內容試閱:
This book was first published in 1981. Until this present edition (the fourteenth),
the book was jointly written by Christopher Nobes and Robert Parker. However, Bob
Parker died shortly after the thirteenth edition was published in 2016. This edition is
dedicated to his memory; see obituaries in the 2016 volumes of Accounting and Business
Research and Accounting History. Bob’s last publication was a review of the development
of the contents of this book (and therefore of the world of international accounting)
over its thirteen editions from 1981 onwards. Readers can consult this in Volume 21
(Issue 4) of Accounting History.
This edition is a complete updating of the thirteenth edition. For example, since that
edition, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued a revised Conceptual
Framework in 2018; many Japanese companies have volunteered to adopt International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS); major new standards on lease accounting
have been issued by the IASB and in the United States (thereby creating new international
differences); and much relevant academic literature has been published.
