I will have to buy this book! Very good information and examples, including summaries at the end of the chapters. I love it. More importantly, it is an easy read for non-tax accountants and attorneys.
This book has lots of great information and ideas for reducing your overall tax burden, but it's not really a book you would read from cover to cover. Just pick the sections that are relevant to you and focus on those areas.
