I read the first 8 books of the 9. The last one, about accounting fraud, did not interest me for the moment. The effect of reading the 8 books is that it's very long, quite disorganized and very repetitive. The explanations are more or less clear. I had the sensation that these accountants are not that good on math. They seem to ignore that logarithms exist, and there were a couple formulas in the book that were wrong. For example, you can't compound daily just by dividing the annual interest rate by 365. Even I know that.
