"More and better jobs" is the underlying theme of this insightful
new book. David Levine analyzes the current labor market in the
U.S. and concludes that social policy must change to cope with the
realities of the new economy. Although market forces are now moving
U.S. enterprise toward high-skill and flexible workplaces, there is
a shortage of workers with adequate skills in problem solving and
teamwork. To combat this problem, the author presents an ambitious
agenda of lifelong learning that will enable American workers to
take advantage of the opportunities afforded by the new economic
realities. Levine's analysis recommends specific government
policies to encourage early childhood education, to improve
schools, to help parents finance college, and to help students make
the transition from school to work. He also discusses policies that
will improve the regulation of workplaces. The book concludes with
policy recommendations for individuals changing jobs, as well as
for the unemployed, the disabled, and the poor.
