Modern Labor Economics: Theory and Public Policy

Great Price "Modern Labor Economics: Theory and Public Policy" Today

I was a teaching assistant in a labor economics undergraduate course in Northwestern University that used this book. I found it very interesting and full of real-world examples and discussions. The mathematical level is simple and therefore the book is accessible also to students with only little background in mathematics or economics. The exposition is clear. About half of the problems and the review questions are solved at the end of the book, making it possible for the reader to practice and test her understanding of the material. I believe that most students can understand most of the material in the book even without taking a formal course in labor economics, and therefore I recommend it to anyone who is interested in the functioning of labor markets.

Modern Labor Economics: Theory and Public Policy Overviews

Comprehensively surveying the field of labor economics, this market-leading textbook showcases both current and classic research. The authors develop the modern theory of labor market behavior, summarize empirical evidence supporting or contradicting each hypothesis, and illustrate the usefulness of various theories for public policy analysis. In addition to the policy examples woven throughout the narrative, each chapter offers two or more cases that illustrate the application of theory in a nontraditional, business, historical, or cross-cultural context. The Eighth Edition provides updated coverage and references to the professional literature throughout, as well as many new boxed policy examples and new end-of-chapter numerical problems.

Decent Study Guide - Jason Shao - Piscataway, NJ USA
This study guide was pretty good. The questions have a good mix of difficulty, and the samples and explanations really helped with a couple of the concepts that were pretty unclear in the book.
