Summary: "Comparative International Accounting is intended to be a comprehensive and coherent text on international financial reporting. It is primarily designed for undergraduate and postgraduate courses in comparative and international aspects of financial reporting. A proper understanding requires broad overviews (as in Part I), but these must be supported by detailed information on real countries and companies (as in Parts II to IV) and across-the-board comparisons of major topics (as in Parts V and VI). 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 thirteen 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"--
