Thank you!
Thanks. Was specifically looking for accounting books or online courses, ie not valuation / investment philosophy ones. Anyone please?
Valuation and accounting go hand in hand, so you can't really separate them into mutually exclusive buckets. For example, McKinsey's "Valuation" is one of the best accounting books out there in my opinion. However, if you're looking for just straight accounting knowledge, I recommend the CFA Financial Statement Analysis books (level I for foundational knowledge and level II for more advanced concepts).
CeilingAvenue gave you exactly what you asked for - he couldn't have recommended any better books. If you're looking for something more accounting-based, go read an accounting textbook. All the books he listed will go in depth into analysis of a company's financial statements.
