What Others Have Said

"In the second edition of Financial Statement Analysis and Business Valuation for the Practical Lawyer, Bob Dickie has done a masterful job of presenting complex subjects in a clear and concise manner. This edition has been updated to reflect new developments in the caselaw and statutes and new pronouncements by FASB and the SEC. Every young lawyer entering business law should read this book, and it will be a handy reference for more seasoned lawyers."

"Robert Dickie's book is both a terrific primer on financial statement and a first-rate discussion of real-world application of the accounting rules. He has written the book in a conversational style with many down-to-earth examples and a lot of practical advice. He does a great job with his well-thought-out case studies, which are based on real-world problems. I highly recommend this book for its fine and comprehensive discussion of accounting rules both for beginners and those with a lot of experience in working with financial statements."
