Sommario/riassunto

The papers selected for this e-book should provide readers insight into various aspects of 'culture' that influence the accounting and auditing practices in Malaysia.  The authors of the papers are mainly Malaysian and their writing reflects their own national perspective and "personalities, national traditions and language" (Olson et al., 1998, p.26, cited in Poullaos, 1999) within various constraints.
