Taxes Made Simple: Income Taxes Explained in 100 Pages or Less




I thought this book was ideal for someone with little to no background in taxes. I thought the material was easy to follow and understand. This book won’t make you a tax professional as it is not terribly in-depth but the book never pretended to be (thus Taxes Made Simple name).
I would recommend this book to anyone trying to understand short term versus long term capital gains, tax deductions, etc.

I’ve been using TurboTax to file my taxes for years. I input my numbers, answers the questions, and blindly submit my taxes, not really understanding what I was doing.
The “Taxes Made Simple” book has help me understand the basics of income taxes quickly and easily. I found the sections on common deductions and IRAs very helpful. It’s perfect for someone who would like to know more about taxes are and how to better prepare for the years ahead.

I teach Tax Accounting at a community college and find the material in our textbook very challenging for the students. I recently came across Mike Piper’s series of small books, including “Taxes Made Simple.” It’s absolutely fantastic – short, easy to read, covers the main areas of concern and it’s timely. It’s so good, I’m buying a copy for each student and it will be their first reading assignment this coming Fall semester. It really makes taxes approachable and that’s just what we need at the community college level. Great job, Mr. Piper.
