Financial Accounting and Equity Markets (Routledge Historical Perspectives in Accounting)

Philip Brown is one of the most admired and respected accounting academics alive today. He was a pioneer in capital markets research in accounting, and his 1968 article, co-authored with Ray Ball, "An Empirical Evaluation of Accounting Income Numbers," arguably had a greater impact on the course of accounting research, directly and indirectly, than any other article during the second half of the twentieth century. Since that time, his innovative research has focused on issues that bridge accounting and finance, including the relationships between net profit reports and the stock market, the long-run performance of acquiring firms, statutory sanctions and voluntary corporate disclosure, and the politics and future of national accounting standards to name a few. This volume brings together the greatest hits of Brown’s career, including several articles that were published in out-of-the-way places, for easier use by students and researchers in the field. With a foreword written by Stephen A. Zeff, and an introduction that discusses the evolution of Brown’s research interests and explains the context for each of the essays included in the volume, this book offers the reader a unique look inside this remarkable 50-year career.

When Dara embarks on a perilous mission to take back the healing Jyotisha armband that was wrested from her grasp, she doesn't realize the enormity of the dual threats she must face. Santee, head of a shadowy group, is about to unleash a deadly virus onto a fragile, damaged world. And Dara's cousin, Mercy-who has the power to wound instead of heal-wants Dara dead. When her wrist is shattered in a fall, Dara is airlifted to a secret government medical facility, and a meteorite fragment of element 120--X-main component of the Jyotisha--is implanted in her wrist bone, enabling her to heal others with her hand. The medical facility comes under assault, and Dara and her father escape to the California desert with the help of an enigmatic Jamaican martial arts expert named Seb. Still bearing emotional wounds from her mother's death, Dara trains for the gathering storm.
