We started this project in 1991 and have been working steadily on it and sharing our ideas at workshops ever since. For over ten years our family, friends, students, and colleagues have been asking us “When will it be finished?” Our answer has always been the same and remains the same: next year.
Clearly, we are not good at forecasting and any promises we might make to you, or ourselves for that matter, regarding a timeline for completion would not be credible. This was never more evident than this past summer when we expected to complete ten chapters and ended up with one after countless hours of focused effort. Still, we had a very productive summer in terms of progressing towards our vision. The beta version of the balance sheet chapter is the culmination of twenty years of work and it is the first output that fully captures our vision to create a flexible resource that can meet the diverse needs for colleges, corporate training courses, and self learners.
We have completed a good deal of content for the remaining chapters that we’ve used in our own classes and have learned a great deal about work-flow that we can leverage going forward. We will post additional chapters as we complete them and invite you to use them as supplements in the meantime. With any luck, well actually with lots of luck, we will complete enough chapters for a complete course during the next year.
