  • Changes In New Edition
    In the six years since the last edition was published, Congress has adopted a number of major tax acts. The new edition adds discussion of many of the provisions of those acts, including:

    • the Small Business and Work Opportunity Act of 2007
    • the Tax Increase Prevention Act of 2007
    • the Tax Technical Corrections Act of 2007
    • the Tax Extenders and Alternative Minimum Tax Relief Act of 2008
    • the American Recovery and Reinvestment Tax Act of 2009
    • the Tax Relief Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization and Jobs Creation Act of 2010
    • the RIC Modernization Act of 2010.

    The new edition also includes some of the regulations, proposed regulations, and administrative rulings that were promulgated in the intervening six-year period.

    A number of judicial decisions that were made in the intervening six years have been added. Some examples of new cases that were added and discussed are

    • Home Concrete & Supply LLC v. United States, ___ F3d ___ (4th Cir. 2011)
    • Beard v. Commissioner, ___ F3d ____ (7th Cir. 2011)
    • Lattera v. Commissioner, 437 F3d 399 (3d Cir. 2006)
    • Sklar v. Commissioner, 549 F3d 1252 (9th Cir. 2008).

    Significant portions of the book were rewritten to make it more accessible to students, and new shorter chapters replaced long older chapters. For example, the following are all new chapters:

    • Chapter Two (Fringe Benefits)
    • Chapter Three (Compensation for Services)
    • Chapter Four (Damages and Loss Recovery)

    The subject matter in the above chapters was contained in the fifth edition, but the material has been significantly rewritten and put into separate chapters.
