Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Crumbley, a certified public accountant and professor at Texas A&M, provides a concise, easy-to-read, and well-written no-nonsense guide to the operations of the IRS and what the taxpayer can do when notified that all or part of his or her tax return for a specific period of time is going to be audited. In lay terminology he discusses penalties, rights of the taxpayer, appeals, and various aspects of the tax law with respect to audits. He also gives considerable attention to how to behave at an audit. A very helpful glossary is included. Tax lawyer Daily provides similar information and, like Crumbley, sticks to the facts. But he wants the reader to come out a winner and he offers advice in a light, readable tone with cartoon-like illustrations as well as a glossary, some 800 numbers, and a means to contact him personally. While Keys to Surviving a Tax Audit is a good choice because of its price, Daily's book along with Holmes Crouch's Winning Your Audit ( LJ 12/90) can help ease a reader's fears.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Good review of options and futures trading,
By Steven Gould (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Keys to Investing in Options and Futures (2nd ed) (Barron's Business Keys) (Paperback)
Good review of options and futures trading. Each section is just 2-3 (short) pages, usually with an example or two, which makes the book very easy to pick up and read a little at a time. Since each section is so short, it also serves as a useful quick reference.For more detailed reading on options/futures trading, I'd suggest finding another book. Use this mainly for quick reference, or as a refresher.

Good Review,

This review is from: Keys to Investing in Options and Futures (Barron's Business Keys) (Paperback)
short, concise, and to the point. I'm not a 5 star person so I may be a bit harsh
