Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Landmark Cases in Revenue Law
Book SynopsisIn an important addition to the series, this book tells the story of 20 leading revenue law cases. It goes well beyond technical analysis to explore questions of philosophical depth, historical context and constitutional significance. The editors have assembled a stellar team of tax scholars, including historians as well as lawyers, practitioners as well as academics, to provide a wide range of fresh perspectives on familiar and unfamiliar decisions. The whole collection is prefaced by the editors’ extended introduction on the peculiar significance of case-law in revenue matters. This publication is a thought provoking and engaging showcase of tax writing that is accessible equally to specialists and non-specialists.Trade ReviewSnape and de Cogan frame a book containing classic cases in tax law as a means of understanding the deeply social and political nature of tax law, revenue law, the government, and the people’s interactions in what they hope will be a civilized society. Seeing issues from this more inclusive framing will allow legal scholars to contribute to that desired outcome without unnecessarily narrowing (and thus inevitably distorting) their focus. -- Neil H Buchanan * Jotwell *[A] full appreciation of the immense effort put in by each of the contributors gradually reveals itself after reading each of the contributions. The book is extensively researched and indexed... This book offers much more than an analysis of leading revenue law cases in the UK... This reviewer thoroughly endorses this book as essential reading to anyone interested in the historical development of the UK’s revenue law through the lens of the common law. Furthermore, it is recommended to anyone with an interest in revenue law, especially where the common law operates. It is not a book for reading in a single session; its full impact on one’s thinking is only achievable if a reader takes time to reflect upon the implications and insights provided by each of the chapters. This book should be part of the collections of tax practitioners, academics, officials, the judiciary and students with a keen interest in the law, especially those working with, or having an interest in, revenue law. -- Adrian Sawyer, Professor of Taxation, UC Business School, University of Canterbury, New Zealand * British Tax Review *Table of ContentsIntroduction: On the Significance of Revenue Cases John Snape and Dominic de Cogan 1.

Saraband A Book of Death and Fish
Book Synopsis"A bright book and a brilliant book." - Robert Macfarlane. Peter MacAulay sits down to write his will. The process sets in motion a compulsive series of reflections: a history of his own lifetime and a subjective account of how key events in the post-war world filter through to his home, Stornoway. He reveals his passions for history, engines and fish, and witnesses changing times – and things that don’t change – in the Hebrides. The novel is driven by its idiosyncratic narrator, but with counterpoints from people he engages with – his father, mother, wife, daughter, friends. It’s all about stories, a litany of small histories witnessed during one very individual lifetime.Trade Review“It is a Waterland for the Outer Hebrides...it’s a major landmark in fiction of the islands...it’s a landmark in Scottish literature and contemporary fiction more broadly...makes cunning shifts into para-memoir, pseudo-biography, hints of the documentary, but it’s always mobile, always moving. Line for line, the voice was so lively, so inventive, that I relished each paragraph ... Story within story, concentrically nested, or maybe hung like hooks on a line to catch the readers... It’s a bright and vivid and true book, and a work of literature, unmistakably.” -- Robert Macfarlane.“It’s absorbing and riveting. There’s not a single paragraph in A Book of Death and Fish when we are not engaged by the vigour and jump and insistence of his voice.”"Stephen brings a contained concentration and intensity to his chapters that is mesmerizing and true in a deeper way.""Dense, compelling and wildly idiosyncratic, it’s a novel that splits the form open like a fresh catch, glistening and raw and singing with the sea.” -- Kirsty Gunn"A Book Of Death And Fish may well take its place beside Moby-Dick...It will, I suspect, be one of those books I will not put down all my days." -- Candia McWilliam"A fine, far-reaching and and sensitive book.""An excellent, enjoyable and engaging read.”"Ian Stephen has excavated the life and the places that he knows to write a big, sprawling kaleidoscopic and often brilliant book. It is an heir to Neil Gunn as well as to Kevin MacNeil’s 'The Stornoway Way'. -- Roger Hutchinson * West Highland Free Press *

Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd Tax and Financial Planning for the Closely Held
Book SynopsisTax and Financial Planning for the Closely Held Family Business serves as a manual to help business advisers devise strategies for clients dealing with family issues. Guiding family businesses through the complex maze of organizational, tax, financial, governance, estate planning and personal family issues is a complex, time-consuming, difficult, and sometimes emotional process. This book focuses not only on identifying the problems family businesses face, but on devising solutions and planning opportunities for both family businesses and their owners. Tax and Financial Planning for the Closely Held Family Business provides traditional planning techniques as well as many often overlooked non-traditional strategies. The authors, who are Attorneys/CPAs with extensive experience representing family businesses, discuss the role of the family business advisor in dealing with the issues that confront businesses and their owners. Many family business owners may find that the timely involvement of a wise, experienced and careful business adviser can protect the owners from business and family crises. Practitioners, law libraries and law firms will find that each chapter of Tax and Financial Planning for the Closely Held Family Business contains creative planning opportunities that can be studied and implemented in order to solve real problems in the closely held family business.Trade Review'A great desk reference for family business advisors. Easy to read and easy to follow. Advisors will learn about the dynamics of a family business and how they differ from other closely held businesses and the impact that has on operations, compensation, retirement and succession planning. The authors present their unique perspective on these matters and offer creative techniques and solutions to various issues and problems arising with regard to taxes, liquidity and transferring ownership. If you advise a family business, you need this book.' --Bruce J Belman, JD-CPA United States'I highly recommend Tax and Financial Planning for the Closely Held Family Business. It is rare to find a book that uniquely and insightfully focuses on both important family business dynamics, as well as the many crucial financial, income tax, estate planning and other legal issues that should and must be addressed by family business leaders and advisors. It is especially rare to find such a book that is readable, practical and thorough, not to mention having many creative solutions.' --Lawrence J. Eisenberg, P.C./Benefits Law Group, US'For those of us who regularly represent family owned businesses, it is difficult to find a reliable single resource that takes into consideration at a sophisticated level the cornucopia of issues that have to be considered for such work. This type of work requires the ability to nimbly apply not only legal, business and tax law principles, but also requires the advisor to be able to understand nuances of how families work in the context of the family business. Zwick and Jurinski have found a way to pull all of those issues and nuances together in a book that clearly lays out the issues and problems that advisors face in representing family businesses, gives a wide range of suggestions on how to address the various issues that family businesses face from time to time, with an emphasis on how to help make decisions on as tax efficient as basis as possible. The book looks at these issues from various points of view, just like our clients do, and recognizes that this type of work is not a cookie cutter operation. This book will be a valuable tool for advisors to help their family business clients think through complicated issues and be able to consider the use and implementation of various tax planning ideas and structures, including ideas and structures suggested by provisions of the recently enacted Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that may be of benefit to the family business and the family.' --Ronald A.
