Why read it?
1 author picked Butler to the World as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
How did the UK and its network of dependent territories emerge as the greatest global threat, in terms of tax abuse and financial secrecy? And just how much damage has this done to the country itself, never mind all those it has helped to cheat elsewhere?
If you’re interested in these questions, I can’t recommend any book more highly than that of investigative journalist Oliver Bullough. His answers are damning, and sharply comic. “We are now a nation of Jeeveses, snobbish enablers for rich halfwits of considerably less charm than Bertie Wooster. It doesn’t have to be that way.”
From Alex's list on tax justice.
