In SEE YA lives are often stories not yet written down. Not always ended either, which can fuse the living and the telling into a path not always clear. Especially when the story starts in 1944 and flows into 1996, weaving the characters in and out across those years without knowing one another. This story traces surviving the distance and death that war can bring to both soldiers and family. The resolution comes in the searching for who those loved ones really are when unknown events unfold and mark them. SEE YA was a finalist in the 2010 Military Fiction category of the Indie Awards and celebrated in a strong Small Press Review in June 2010, as well. Backcover comments of "the author caught the essence of war," "a powerful story, a wonderful book," and "there is a depth and beauty in the prose, taking the reader into unknown times and places, making them as real as the chair they are sitting in" are a sampling of readers' deep response to this book. We invite you to come and see!

Rapidly changing technology, the globalization of markets, and the declining role of unions are just some of the factors that have led to dramatic changes in working conditions in the United States. Little attention has been paid to the difficult measurement problems underlying analysis of the labor market. Labor Statistics Measurement Issues helps to fill this gap by exploring key theoretical and practical issues in the measurement of employment, wages, and workplace practices. Some of the chapters in this volume explore the conceptual issues of what is needed, what is known, or what can be learned from existing data, and what needs have not been met by available data sources. Others make innovative uses of existing data to analyze these topics. Also included are papers examining how answers to important questions are affected by alternative measures used and how these can be reconciled. This important and useful book will find a large audience among labor economists and consumers of labor statistics.
