About this book

The high cost of education attracts headlines, but the cost of failing to educate children gets far less notice. This book addresses that gap by setting out the private and public costs of inadequate education.

Leading scholars from economics, education, demography and public health contribute to the volume. They attach hard figures to the relationship between educational attainment and a range of important social and economic indicators.
