RICHARD BROOKS | «Bean Counters: The Triumph of the Accountants and How They Broke Capitalism»




«The world's 'Big Four' accountancy firms - PwC, Deloitte, Ernst & Young, and KPMG - have become a gilded elite. Up in the high six figures, an average partner salary rivals that of a Premier League footballer. But how has the seemingly humdrum profession of accountancy got to this level?
