Customer Reviews:
Excellent Book!.......2006-08-26
Using this book---and perhaps, a Nolo book or two---you can set up your own wealth protection plan, and assure that the lion's share of your assets will actually past to your intended beneficiaries---not to the government. Sutton writes at the perfect level for the intelligent layperson---not "for dummies", but also, not in unintelligible "legalese".
Another nice touch: although he does mention the various services his firm provides, the usefulness of this book is not at all dependent on that. (Although, after reading this book, I think you will conclude that Sutton is a very knowledgable, and reasonable person, and that using his services may not be a bad idea at all.)
In short, this book actually delivers what so many others only promise.
Limited Liability Partnerships and Companies.......2005-08-27
Very good book. I love the real life situation, if there is a book were you ever asked "I wish they had my situation," this would be it.
Great book for the layman.......2005-07-27
This book covers everything I wanted to know and more. It will be a constant reference book for me.
This Book Provided A Fort Of Protection!.......2002-01-22
There's no doubt that this book is going to help my company become very powerful with lots of protection. The kind of protection that would cost thousands from legal council.
Wealth can take years to achieve but minutes to lose. Thanks
to the author for sharing such incredible valuable information
that will maximize corporate profits while limiting loses. I truly feel that I now have a true fort around my business.
This book should be a required reading for any BUSINESS OWNER
especially if they want MAXIMUM ASSET PROTECTION-THUMBS UP!!

Professional Addition.......2007-10-01
The book is fine, but it didn't point out enough that it is the professional edition which does not come with the turbotax, so I had to end up buying it seperately, it pissed me off, stupid amazon. Wake up.

Customer Reviews:
Tax Manager.......2007-05-14
An absolute must for any tax professional working with partnerships. Like the title indicates, it is very logical and gives an overview of the complex details before diving into the details.
Excellent Book For A Difficult Subject.......2007-04-19
This is an excellent, excellent book! I am law school student struggling my way through partnership tax (with no desire to practice tax law). I have purchased everything under the sun that I thought might give me a better understanding of the subject. This is the first book that I have come accross that really helped. It gives you the "why?" behind the mechanics. I cannot imagine why my professor recommended the Nutshell book as opposed to this book. I cannot recommend it enough!
UPDATE - I got an A in the class and I am positive it was due to this book.
Great Work Tool!.......2007-03-24
I work for the Department of Treasury for one of their tax audting departments. :) This book was helpful in my lLow Thru training and working my cases. The issues are easy to understand and there are great examples! A great tool to have with you when reviewing a flow thru tax case!
Partnership Tax in plain English.......2007-01-10
I took a PS Tax law class and we were assigned a rather lengthy treatise as our textbook, but after a few weeks, it was clear that the treatise would not be helpful for someone taking a first tax course. The Logic of Subchapter K, however, covered almost every major topic the class addressed and did so in 5 to 10 pages of well-written material. I would have been in trouble without this book!
LOGIC OF SUBCHAPTER K --- THE BEST.......2006-11-10
This text is the best out there. Makes a vey difficult part ot the Internal Revenue Code understandable

Book Description
Nationwide, the rhetoric in favor of parent involvement is high, but the quality of most programs is low. This comprehensive book explains the theory, practice, and benefits of school and family partnerships, incorporating ideas and lesson plans that teachers and school officials may use to involve parents in the education of their children. It is a valuable research tool, college text, and professional handbook. Nationwide, the rhetoric in favor of parent involvement is high, but the quality of most programs is low. Part of the problem is that most teacher and administrator training programs omit the topic of school and family partnerships. How can teachers and administrators prepare themselves to create positive relationships and productive partnerships with families? The work of Joyce L. Epstein has helped to advance the theories, research, policies, and practices of parent involvement in schooling. In School and Family Partnerships, she offers readings for use in teacher education, in the training of school administrators, and in other courses that prepare professionals to work in schools and with families. The book offers educators a framework for thinking about, talking about, and then actually building comprehensive programs for school and family partnerships. Epstein helps readers understand the theory of overlapping spheres of influence of family and school organizations that support children as students; she reviews the research on the implementation and effects of partnerships; and she offers a framework of six types of involvement for creating partnerships. Epstein encourages readers to apply the theory, framework, and research in class projects and assignments; and she helps them see how to gather ideas for specific practices of partnership to use in elementary, middle, and high schools. This book can be used as a main or supplementary text in courses on elementary, middle, or high school education, including courses in foundations of education, new methods in education, and preparation for administrators or school psychologists. It is also meant for practice-teaching seminars, as well as classes in school psychology and school social work. The material introduces the topic of school and family partnerships in courses in sociology of education, sociology of family, educational psychology, social work, counseling, home economics, and community education.

Bible for teaching school-family-community partnerships.......2001-04-25
This is the best book on the market about school, family, and community partnerships for use in teacher education and school administrator training! Based on decades of research, Epstein has pulled together all the pieces necessary to help educators understand the importance of partnerships, the effects of these partnerships on student outcomes, and the necessary components for building comprehensive school, family, and community partnerships in elementary, middle, and high schools, located in urban, suburban, and rural settings. The research-based framework and approaches Epstein discusses will help all educators create postive relationships and productive partnerships with families and communities, linked directly to school improvement goals. One of the strongest parts of the book is the class projects and assignments found at the end of each chapter. My only regret is that this book was not part of my required reading as a student. If increasing numbers of educators have the opportunity to read Epstein's book and then apply what they've learned, our educational system and students will benefit tremendously.
Book Description
West Federal Taxation: Corporations, Partnerships, Estates & Trusts, 2005 Edition maintains the tradition of excellence with its coverage of tax legislation as it impacts Corporations, Partnerships, Estates, and Trusts. The authors provide accessible, comprehensive, and authoritative coverage of relevant tax Code and regulations, as well as all major developments in federal taxation. This market-leading text is intended for students who have had a previous course in tax.
Book Description
A practical, hands-on primer on helping schools and families work better together to improve children's education.
Countless studies demonstrate that students with parents actively involved in their education at home and school are more likely to earn higher grades and test scores, enroll in higher-level programs, graduate from high school, and go on to post-secondary education. Beyond the Bake Sale shows how to form these essential partnerships and how to make them work.
First published by the National Committee for Citizens in Education in 1986, Beyond the Bake Sale went on to sell more than 50,000 copies in nine editions. Packed with tips from principals and teachers, checklists, and an invaluable resource section, this updated and substantially expanded edition reveals how to build strong collaborative relationships and offers practical advice for improving interactions between parents and teachers, from insuring that PTA groups are constructive and inclusive to navigating the complex issues surrounding diversity in the classroom.
Written with candor, clarity, and humor, Beyond the Bake Sale is essential reading for teachers, parents on the front lines in public schools, and administrators and policy makers at all levels.
Includes answers to these questions:
• What is a family-school partnership supposed to look like?
• How can schools and families build trust instead of blaming each other?
• How can involving parents help raise students' test scores?
• How can teachers relate to families who don't share their culture and values?
Customer Reviews:
Demonstrating how to move research to practice.......2007-06-25
I will not be surprised when Beyond the Bake Sale becomes referenced as the quintessential book on parent participation. The book not only takes a widely researched topic and presents it in an organized, easy to read format, it also reads like a how-to book rather than a textbook, making the topic much more approachable.
Beyond the Bake Sale became a resource to me and participants in a recent study I did with parents of children who have disabilities, educators, and school leaders. During the study participants worked to discover parent participation techniques that would open doors to both parents of children with disabilities and educators within their schools. At the end of the study, I was able to provide each participant with a copy of this book along with a list of suggested pages that fit the needs of each individual school site. The participants were overjoyed to receive the book and many (both parents and educators) have already e-mailed me saying they appreciate the way the book presents the information. Based on the feedback of others and my own reading, Beyond the Bake Sale is not only informative, it is inspirational.
Fantastic resource.......2007-03-28
No more excuses for not engaging parents in their children's education! This book provides essential information for every educational leader, teacher, or parent who wants to break down the barriers to parent involvement. Every page is a gem, filled with valuable insights and clear strategies.
It couldn't be any better.......2007-03-19
This is the book I have been waiting for! If I could give it 6 stars, I would. Six years ago I attended a workshop on parent involvement with Don Davies and Karen Mapp as presenters and it changed my life. Since then I have been working in my children's schools and in the community to establish home/school /community partnerships. Over the years I have collected three files drawers full of materials, one full shelf of books and another full shelf of binders filled with things I downloaded from the internet. I've read it all and I will tell you that this book represents the very best of it in one concise, easy-to-read, and easy-to-follow volume.
It's all here: the research(presented in an approachable manner), background on the implications of No Child Left Behind on how schools must interact with parents, case studies, tools for evaluating where you are, instructions for creating action research teams( which I have used with great success), a section on the value of parents in the arena of advocating for school improvement, and a comprehensive list of resources which are accessible to anyone with a computer and a desire to improve their schools.
I never read Anne Henderson's first Bake Sale book, but I did have the opportunity to see her speak. Her depth of knowledge in this area is incredible and her ability to make the information accessible to her audience is exceptional. All of that comes through in this book. If you want better parent involvement in your schools, start by reading this book.
Should be required reading..........2007-02-22
This is the book I've been looking for since my daughter entered the public school system a year and a half ago! As an active and involved parent, I was eager to get involved at her school. I volunteered regularly in her classroom, I attended all her events (those in the classroom and those that were school-wide.) I joined PTO and attended meetings regularly. I served on planning committees and contributed to fund-raisers. Still, I lacked a way in to what seemed like a very tight system of parents and teachers working together. I felt as though I didn't have enough experience to know what was approriate to talk about where and when. I didn't have the confidence (even after being a teacher myself for five years) to ask the questions I wanted to ask about the way our school worked.
The transition to first grade was not a smooth one for our family. My daughter's teacher was a first-year teacher and lacked the experience she needed to keep the lines of parent-teacher communication wide open. Our concerns snowballed quickly and we were ready to pull our daughter out of the school system and look for alternatives when I found this book.
This book presents advice, tips, and plans for teachers, parents, and administrators to begin working towards collaboration and cooperation in the school setting. Our children can only benefit from having more people on their teams! I want to be recognized as an important member of my daughter's team. This book has given me tips on ways to get my daughter's school to see me that way (beyond the basics I was already doing.) I found the list of questions to ask at conferences or in meetings to be particularly helpful as ways in to a conversation with my daughter's teacher even when nothing is going wrong.
My experience has been that teachers and administrators all say the same thing. They know that family involvement is integral to student success and they urge parents to get involved. However, when it comes down to the actual work of providing those opportunities many teachers fall short.
I am meeting with our principal next week and I plan to bring this book as a donation to the school. I hope the administrators will pass the title along to the other teachers and staff at our school. I will bring another copy to the next PTO meeting, and hopefully we will start to work towards change from there. I want to give this book to every parent I know! One parent, teacher, principal--one school at a time--that is how we will transform.

Customer Reviews:
A good book for one to understand partnership accounting.......2007-05-13
The book is well organized. Practical. A nice starter's book for accountant who wants to get in the door of private equity fund's accounting world.
it's OK as an introductory book.......2006-12-31
The book provides an introductory overview of partnership accounting. All the calculations and formulas cited in the book are from its own software. Those similar formulas are also provided in other softwares which are much more commonly used, e.g. MS Excel. Lots of time spent on the tax allocations rather than on the P&L allocations. There're also apparent errors in the formulas as well, such as the annualized return calculation on P. 246.
