Customer Rating:
Summary: Must-buy for law students
Comment: This is a must-buy for law students taking a class in international tax. Or if you're a lawyer and want to learn the stuff on your own.
But I can see how a layman hoping to figure out how to fill out a tax return would think the book to be useless.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Extremely useful and informative
Comment: Covers all the important details of international tax law in a concise, easy to understand format. Highly recommended!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Best book ever written
Comment: This was the most thoroughly informative, entertaining, and magnificent piece of literature I have ever read on any subject. Richard Doernberg sheds light on some of the most difficult concepts in U.S. tax law. His clever insights and piercing intellectual observations will make you reconsider your thoughts on life, the universe, and everything. Doernberg is truly the best thing to happen to international taxation since the check the box regulations.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Wonderful overview of international tax
Comment: The International Tax Nutshell is a wonderful overview of international tax. As some comments have indicated, it is a tough area, but Doernberg does a great job of guiding people through the various twists and turns.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Not for laymen, indeed
Comment: Disregard reviews criticizing the technical nature of this book. I became a fond user of the Nutshell series when I was in law school; I don't think that these books were ever intended for use by the Average Joe. By its very nature, the subject matter is technical and can only be simplified so much. There is a reason why there is no such book as "International Taxation for Dummies" or "Brain Surgery for Dummies".
These books are great to use as a springboard for further research and study of the issues covered. I would recommend the book to students and practitioners of accounting, business, and taxation.
