matter.
The authors did a good job of using examples from real firms, which, I think, makes it more interesting. I've decided to keep this book after the course for a reference.
Accounting for dummies (ahem, I mean Lawyers).......2001-10-16
I am a 2nd year law student in the top 10% of my class at a first tier law school (meaning, I'm capable of reading and comprehending dense material). I took an accounting class thinking it would be helpful knowledge in the practice of law. My professor - fantastic. This text book - awful. The only reason I was able to (hopefully) get a good grade (the exam was last week) was that the professor was so good at explaining the concepts he felt were important. The book was confusing and overly verbose (coming from a wordsmith & soon to be lawyer, that statement should be given much weight!!) There were many exercises, but truth be told it was the professor's explanations that allowed me to do the exercises, NOT the book's.
You're going to get confuse!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2001-06-15
Firstly,I really want to rate this book zero star or minus star.I've bought this book because I used it in my MBA course .This book made me hate Accounting too.I strongly agree with rewiewer " this book made me hate accounting" .After I've read this book for many times I found it very wordy I can summarise the concept in one line whereas the books try to explain too much (2-3 pages)and also irrelavant.Eventhough the authur uses a lot of explanations, but can not be understood.IT is very vital to you to keep your money for the movie, put in the bank ,or doing whatever except buying this book.Anyway this book has a lot of exercises( Not so extremely bad)
Book Description
The market leader, Brigham/Houston continues to grow in reputation as the most effective approach for student learning in the first undergraduate corporate finance course. It is also updated to reflect the latest in theory, research, real-world examples, and the use of technology. The seamless, integrated ancillary package - done by the authors - is a hallmark of this package that makes course preparation easier for instructors and the subject more accessible for students.
Customer Reviews:
Excellent book.......2005-08-03
One of the best books in finance. It's very clear and couldn't be simpler. This book is an excellent choice for students who are beginning to learn finance. I highly recommend it. All the books of these authors are great.
Amazon review system mixing two books?.......2004-10-27
From what I can tell, the Amazon review system seems to be mixing at least three books:
1) Fundamental Financial Management, 8th Edition (Study Guide) Authors: Brigham and Houston.
ISBN:003024434X
2)Financial Accounting: An Introduction to Concepts, Methods and Authors: Stickney and Weil
ISBN:0030259622
3) Financial Accounting: The Impact on Decision Makers
Authors: Porter and Norton
ISBN:0030270995
Note that some of the reviews refer to Brigham as the author and some to Stickney and Weil.
This is a great book.......2003-06-16
I am currently enrolled in the CFA program (Level II candidate), and this book was used for my first corporate finance class. I must say that I was a bit turned off at first by the amount of colorful pictures and charts the Brigham book contained under the assumption that the more staid the book was, the less gimmicks it had and the better it was (like the Brealey-Myers book). However, I was repeatedly struck by how conscise Brighams' explanations and examples were. The book not only had exhaustive coverage, but it was very well-written. The vignettes at the beginning of each of the chapter really shows a good application of the chapter's lesson in the real world.
When ever I come across a question concerning finance, I almost always reach for the Brigham and Houston book first--it's that good.
Excellent Foundational Book.......2003-01-06
This book is taught in an excellent format for understanding the foundational and fundamental concepts of finance. The authors did an outstanding job with how this text is organized. It's also very simple in the explanation of concepts. Some finance books are written as if they were disssertations. This book brings the concepts down to the common man. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is looking to start graduate study in finance.
Where's my book?.......2002-09-14
It has been 29 days since I ordered my textbook, it has never arrived, and the seller will not respond to my e-mails...very poor service!
Customer Reviews:
Perfect condition.......2007-09-24

Author Geoffrey Moore makes the case that high-tech products require marketing strategies that differ from those in other industries. His chasm theory describes how high-tech products initially sell well, mainly to a technically literate customer base, but then hit a lull as marketing professionals try to cross the chasm to mainstream buyers. This pattern, says Moore, is unique to the high-tech industry.
Moore suggests remedies for the problem that can help businesses meet their long-term goals. He coaches marketing professionals on how to move slowly through the gulf, teaching them to create profiles and target specific segments of the population rather than trying to plow right into the mainstream. He cites examples of successful chasm crossings by such companies as Apple, Tandem, Oracle, and Sun, showing what they all had in common and exposing the different weaknesses in their strategies. Moore also assigns responsibility for success to programmers and developers by suggesting they design a "whole product model." Here, because integration tasks are daunting to the mainstream market, all the components of a technological product must be in one package. Moore also describes strategies for competing with rival companies and assessing the best distribution channels for penetrating the target market.
Written not just for marketing specialists but for all employees whose futures ride on the success of a technical product, Crossing the Chasm delivers crucial information in an engaging, readable tone.
Book Description
Here is the bestselling guide that created a new game plan for marketing in high-tech industries. Crossing the Chasm has become the bible for brining cutting-edge products to progressively larger markets. This revised and updated edition provides new insights into the realities of high-tech marketing, with special emphasis on the Internet. It's essential reading for anyone with a stake in the world's most exciting marketplace.
Customer Reviews:
Much ado about nothing.......2007-10-17
"Crossing the Chasm" is essentially about crossing a 'chasm' in the Technology Adoption Lifecycle.
There is, however, a major flaw with this idea. The Technology Adoption Lifecycle is a normal distribution and there are no chasms in normal distributions -- it is against the very definition of normal distributions.
Notwithstanding, I do think the author was before his time. If you graph the phenomenon he is talking about, it seems very similar to the Gartner Hype Cycle, and how to get you and your product through the Trough of Disillusionment.
Even Rogers in the fifth edition of his book, Diffusion of Innovations, denies the chasm suggestion.
If you are interested in technology adoption, give this one a miss.
Crossing the Chasm.......2007-10-04
You can tell that Geoffrey Moore had been overturned by the events of the 90s in that business communication just got a million times quicker. He has updated his contents but they are still lean towards that decade. None-the less they are timeless.
His content is beyond description it is so fantastic - informative and educational. I'm not recommending this book to any of my friends as I want to keep the sharp edge and knowledge to myself - sorry Geoff.
I have put my thinking and business in the fast lane after applying the ideas, which by the way, come with an little analogy that is so simple to follow (read the book to discover his trick) it is a must for every person who has a desire to be head and shoulders above the rest and win.
It beats marketing in the formal sense and offers down to earth ideas that really work. Thanks Geoffrey.

Bridge the Gap.......2007-08-29
Moving from early market success to mainstream market leadership is indeed a critical step for the hitech industry and this book helps you cross the chasm in confidence. It'd be a good thing to read this book in conjuction with EIGHTSTORM: 8-Step Brainstorming for Innovative Managers.
I haven't received the book.......2007-05-13
I can not give you any feedback. I haven't received the book yet.
A classic for the library of every technology marketing executive.......2007-04-18
This book remains a classic on the shelf of just about every client - most of whom have incorporated Geoffrey Moore's approach toward vertical sales and marketing into their overall business strategy. No coincidence that Moore also sits on the advisory boards of so many technology companies. ;)

Enchanting tales of ancient and mystical New Zeland maoris........1998-07-15
This is a collection of tales and myths remembered from her childhood. The maori legends are richly told and beautifully, and sometimes frightenly, illustrated. Te Kanawa remains faithfull to the vivid storytelling ancestry she represents. Many of the heroes and villains are as real as the shadow in the night...the shadow that refuses to go away. While nominally directed at children, adults can certainly enjoy the tales while appreciating the illustrative efforts of her co-author. The marriage of story and picture have rarely been put to better use to maintain for posterity a fragile heritage.

Book Description
An engaging memoir of growing up as a bootleggers daughter in the Bronx Here is an unusually evocative picture of family life during the Depression that transports the reader back through time with sensual imagery, dialogue, and minutely descriptive detail. Kelly Sonnenfeld's extraordinary recall has allowed her to re-create the lively scenes, pastimes, and characters of her own childhood, all centered on one block in the famous multi-ethnic Bronx neighborhood of Clason Point. From the Hooverville camps of squatters, homeless, and unemployed to an endless succession of boarders and stray dogs, a caravan of unforgettable faces and personalities travels through young Kelly's life. But most memorable of all are the looming figures of her own people: her regally proud maternal grandmother, who will buy her grandchildren fancy, starched dresses before putting food on their table; her anxious but granite-willed mother; her endearingly optimistic father, whose adventures in bootlegging bring the family close to peril on several occasions and eventually propel him from the pocket of an influential judge to prison on Rikers Island. For fans of Depression Era and gangster lore, for readers of any age who love losing themselves in another time and place, this memoir is a remarkable journey to one of the most colorful destinations in American history.
