Prefect for Principles of Auditing 
I am just starting to use the text but it is an extremely easy read while being quite informative.
The end-of-chapter summary along a varied selection of questions from review type multiple choice to the thought provoking variety ensures that the material gets to sink in.
I would recommend this text to anyone who is starting to study Auditing for the first time.

Absolutely terrible book 
This is easily the most long winded and rambling book I've ever read. It is incredibly verbose and full of nothing but abstractions and psychobabble. This book has very little practical information for would-be auditors.

Plenty of Room for Improvement 
I am using this book for a correspondence audit course. I gave it two stars because this book deserves a negative review.
As stated by the other reviewer, this book rambles a lot. It reminds me of people in school and at work that think something must be of a certain length in order to be of good quality. Cutting out the BS and getting to the point would be more helpful.
Also, aside from rambling, the questions at the end of the unit are often poorly worded and confusing.
This book is poorly... more info

Coma Inducing
My biggest complaint with this textbook is that it lacks consistency in terms of flow; essentially, there are parts of this book that provide useful information and there are parts that will go on and on about nothing. Unfortunately the latter makes up a larger part of the textbook. There simply has to be a better book on auditing in todays environment.
