Reviews
"Provides a valuable comparative frame of reference...the chapters are linked together with considerable precision and conscious design." Work, employment and society
"This timely book provides incisive analysis from leading scholars of a key issue of contemporary politics on both sides of the Atlantic. It explores why middle incomes have stagnated and discusses what might be done about it. If you read one political book this year you should read this one." Andrew Gamble, Professor of Politics, University of Cambridge
