Editorial Reviews
Review
“After 70 pages of greetings and closing addresses, the meat of these proceedings held in Kyoto in 1987 is in eight sections: Accounting Education (AE) in Various Environmental Contexts; AE in Different Socioeconomic Environments; New Theory and Technology for AE; Teaching International Accounting; Functions of Accounting in Different Social, Economic and Legal Environments; The Role of AE and Research in Industrial Development and High-Tech Environments; Recent Developments in International Standards and Disclosure Requirements; Selected Topics on International Accounting. Although some of the contributors are distinguished, as might be expected in a set of conference proceedings like this, the standard of the papers is very mixed. The main strength is in the geographical diversity, with papers from China, Nepal, Kuwait, the Caribbean, as well as Japan, Europe, Australasia and the US. Although the Conference Title is Accounting Education, many of the papers are of more general interest. A useful tome for the library, if only for a bibliographic source on the richness of world-wide accounting.”–
