This is a genius way of dealing with the scourge of AI summaries, not to mention the added enjoyment that it will bring to tax research.
Delighted to see this volume on the shelves. Thanks to Roberta Bassi @hartpublishing.bsky.social, @bloomsburybooksuk.bsky.social and to all the authors .
Some wonderful writing in here, which I hope is widely read: the chapters are also available on Bloomsbury Collections Online.
This looks like a great opportunity to join a strong and welcoming Law team.
