It is the very first study of that type regarding the Polish tax system.

The following book is an attempt of combining public finance and behavioral finance together with the elements of experimental economics. It will enable the reader to view taxation from a different perspective and find answers to the following questions: Why are we, on one hand, in favor of pro-family tax reliefs and, on the other hand, against higher taxation for childless people? Do we really opt for progressive taxation or are we simply subject to some illusions?
The following publication can be used by lecturers, researchers, students and those who would like to take a closer look at taxes and the tax system from a completely different angle.
