Taxation, tax policies and income taxes
From the publisher: Using empirical methods, this volume examines a broad range of subjects including tax evasion, tax policies' effect on the dispersion of wages, and property and corporate taxation. Articles vary between specific case studies and consideration of larger issues, but mainly focus on the issues of fiscal policies and tax administration. Not confined to issues in the United States, there are chapters on the effects of income tax systems on homeowner mobility in Japan and on labor supply decisions in Italy.

Tax policy lessons from the 2000s
From the publisher: Viard, a resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, has edited this analysis of the American tax system and how it holds up against the latest global financial crises. Expert commentators discuss such topics as the implementation of environmental taxes as a response to climate change, the impact on taxation on entries and exits in the labor market and how the "elasticity" of taxable income influences tax policy design in a profound way. Designed for policymakers who must confront issues of taxation, this book uses theoretical models and statistics to support its recommendations for the future of tax codes in the United States.
