Sloppy,
By Declan Mantis (Austin, Texas) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: West Federal Taxation 2007: Individual Income Taxes (with RIA Checkpoint and Turbo Tax Premier CD-ROM) (Hardcover)
This book is required for most college-level courses in individual income taxes, but it is the sloppiest, most poorly written textbook I've ever used. Where are the copy editors? The publisher could save at least 100 pages just by tightening up the verbose writing style. The book contains good information, but you want to pull your hair out with all the useless references to topics covered in later chapters, passive sentence structure, and needless extra words. Here is an example: "The cost of listed property that does not pass the more-than-50 percent business usage test in the year the property is placed in service must be recovered using the straight-line method." Even the IRS publications are better written than this book.
