Presentation of the book Rebellion, Rascals, and Revenue: Tax Follies and Wisdom Through the Ages by Michael Keen and Joel Slemrod.

In this entertaining book, two leading authorities on taxation, Michael Keen and Joel Slemrod, provide a fascinating and informative tour through preposterous and dramatic episodes in tax history. The result is a surprising and one-of-a-kind account of how history illuminates the perennial challenges and timeless principles of taxation – and how the past holds clues to solving the tax problems of today.
