This book is an interesting read. Makes you care about one of the most important things of life. Not just modern life but antiquity too, going through the history of what people paid as taxes in different civilizations. Along the way you can rehash all the thigns you already know, learn some new thigns and make mental notes of what areas you should be focusing enxt in terms of efficiient taxes.

I am really not sure who this book was targeted towards... to learn about the history of various taxes? why? Taxes 101 implies it might be helpful to someone preparing their taxes but it was anything but. For me, fairly useless. Sorry.
