They believe most financial accountingtextbooks fail to demonstrate that accounting is an exciting field ofstudy and one that is important to future careers in business. Whenwriting this text, they considered career relevance as their guide whenselecting material, and the need to engage the student as their guideto style, pedagogy, and design. Libby/Libby/Short is the only financialaccounting text to successfully implement a real-world, single focuscompany approach in every chapter.
