First Published in 2004. The subject of this text is modern accountancy, which is to be considered from a sociological perspective. The logical starting point is to map out the chosen subject, modern accountancy, before saying something about the particular disciplinary perspective, sociology, from which it is to be viewed. The volume is split into two parts the sociology of accountancy and Sociology for accounting.
