Description: "There is a great deal of confusion regarding the factors that led to Enron's collapse. This book addresses this problem by providing an explanation of the accounting and finance problems associated with the collapse. The Skilling-Lay trial, as it is related to accounting or finance issues, is critically described as well. Through its well-balanced take on events surrounding the trial, the book therefore enables readers to analyze the validity of the arguments offered by the U.S. attorneys."--Jacket.
