Seller's Description:
Very Good. First published in 1970, this is a classic study of the relations of education to employment and a critique of human capital theory; it documents an inflation in educational credentials that has no relation to many jobs requiring diplomas and degrees and no positive effect on productivity; includes a new introduction by Berg and foreword by Eli Ginzberg (green cover with yellow & white lettering, slight edgewear; otherwise a bright, clean, tight copy)
