English | PDF | 2006 | 194 Pages | ISBN : 0387291741 | 1.5 MB
This volume contains essays by or about Jacob Mincer who, along with Gary Becker, is a founding father of modern empirical labor economics. His methodology analyzes the economics of the working world, and his human capital model is a fundamental tool in empirical economics.
This is a very personal collection. It not only examines Mincer’s research; it also assesses the impact of his work on the careers of several important economists and includes portions of Mincer’s correspondence with those scholars.
