International Taxation June 13, 2000 21 out of 22 found this review helpful
Doernberg provides a helpful overview of the important topics most relevant in International Taxation. This summary will be a useful guide for students, practitioners and anyone else interested in the U.S. tax issues relevant in international business. While short by design, this book contains a surprising amount of information.
Not for laymen, indeed February 20, 2007 KublaiKhan (Rockford IL, USA) 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
Disregard reviews criticizing the technical nature of this book. I became a fond user of the Nutshell series when I was in law school; I don't think that these books were ever intended for use by the Average Joe. By its very nature, the subject matter is technical and can only be simplified so much. There is a reason why there is no such book as "International Taxation for Dummies" or "Brain Surgery for Dummies". These books are great to use as a springboard for further research and study of the issues covered. I would recommend the book to students and practitioners of accounting, business, and taxation.
I'm not employed by a tax lawyer February 28, 2006 Deborah Stevens (Longmont, CO USA) 2 out of 10 found this review helpful
This would probably be a great book for a law student, but not for a lay person. I consider myself to be fairly intelligent, but I had a bit of difficulty wading through this to find the little bit of info that I needed. I'm sure it's also a great book for someone with a tax background.
Wonderful overview of international tax June 21, 2007 Ed Cloaninger 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
The International Tax Nutshell is a wonderful overview of international tax. As some comments have indicated, it is a tough area, but Doernberg does a great job of guiding people through the various twists and turns.

unfortunately, at the time of writing, 9 August 2005, I still have not received the item ordered on 7 July 2005. Therefore, I am not able to give any views on the book.
