Good for General Information, But Isn't Up-to-Date,
By William Perez "About.com Guide to Tax Planning" (San Francisco, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Tax Breaks and Deductions (Paperback)
Epstein has an ambitious goal: to produce a tax book that lives beyond April 15th as a handy guide to tax planning. Epstein is only partially successful. Information on various tax credits has been made less useful by numerous changes in the tax code. Her information on the tax aspects of divorce and running a business are much more useful and perennial.
Epstein is challenged by the same problems that plague all tax books: an ever-changing tax code. Nonetheless, the basics of tax planning aren't going to change anytime soon, and so Epstein's book is a good place to start for information on personal exemptions, standard and itemized deductions, tax credits for children and education, tax planning and retirement, taxes and divorce, and various business expenses. Excellent binding (hasn't fallen apart yet, despite constant reference), excellent page layout, and helpful index.
