The Society of Accountants in Edinburgh, 1854-1914 : A Study of Recruitment to a New Profession Paperback / softback

Part of the Routledge Library Editions: Accounting History series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book, first published in 1988, provides an analysis of recruitment to the new profession of nineteenth-century accountancy, and in doing so, gives an insight into the complex origins and behaviour of the emergent professional classes.

Unlike most studies, this is a study of all recruits, not only of those who succeeded in becoming qualified.

This permits an analysis of the whole process of recruitment, including the choice of accountancy as a career option and as a vehicle of social mobility.
