"Overall, I am pleased with the approach and balance of the Rittenberg text and plan to continue using it." "These themes are comprehensive of the issues facing auditing today, and they are the right themes to include in this textbook." "The textbook appears to be written by an auditing scholar with relevant field auditing experience as opposed to many auditing textbooks which are written by scholars who write what they "think" is occurring in the field." "I like the five themes of the Sixth edition' they reflect some of the main reasons why I adopted the text initially and continue to use it. I like the overriding theme of business risk approach, the emphasis on the technological environment. It also is critically important, especially in today's rapidly changing environment, to stay current with the regulatory and legal environment of the audit. The movement toward the Integrated Audit also fits in well with the other themes."
