The 19th Edition of Federal Income Taxation (authored by Joe Bankman, Dan Shaviro, Kirk Stark, and Erin Scharff) is the updated 2023 version of the classic casebook for law school classes in federal income taxation originally authored by Boris Bittker of Yale Law School.
Integrating theory and policy in an accessible format, the sterling author team of Federal Income Taxation imbues its subject with historical, economic, policy, and international perspective. Problems integrated throughout the text bridge the gap between theory and practice. Each edition of this renowned text builds on and adds to the strengths of its predecessors.

  • New materials relating to race and the federal income tax

  • Notes, problems, and graphs make challenging material accessible
  • The highest integration of economics and policy analysis
  • A terrific teacher's manual with teaching notes on every case and concept
  • Great pedigree and authorship: Original authors Boris Bittker and William A. Klein were eminent authorities (with beautiful writing styles). Bankman, Shaviro, Stark, and Scharff are among today's leading tax scholars

About the authors
Joseph Bankman
Stanford University

A leading scholar in the field of tax law, Joseph Bankman is the author of two widely used casebooks on the subject. His writings on tax policy cover topics such as progressivity, consumption tax, and the role of tax in the structure of Silicon Valley start-ups. He has gained wide attention for his work on how government might control the use of tax shelters and has testified before Congress and other legislative bodies on tax compliance problems posed by the cash economy. He has written and spoken extensively on how we might use technology to simplify filing. He also worked with the State of California to co-author a bill creating ReadyReturn—a completed tax return prepared by the state. Before joining the Stanford Law School faculty in 1989, Professor Bankman was a professor at the University of Southern California Law Center and a tax practitioner with the Los Angeles firm of Tuttle Taylor.

Kirk J. Stark
University of California, Los Angeles

Kirk Stark teaches Federal Income Taxation, Taxation Distributive Justice, Financing State and Local Government, and the first-year Property course. In addition, he serves as faculty coordinator of the UCLA Colloquium on Tax Policy Public Finance, an interdisciplinary workshop designed to explore leading research on taxation. Professor Stark was elected Professor of the Year by the law school graduating classes of 1999 and 2002. In 2003, he received the University Distinguished Teaching Award.

Professor Stark writes in the areas of tax policy and public finance. His recent book War and Taxes (with Steve Bank and Joe Thorndike) offers a political history of U.S. tax policy during wartime. Much of Professor Stark's scholarship has examined the American system of fiscal federalism and considers how best to allocate fiscal responsibilities among federal, state, and local governments. He was recently selected as a research fellow for the UCLA Center for American Politics and Public Policy for his project Rich States, Poor States: American Federalism and the Politics of Fiscal Equalization. The study examines fiscal disparities among the U.S. states and considers whether the federal government should adopt a Canadian-style system of equalization grants to alleviate those disparities.

Professor Stark is also the co-author of two leading casebooks in the areas of federal and state taxation. Professor Stark serves on the Board of Directors of the National Tax Association, a nonpartisan organization founded in 1907 to promote the study of tax policy and public finance. During the fall semester of 2008, he will be a visiting professor at Harvard Law School.
