Book
Examines the low-skill labor market and its capacity to sustain a rising tide of workers with limited education, offering both good and bad news about work and welfare reform. Looks at specific trends in the labor market, discussing aspects such as job security and wage growth, and explores provisions for health insurance, subsidies for child care, and potential costs of new welfare restrictions. Card is professor of economics and head of the Center for Labor Economics at the University of California-Berkeley. Blank is dean of the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy and professor of public policy at the University of Michigan. Both editors are researchers at the National Bureau of Economic Research.--Publisher (barnesandnoble.com)
