Product Description
This book is intended to serve as an introduction to the U.S. law of international taxation. It is a primer aimed at law students, foreign lawyers or scholars, U.S. lawyers seeking an introduction to the area or a refresher, and others who might benefit from an overview of the U.S. tax laws governing international trade and investment. The book attempts to summarize the law, offering some attention to the purposes of the various legal rules. However, it is beyond the scope of the book to offer a critical evaluation of the provisions summarized. Frequent references are made to both the Code and the Regulations. There are some citations to caselaw and administrative rulings where they help illustrate the subject matter. However, the book is not a treatise, and so there is no attempt to treat comprehensively the caselaw and rulings.

 Must-buy for law students January 29, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a must-buy for law students taking a class in international tax. Or if you're a lawyer and want to learn the stuff on your own.
But I can see how a layman hoping to figure out how to fill out a tax return would think the book to be useless.
Extremely useful and informative December 17, 2007

Best book ever written September 14, 2007

This was the most thoroughly informative, entertaining, and magnificent piece of literature I have ever read on any subject. Richard Doernberg sheds light on some of the most difficult concepts in U.S. tax law. His clever insights and piercing intellectual observations will make you reconsider your thoughts on life, the universe, and everything. Doernberg is truly the best thing to happen to international taxation since the check the box regulations.
Wonderful overview of international tax June 21, 2007

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.
Not for laymen, indeed February 20, 2007

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.
