Customer Reviews

An excellent, up-to-date textbook.

This book is much improved over the old Howard/Crompton or Deppe texts. It is very apparent to me that the author has thoroughly researched his topic area. His emphasis on active financing rather than just budgeting is something which very much attracted my immediate attention. A few years ago, I took an independent study course on partnerships from Dr. Wilbur LaPage. Much of what Dr. LaPage was teaching about can be found in John Crompton's new book.George Tabbert, Ph.D. Candidate & TA in Budgeting & Revenue Resouces, NRRT, Colorado State University
