Excellent Guide for Corporate Taxation

This is an excellent book to understand Subchapter C. The order it follows is methodical. It goes to explain all the tax issues that arise from formation of the corporation (incorporation and contributions) to midlife events (dividends, redemptions) to liquidation. It deals with taxable and non-taxable reorganizations and with such interesting issues as Section 304 transactions. It is not and cannot be a complete guide to corporate taxation. it would have to be several volumes, but it accomplishes perfectly what it is meant to do. Cheryl Block did a fantastic job. the example and explanations are very useful.

Best Corporate Tax Review Book on the Market

Professor Block's book is really, really good - very easy to understand. She manages to make what are complex tax laws understandable -- I couldn't imagine taking my corp tax class without this study aid. The writing is unusually good for a law treatise.

The Best

It's the best corporate tax book out there period.

Extremely Helpful

Corp. tax is one of the more difficult courses in Law School, but is highly recommended for anyone with an interest in transactional practice, or looking to improve their skills in using challenging statutory material. This book makes the subject a great deal easier---one of the better study aids I've used. The explanations are very lucid, and the problems are extremely helpful for exam prep. Keep this within arm's reach of your I.R.C.

A Corporate Tax Student from a Boston Law School

I highly recommend Cheryl Block's book on Corporate Taxation to any student of Corporate Tax. The book is easy to read and succinctly describes the intricacies of the fundamental corporate tax issues. Ms. Block's explanation of section 304 (Redemptions by related corporations) was a tremendous help and her examples drove home the basics. In addition, I found it very easy to read the explanations along with my case book to supplement my weekly readings. Ms. Block takes each section of the code and reworks it into common, understandable language. Without this book, I would never be able to participate in class discussion. One of the best aspects of this publication is that it is very recent. Overall, a superior study and learning aid.
