"The underlying motivation for writing this book is a belief that all students of accounting, whether at the graduate or postgraduate level, and indeed all practitioners of accounting, should have a rich understanding of the implications that flow from the practice of accounting. Accounting practice can be linked to various economic, social, and environmental impacts that reverberate throughout society, and students and practitioners of accounting need to understand this. In understanding this, they need knowledge of different theories. This book has therefore been written to provide readers with a balanced discussion of different theories of accounting." -- Book preface
