The new edition of a widely used, comprehensive graduate-level text and professional reference covering all aspects of labor economics, with substantial new material. This landmark graduate-level text combines depth and breadth of coverage with recent, cutting-edge work in all the major areas of modern labor economics. Its command of the literature and its coverage of the latest theoretical, methodological, and empirical developments make it also a valuable resource for practicing labor economists. This second edition has been substantially updated and augmented. It incorporates examples drawn from many countries, and it presents empirical methods using contributions that have proved to be milestones in labor economics. The data and codes of these research publications, as well as numerous tables and figures describing the functioning of labor markets, are all available on a dedicated website (www.labor-economics.org), along with slides that can be used as course aids and a discussion forum. This edition devotes more space to the analysis of public policy and the levers available to policy makers, with new chapters on such topics as discrimination, globalization, income redistribution, employment protection, and the minimum wage or labor market programs for the unemployed. Theories are explained on the basis of the simplest possible models, which are in turn related to empirical results. Mathematical appendixes provide a toolkit for understanding the models.

Excerpt from A Handbook of Labor Literature: Being a Classified and Annotated List of the More Important Books and Pamphlets in the English Language Whether the labor question be approached by the man who finds that things as they are, are good enough for me, or by him Who sees and is striving for a better industrial life, he needs to know the best which has been thought and written in the world. If his thinking is less than this, if it is confined to economic thought, he loses sight of important aspects of the subject. There is, however, great need at the present time of definite information on the question in its specific forms.
