Editors Weimer (public affairs and political science, U. of Wisconsin- Madison) and Vining (business and government relations, Simon Fraser U.) enlist the help of leading scholars to discuss the benefits of cost-benefit analyses (CBA) in the field of social policy. Written for students and researchers, this volume applies CBAs to social programs such as parole programs, job training programs for disadvantaged youth and community-based services for substance abuse and serious mental illnesses. Articles are also devoted to welfare-to-work and other incentives, and overviews are provided on state-of-the-art CBA practices that are financially sound.
