Beskrivning
One of the prime purposes of accounting is to communicate and yet, to date, this fundamental aspect of the discipline has received relatively little attention. The Routledge Companion to Accounting Communication represents the first collection of contributions to focus on the power of communication in accounting.The chapters have a shared aim of addressing the misconception that accounting is a purely technical, number-based discipline by highlighting the use of narrative, visual and technological methods to communicate accounting information. The contents comprise a mixture of reflective overview, stinging critique, technological exposition, clinical analysis and practical advice on topical areas of interest such as:The miscommunication that preceded the global financial crisisThe failure of sustainability reportingThe development of XBRLHow to cut clutter With an international coterie of contributors, including a communication theorist, a Big Four practitioner and accounting academics, this volume provides an eclectic array of expert analysis and reflection. The contributors reveal how accounting communications represent, or misrepresent, the financial affairs of entities, thus presenting a state-of-the-art assessment on each of the main facets of this important topic. As such, this book will be of interest to a wide range of readers, including: postgraduate students in management and accounting; established researchers in the fields of both accounting and communications; and accounting practitioners.

Recensioner i media

'This latest Routledge Companion provides an invaluable, wide-ranging survey of an interdisciplinary field which is fundamental to understanding accounting in the past and the present. Unusually for a work of synthesis, the chapters also explore new terrains, inspire future research agendas and offer critical interpretations. The book will prove of considerable interest to accounting students, researchers, educators, practitioners and policy-makers alike.'Stephen Walker, Professor of Accounting, Cardiff University, UK
