About this book
This book explores the growing tension between the requirements of employers for a flexible work force and the ability of parents and communities to nurture their children and provide for their health, welfare, and education.
Reviews
This is a very ambitious, creative, and broad-sweeping effort to recast thinking about labor market policies to encompass family-work relations, globalization, and changes in technology. Martin Carnoy has broken new ground and provided a very substantial and valuable contribution.

Martin Carnoy has written a very exciting book that will stimulate much useful discussion. He presents a nuanced and balanced view of the knowledge economy and the transformations that are occurring in the workplace and the family. His policy suggestions should have a great impact on politicians, pundits, and the public discourse.
