International tax primer / Brian J. Arnold.

International Tax Primer' provides an introduction to the policies that countries seek to advance with their international tax rules, with numerous examples drawn from the practices of both developed and developing countries. This third edition has been expanded substantially, as a result of major developments that have occurred since the second edition of this indispensable resource appeared in 2004 - not least due to the fact that innumerable small and medium-sized firms, as well as individuals, now engage in cross-border transactions that require they, and their tax advisers to confront international tax issues on a regular basis. This book aims to strike a balance between the specific, and the general, by illustrating the fundamental principles and structure of international tax with frequent reference to actual practice in a variety of countries.
