""I have nothing but great things to say about The Craft of Auditing. Dr. Maksymov masterfully creates a new style of auditing book that is understandable, educational, and, dare I say, fun for students to read. Practically, the book encompasses the concepts that they really need to know before entering a career in audit."" Dr. Kim Westermann, CPA, Professor of Accounting, Orfalea College of Business, California Polytechnic State University ""The Craft of Auditing: The Stuff You Actually Need to Learn Before Graduating by Eldar Maksymov is an excellent textbook and something that students will enjoy reading and learning from. It gets things right that many other texts do not such as the difference between the information the auditor receives from a lawyer on litigation versus unasserted claims. To me, it has the flavor of Horngren's initial texts on cost accounting. The student feels they are being let it on the secrets of understanding auditing and embarking on a successful career as a new auditor. My short take is that Eldar's auditing text is simply great! I look forward to using it in my courses, and I believe it will make the study of auditing interesting for my students."" Douglas R. Carmichael, Ph.D., CPA, CFE, Claire and Eli Mason Professor of Accountancy, Baruch College ""It's not just a textbook, it's a conversation with a mentor."" Melissa Beran Samuelson, Ph.D., Arizona State University, W.P. Carey School of Business
