“The hardest thing in the world to understand is the income tax.” When one of the smartest minds on Earth, Albert Einstein no less, finds something hard to understand, surely it must be. And that’s just income tax. Tax has evolved leaps and bounds since then and, not to forget, has got way more complex! During my professional career, I have interacted with a wide spectrum of individuals, from students to CEOs. Tax, by virtue of its draconian nature and complexity, continues to haunt everyone. Given the lack of basic tax knowledge, people tend to consider it complex and fear it. But once you understand the basics and are able to draw a framework, things fall in place. We have made a humble attempt to cultivate an understanding of tax right from its core by breaking it down into easy, digestible bits so that anyone can make sense of it. Further, the book is not voluminous (as with most tax literature), enabling ease of comprehensive completion of the basics. With Demystifying Tax for The Common Man, we want to simplify tax for our readers. We believe spreading knowledge and giving back are both equally essential for any society. With 100% of this book's profits, we will support NGOs fighting breast cancer in underprivileged areas.

The extraordinary life story of the former chairman of the Federal Reserve, whose absolute integrity provides the inspiration we need as our constitutional system and political tradition are being tested to the breaking point. As chairman of the Federal Reserve (1979-1987), Paul Volcker slayed the inflation dragon that was consuming the American economy and restored the world's faith in central bankers. That extraordinary feat was just one pivotal episode in a decades-long career serving six presidents. Told with wit, humor, and down-to-earth erudition, the narrative of Volcker's career illuminates the changes that have taken place in American life, government, and the economy since World War II. He vibrantly illustrates the crises he managed alongside the world's leading politicians, central bankers, and financiers. Yet he first found his model for competent and ethical governance in his father, the town manager of Teaneck, NJ, who instilled Volcker's dedication to absolute integrity and his "three verities" of stable prices, sound finance, and good government.
