Nineteen European academics and researchers contribute 14 chapters reviewing existing knowledge and providing a general empirical perspective on a subject of much debate: the relationship between education and inequality, particularly wage inequality. Coverage includes an overview of the topic followed by chapters analyzing areas of concern including the current lack of understanding of the exact relationship between education and inequality and the specific channels through which educational effects are mediated; school quality and its effect on educational outcomes; measurement issues related to overeducation; inequality in access to and finance of tertiary education; within-group wage inequality among the higher educated; the gender wage gap; the role of labor market institutions; intergenerational education and income mobility; and job and life satisfaction. For labor and education economists, educationalists, policymakers, and academics. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
