This book was assigned reading in a class I took. I realize it's a dry subject, but I refuse to believe it couldn't have been written better. Reading this book was a chore I had to force myself to do.
If you are taking a class that uses this text book run away as fast as you can. This is the most vile, difficult, horrid text book. I was ready to poke my eyes out by page 10. The authors ramble with ridiculously long sentences. They get lost in examples and exceptions about everything while they define nothing. The sub-chapter titles and paragraph subjects tell you nothing of the information to follow. There is no easy way to look up information. Nothing is concise or direct. The explanations (and/or definitions) you do receive are often stated differently every time, causing confusion to the actual facts. Perhaps this works for some people. Unfortunately, this is a required class for my degree. I will be forced to try to find another book that conveys the same information so that I can comprehend the information and pass the class. Run, I say! Run for your life and save your sanity!
As required reading for the University of Richmond Public Budgeting and Finance course, Spring 2006, this small book is one that I will probably use for reference material even after the class.The cover and binding is a classy,dark hunter green, the printing easy to read, and the subject matter is one everyone who pay taxes should read at least once.
This is a pretty dense read, but has a lot of useful information. I wouldn't read this for pleasure -- as a textbook, it's a little more dense and dry than I'd prefer. However, it's relatively easy to read and has a ton of information. Supplement with the NASBO manual.
budgeting is a bore and this book does not help, I mean it serves its purpose and provides some decent information, it is just a bit lengthy and everything is kind of crammed together.
quite a misture of comprehensive reading but also sometime arid, but a good book for budgeting and fierly easy to understand and obtain valuable info in reards to the topic at hand..budgeting....conclusion...it is a good book for budgeting even though it is a difficult topic.
Dry reading that isn't written as a primer in understanding, but as a text with the assumption that you have a knowledge of public budgeting and the associated argot.
