Federal Income Taxation, 13th

by Marvin Chirelstein, Lawrence Zelenak

This highly-acclaimed text explains the conceptual basis of federal income taxation. It is designed to help students quickly pull together the entire subject for end-of-semester review and provide perspective about where a topic fits within the federal income tax scheme. While focusing on the present income tax, the text provides an explanation of the often-discussed consumption tax and contrasts the two taxes in a note at the end of the volume. The new edition reflects legislative, judicial, and administrative developments since the twelfth edition (including the 2012 tax rate increases and the Supreme Court’s Windsor decision), and increases the number of end-of-chapter problems by almost 60%.

Great book for those wanting to dive into the world of taxation. Very easy to read with great examples that illustrate why the tax laws are the way they are.
