 Very thick book is a mile wide and an inch deep, 2007-10-18
This guide has a lot of bulk but not that much substance. Sure, there's a good amount of superficial information that will be helpful to 99% of "straightforward" situations, but if you run your own business, invest in rental real estate, etc, this book will do nothing for you.
You can get a lot of useful information for free from the IRS publications website, and it covers the topic material in more depth and with greater detail. Lasser's guide does add a bit of insight with regard to recent tax dispute rulings and how that might affect the interpretation of some of the IRS codes, but there isn't that much really useful in-depth information.
I thought the Lasser book would be more comprehensive. It certainly is thick enough, but once you look inside its clear that they've spread a modest amount of material very thinly. Just my opinion of course, but for my real estate investment questions, it was absolutely useless to me and I had to go elsewhere. John T. Reed's Agressive Tax Guide is a resource I could recommend for that type of info.
Rather than buy this book, I'd start with IRS Publication 17 "Your Income Tax" and go from there.

Best in the Federal Tax Business, 2007-07-02
"JK Lasser's Your Income Tax 2007" is the best reference book for federal income taxes is the business. They have been publishing tax guides for 75 years. We first learned of this valuable resource when we saw it on an IRS auditor's shelf, many years ago. Since then when working in small public libraries it is the only tax guide purchased for the collection.
Of great value is their coding system: Filling tips-when and how, Planning Reminder gives the tax-payer suggestions for year-end tax strategies, Caution points out pitfalls to avoid, Law Alert indicates a recent change in the law, Court Decision signals new Tax Court rulings, and IRS Alert flags key rulings and announcements,not all rulings that affect the code come from the court-they maybe nothing more than a letter from the IRS. But these letters have influence within the department as to how an item is viewed as to its value as a deductible.
This is one of the big guys from which most smaller books have been devised. The volume is cumbersome as more and more information is packed into it, but it is easy to use with a fantastic index. We have include a diagram of the citation system in our book, because it helps the reader to understand the system of indexing. If it is used correctly you can go directly to the pertinent information for your situation.

The Only Thing It Didn't Do Is My Taxes For Me, 2007-04-11
This is a remarkable series (if every year's book is as good as this one is. It really covers almost every situation with clear examples. Although I still had to seek professional advice concerning K1 forms, clear advice on limited partnerships inside an IRA was almost unavailable anywhere else, so I cannot fault Lasser too much.
Great resource.
