In this review text that is meant to supplement class lectures and reading, Bankman (law and business, Stanford U.) et al. teach students federal income tax law through a question-and-answer approach. They summarize what is usually covered in classes, from gross income to capital gains and losses, then ask a series of questions called "examples" and give explanations, with sample law school exams at the end of the text. This edition incorporates changes made by recent federal statutes, including the Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010, the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010, the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, the Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act, and the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.
