Summaries and Customer Reviews are supplied by Amazon.com One law school professor called the First Edition the best book I have ever used. The new Second Edition of this popular law school text continues its innovative building block format, leading students from the basic elements of the federal income tax system to increasingly complex details such as timing principles, tax avoidance limitations, and characterization issues. The new edition contains more of the helpful self assessment questions that allow students to measure their own comprehension. Over 90 detailed problems for class discussion require readers to research the Code and Regulations and apply complex rules to basic fact patterns. Excellent Casebook on a Complex Area | Customer Rating: | Donaldson has made a mundane and complex topic (tax law) accessible and entertaining. The book is organized in an easy-to-follow format and has chosen interesting cases to illustrate core concepts.
The book also does an excellent job of incorporating problems that illustrate key concepts and test your knowledge. Each chapter comes with "Self Assessment Questions" that illustrate discrete concepts, with accompanying answers so that you can check yourself. Additionally, more complex questions are presented throughout the book. These questions test big-picture knowledge and do not have accompanying answers. My professor used these for class discussions and review. The format of incorporating discrete and complex problems throughout the book helped me build my knowledge one step at a time.
The book publisher helpfully publishes updates on a website, allowing the textbook to stay current with changing tax laws.
Overall, I highly recommend this book for introductory tax classes. Even if this is not the book your professor assigns, it is better than most study guides. This book will help you learn the income tax essentials. | So so | Customer Rating: | | book was what I wanted; but too much notes, underlining, and labels on it. I wouldn't categorize it as "Good"! |
