Rezensionen
"By bringing together ideas that have disparate origins but a common connection through taxation, as well as esteemed authors with different experiences and perspectives, this book provides another valuable contribution to an area of study which in recent years is seeing renewed interest. The world is rendered a better place through considered debates and this book is ... bursting with dialecticism, leading readers to refine, reflect upon and better their understandings of tax." (Stephen Daly,British Tax Review, Issue 3, 2020)
