Francois Benade, Senior Lecturer in Management Accounting, UNISA, South Africa Author InformationThe late Colin Drury was at Huddersfield University from 1970 until his retirement in 2004, when he was awarded the title of Emeritus Professor. For the last 35 years, Professor Colin Drury had been at the forefront of helping students learn the key concepts and processes in management and cost accounting through his bestselling textbooks, which have been widely recommended by the main professional accounting bodies for their examinations. He was an active researcher throughout his career and his research had been published in around 100 professional and academic journals. In recognition for his contribution to accounting education and research, Drury was given a lifetime achievement award by the British Accounting Association in 2009. Drury�s Flagship title Management and Cost Accounting was first published in 1985 and is now in its 12th edition. It established itself as one of the leading management accounting textbooks in EMEA. It is known, not just for its rigour and authority, but particularly for Drury�s down-to-earth style that reflected his background as a practising accountant before his involvement in academia.
