Note:"This volume represents an attempt to describe and discuss the rift between accounting practitioners and academics. Although not new, this "schism" has received much publicity in recent years. The effects of the schism are considered from practical, philosophical, and educational perspectives, and the authors suggest that while problematic, the schism can be seen as a natural phenomenon promoting competition between opposing ideas. The work includes extensive references, a short index, and extensive appendixes which reproduce a number of documents relevant to the subject, such as the Bedford Report and the Accounting Education Change Commission report." -- Choice review
