Her best known book is Taxing Multinationals: Transfer Pricing and Corporate Income Taxation in North America,^[10] published in 1998 by the University of Toronto Press. Taxing Multinationals, a seminal work in the field of transfer pricing, is a multidisciplinary study, which explains the basic motivations and structures of multinational enterprises, their trade patterns in the North American continent; introduces the fundamentals of corporate income taxation to build upon the concepts of international transfer pricing—including transfer pricing procedures in the United States and Canada, transfer pricing manipulation, and ways to effectively reform the tax transfer pricing policies.^[11]

She served as the journal's editor-in-chief from July 2007 to December 2010. Since 2013, she has continued her involvement as a consulting editor.^[12]

Eden served as an associate professor from 1988 to 1992 and full professor from 1992 to 1995 at the Norman Paterson School of International Affairs at the Carleton University.
