Global Estate Planning : A Practical Guide to the Principles of Estate, Inheritance, and Gift Taxes

F. Sonneveldt(Editor), et al / Hardcover / Published 1996 -- No longer considered taboo, the transfer of wealth to the next generation concerns individuals of all ages. Leaving one's estate to an appointed individual, individuals, or organization carries significant financial implications which enhance the importance of a smooth and cost effective mode of transfer. Increased globalisation mandates an examination of the procedure and implications of differing jurisdictions' decisions on where, to whom, and in what fashion to leave an estate. Global Estate Planning fully addresses the vital, complex questions that arise from the law in this area. This easy-access reference work focuses on inheritance, estate, and gift taxes in key jurisdictions around the world. The country reports, all written by practitioners well-versed in the particularities of their individual national legislations, emphasize the various national and international planning opportunities offered by different jurisdictions. This comprehensive analysis enables Global Estate Planning to meet the needs of the layperson or advisor in making or recommending educated, well-informed fiscal decisions.

  The Keys to Conflict Resolution : Proven Methods of Settling Disputes Voluntarily -- Theodore W. Kheel, William L. Lurie   --  
In The Keys to Conflict Resolution, noted mediator Theodore W. Kheel tells how he helped resolve some of the great showdowns between management and labor over the past 50 years in America. Tapped as a mediator by presidents, governors, and business leaders, Kheel is a veteran of more than 30,000 labor disputes. He was in the thick of the national railroad strikes of the 1960s, the nasty fights between New York City's longshoremen and shippers, and the contract wars involving players and owners in the National Football League.

While most books on negotiating teach you to beat an opponent, Kheel stresses the art of persuasion and the techniques of compromise. "There are times when a tough-as-nails approach will work," he writes. "But the basic aim of negotiation is to get your opponent to agree to give you what you want. You may be able to bully him into doing that. You can also be successful by being skillfully persuasive." Kheel is an expert at the three types of "alternative dispute resolutions": mediation, arbitration, and negotiation. And in separate chapters he explains his "ten commandments" and other fine points for mastering each. Kheel peppers the book with anecdotes about his efforts to settle labor disagreements throughout his long career, including those involving personalities such as comedian Carol Burnett and the late Washington newspaper publisher Philip Graham. This book is for anyone seeking advice on how to reach a deal that's best for all sides at the table. --Dan Ring (amazon reviewer)
