Mark Osborne doesn't like auditors. In fact, after reading this book, one gets the feeling he despises them.

This book fits the bill for me!!. And it is enjoyable I have a number of other handbook style books - one that cost nearly six times more but was really a collection of articles written by a dozen different people (some with obviously conflicting views) bound under the same cover.
