About the Author

John Wyllie graduated from Leeds University in 1973 with a degree in history and philosophy. This proved to be the ideal preparation for life as an accountant! His career started in a small accountant`s office in the 1970s and spans a period which has seen a revolution in technology and the global economy with the demise of so much manufacturing activity and the rise of knowledge-based service industries. A former chartered management accountant, with over 35 years experience in finance, he has worked in private practice and in industry, with leading "blue-chip" companies. During the last decade, he has spent a number of years acting as an accountancy consultant to several UK government departments and, more recently, a tutor teaching a range of accountancy subjects.
