Average Rating: 
Lifesaver for Non-Tax Law Students
Rating:
To this day, I believe in my heart that the ONLY reason I passed tax was due to this book, and the "Law in a Flash" cards that the company also sells. This book will not replace tax class or BarBri, but for people like me-- Con Law lawyers, nonbusiness-- it can be the difference between passing and failing, it boils down the information into usable chapters and outlines.
Obsolete
Rating:
This book is helpful and well organized like the other Emanuels. The questions at the end of each chapter are good. But, the book was published in 2005 and a lot has changed, making it obsolete in many areas. Beware! (and time for a new edition!).
Tax is just hard
Rating:
The outline was very helpful--tax is just a difficult subject to master. I used the book as a supplement to my text book. You certainly cannot use only the outline and expect to learn federal income tax well. It is an invaluable resource when used to help reinforce a concept. Also, when I did not understand a concept the outline was great because it generally used easier terms and examples to explain the bare bones of a subject. Once I understood the outline's explanation, it was much easier to understand my text book.
good outline
Rating:
This is just about as good as the other emanuel outlines, but income tax is a diificult subject to outline.
This book is bad.
Rating:
I usually like the Emanuel outlines and have found them invaluable now for eight other courses I've taken. The Taxation outline is an exception. I forced myself through the first five chapters in this book and then gave up on it, realizing that it was not adding to my general understanding of the course material or any of the little details either, for that matter. It was too hard to read and follow to be of help.
