5.0 out of 5 stars A Practitioner's Perspective, October 14, 2008

By	S. Curcuru (Farmington Hills, MI, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought an earlier edition while I was in law school. This book is very well organized and covers both the conceptual and practical perspectives of taxation extraordinarily well. The questions at the end of each section help to solidify your understanding of the concepts by varying the fact scenarios from question to question.

I've been in tax practice for ten years, and I purchase each updated edition for a review of the conceptual aspects of taxation and for a quick review of the tax treatment of transactions I haven't handled very often in practice.

5.0 out of 5 stars You won't be TAXED if you use this, December 13, 2008

By	JD2010/2011 - See all my reviews

I thought Taxes would be daunting (it still is) but this E&E was superb. I literally did not buy the textbook (saved 140 bucks) read E&E before classes and was ready while some of my peers were dazed! When I had the misfortune of not preparing for class, I found the examples and explanations perfectly clear and was not far behind the pack. Mind you Taxes is not your typically law school course and requires a substantial amount of simple and mechanical number crunching. This E&E has many such examples. While I'm at it, I have to recommend EXAM PRO Federal Income Tax for Multiple Choice Exams ISBN 978-0-314-18069-8 (absolutely perfect examples and explanations again - 5 Stars).

For the record, I think that the E&E series is lacking overall, except for CivPro, Taxes, and maybe Torts (Glannon is my Professor). I found E&E Contracts and Property sub-par (2 stars).
