International Taxation or Motivating at Work

International Taxation

Author: Charles I Kingson

Created for today's courses, this new book is the only one to include the most recent tax laws and teach the subject the way it is actually practiced today. By offering both the "insider" and "outsider" perspectives, the authors greatly reduce the intimidation factor that characterizes this area of study. Both comprehensible and comprehensive, INTERNATIONAL TAXATION does an excellent job of conveying an understanding of the underlying structure of international tax.

Special Features:

This engaging new casebook helps students do what practitioners do — find patterns, identlify conflicts, make characterizations, and allocate tax attributes.

The book focuses on core topics and help students make important connections between theory and practice.

The material builds in complexity, giving instructors great flexibility in structuring their course.

The book's flexibility also enables you to choose the scope and depth of coverage.

Upon adopting Kingson and Blum's INTERNATIONAL TAXATION, you can receive free supplementary materials that include the OECD Treaty, as well as relevant codes and regulations keyed to the casebook.

The accompanying Teacher's Manual — also available on disk — provides answers to all the problems, as well as suggestions on choosing material when time is tight.

Helpful pedagogical aids include: excellent problems; numerical examples; notes; charts and exhibits, as well as letters from prominent firms to the government; and legislative history.
