In the six years since the appearance of the first edition of Stephen Smith's book, labour economics has become a more firmly entrenched subject on the curriculum. Previously regarded as a subsection within industrial economics, there are now very few universities that do not devote a course to it in its own right. The focus of topics covered within it has also altered - the notion of human capital has now become much more central and microeconomic considerations are now more widely studied than macroeconomic phenomena. The 2nd edition will address these changes and give greater centrality to microeconomics to reflect current course teaching. This excellent new book is a must-see for all those involved in Labour Economics.
