Product details

This is quite literally the worst law school textbook I have ever been assigned. It is literally worthless, despite its ridiculous price. I would give it zero stars, but won't let me do that...so one star it is. The thing is poorly written and was, and will be until this class is over, the bane of my existence. I get ill looking at the book. I consider jumping off my balcony every time I look at the book, but I live on the second floor and there is an awning directly below my balcony, making any attempt futile and equally pathetic as is this book's attempt to explain tax to anyone or anything, bird, beast, or fowl. I cannot wait to re-sell this piece of refuse to another law student to recoup at least some of my money. This is the ONLY law school textbook I have ever had any desire to part with. I, however do not intend to sell my statutory supplement. This is not because I think it is a great piece of legislation, but rather because the re-sale value is too low to justify the resale compared to what I plan to do to it. I am going to Rand Paul the statutory supplement (that's taking a chainsaw to it for those who missed the last presidential primary) instead. Only buy this book if you have a death wish you wish you follow through on. This book will be your own Kevorkian device.
Totally useless and incoherent. Professors assigning this book are doing students a disservice. Use the Chirelstein supplement instead, and assign edited cases.
