The Essential Handbook of Internal Auditing is a condensed version of the second edition of the highly successful Internal Auditing Handbook. It shows the reader how to understand the audit context and how this context fits into the wider corporate agenda. The new context is set firmly within the corporate governance, risk management and internal control arena. In addition to the author\'s own views of the auditor\'s role, the reader is provided with a range of professional standards and guidance that provides a valuable source of various key issues and developments.K H Spencer Pickett has also developed many helpful models and checklists that provide a short cut to understanding the work and coverage of internal auditing. As auditors, we are trained to investigate beyond appearances to determine the underlying facts--in other words, to look beneath the surface. From the Enron and WorldCom scandals of the early 2000s to the financial crisis of 2007-2008 to present-day issues and challenges related to significant estimation uncertainty, understanding the auditor\'s responsibility related to fraud, maintaining a clear perspective, probing for details, and understanding the big picture are indispensable to effective auditing. With the availability of greater levels of qualitative and quantitative information (big data), the need for technical skills and challenges facing today\'s auditor is greater than ever. The author team of Louwers, Blay, Sinason, Strawser, and Thibodeau has dedicated years of experience in the auditing field to this new edition of Auditing & Assurance Services, supplying the necessary investigative tools for future auditors. This text offers a structured approach to principles of auditing using International Standards on Auditing as its basis. Written by a team of influential professional auditors with a wealth of teaching experience this book provides a real world perspective on current auditing practices with coverage of cutting edge developments and techniques. As we begin the new year, this title is currently the most up-to-date auditing textbook on the market, covering all of the latest pronouncements through the end of 2011. The book\'s unique organization presents the auditing process in twelve concise chapters, with eight flexible, independent modules designed to be integrated into the course entirely at the instructor\'s discretion. Perhaps most importantly, this title is the only book on the market to fully integrate the Codification of the New Clarity Standards (including new section) issued by the Auditing Standards Board. As these standards will be effective for year-end audits after December 15, 2012, they will be covered on the CPA exam beginning in July 2013, when many current students will be taking the CPA exam after completing 150 hours of coursework.In addition, the Louwers book also brings the real world into the classroom through the addition of extensive Auditing Insights involving real issues facing today\'s professionals as well as the updated Apollo Shoes Casebook, the only stand-alone fraud audit case on the market (available on the book\'s website, www.mhhe.com/louwers5e).Throughout the revised text, the Louwers author team has updated each chapter to include the latest pronouncements, technology and case material for your auditing classes: This edition has fully integrated the eight new standards adopted by the PCAOB. And, most importantly, the risk assessment chapter was restructured to incorporate the exacting risk assessment process as outlined in the new PCAOB risk standards. The book has fully integrated the latest updates from the International Standards of Auditing (ISAs) and the Auditing Standards Board (ASB). Each chapter now begins with a list of the AU/ISA Sections that are covered from the Codification of Statements on Auditing Standards published by the AICPA and the list of PCAOB Auditing Standards covered in that chapter. This edition incorporates the major changes to the structure and the content of the auditing section of the CPA examination for 2011 and has been designed to provide multiple opportunities for students to practice questions that they will encounter on the CPA exam. Each chapter has an abundance of multiple choice questions. In addition, to provide experience with the task-based exam approach, Kaplan CPA Simulations are included in the text problem material and are also accessible at www.mhhe.com/louwers5e. These multiple choice questions and simulations allow the student to gain skills and pick up additional knowledge for success on the CPA Examination.

Handbook of Model Rocketry Generations of amateur astronomers have called it simply Norton\'s: the most famous star atlas in the world. Now in a beautifully redesigned, two-color landmark 20th edition, this combination star atlas and reference guide has no match in the field.First published in 1910, prompted by the appearance of Halley\'s Comet, Norton\'s owes much of its legendary success to its unique maps, arranged in slices or gores, each covering approximately one-fifth of the sky. Accompanying and complimenting the charts is a succinct descriptive and tabulated accounting of astronomical knowledge and data.In this new edition the text and tables have been revised and updated to account for the new and exciting developments in astronomy. The star maps themselves were plotted using advanced computer techniques, yielding outstanding accuracy and legibility. Every celestial object visible to the naked eye is included--stars to magnitude 6, star clusters, and galaxies, as well as other celestial objects. Presented with an authority that has stood for generations, observation hints, technical explanations, and pointers to specialized information sources, make this the only essential guide to the night sky.
