This book makes economics look simple!
I came across this book in my college dorm. Someone had taken it out for a term paper and I started leafing. The first page hit me with its direct, precise prose and its economics for people who don't know or care about this science. Palda's view is so simple. Take two producers. One is a very efficient low cost producer, the other is a great tax evader. Who will survive? The higher are taxes the greater the chances of the tax evader surviving. In the presence of tax evasion, the ability to evade "codes" for survival. So we could very well get a society of tax evaders who are clueless about producing ousting efficient producers. This book struck a note with me because I saw in it much more than a narrow economic treatise (the book is full of math but Palda somehow seems to know how to write English). It is a parable for our times. People with two characteristics that code for survival. One characteristic is innneficient the other is productive. But the inneficient ones may survive. I am still working out the implications of this amazing book. My view though is that Palda, because he is a professor in some boondock university (somewhere in Canada of all places) won't get much acclaim. Someone will nick his idea and claim it as his own, as Solow did when he did that little number on Swan. Well folks, read this book. It is written like a novel and has depth. ... Read more

On Target
Attorney, professor and commentator John O Fox has spent the better part of his professional life wrestling with the US Tax Code and knows whereof he speaks.In the spirit of pamphleteer Tom Paine, he talks common sense to his readers in 50-odd pages: 10 Tax Questions the Candidates Don't Want You to Ask is a provocative and lively adddition to Fox's growing body of work.Written for the interested layman,it is accessible and brisk and repays your investment handsomly.Would that the candidates would address tax issues as clearly as Fox does.

Real Questions Represent Real Interests
John Fox has it right!His "Ten Questions" represent the real interests of Americans -- from mortgages, home equity and property to health, childcare, social security and retirement. American have the right to expect better answers from elected officials about tax issues -- not just the usual boiler plate about tax cuts.This small volume frames the debate that should take place during this election year.

John Fox should write U.S. tax law
Clear, incisive and entertaining, this is a book about an ordinarily mind-numbing subject, taxes, that's actually a page-turner. Headings make the issues covered even easier to understand and I didn't know tax law could have a heart until I read this book.John O. Fox should be writing U.S. tax law, not just writing about it.Judith Pacht, Los Angeles ... Read more

Poor for a tax guide
I bought this book with the expectation that it would be able to answer or point me in the correct direction to answer questions related to corporate and individual taxation issues.There are very few books available in English which cover specifics of Japanese taxation.However, this book is more of an over view of the country, people, govenment, and taxation system.The market for this book is for those interested in starting or bringing a business to Japan, but all the information contained in this book is basically available for free from various internet sites (Japan Ministry of Finance, JETRO, etc).Read more
