In effect, he has given us two books in one. The first is a very useful general guide to the basics of the rules and how they work in practice, with illuminating international comparisons to the often distinctive U.S. rules. The second is a clear and spirited defense of Avi-Yonah's particular views about international tax policy. These do not attract consensus in the field - nor do anyone else's views - but they can help stimulate further thinking about these complicated and important issues.'- Daniel Shaviro, New York University, USAdvanced Introduction to International Tax Law provides a concise yet wide-ranging overview of the key issues surrounding taxation and international law from a world authority on international tax.Systems of taxation deviate between jurisdictions and contrasting, income based levies on both individuals and enterprises are implemented depending on the nature or source of income.
