Presenting a radically different view of the operations of the labor market, in this 1999 book Professors Pryor and Schaffer explain the growing inequality in wages and how those with the least education are being squeezed out of the labor market. Why have wages in those jobs requiring extra-high cognitive skills risen while all other wages have stagnated or fallen? And why are more university graduates taking high-school jobs? The authors of this volume present data revealing that jobs which require a high educational level are increasing more slowly than those with somewhat lower requirements. However such jobs are increasing faster than those requiring still less formal education. Professors Pryor and Schaffer also show how women are replacing men in jobs which require higher levels of education and, moreover, how those with high cognitive skills are replacing those with lower cognitive skills.
Changing economic circumstances - namely, an end to the primacy of labour and property as determinants of prosperity - have created a need for a new theoretical platform: one that transcends standard economic discourse.

[Author abstract] This Thesis evaluates solutions to the Klein-Gordon equation with scalar and vector potentials in the ymmetric and Landau gauges. The solution for the Klein-Gordon equation in the Symmetric gauge does reproduce elements of the two dimensional quantum harmonic oscillator. The Landau gauge solution is used in the velocity selector situation where particles can have acceleration free motion for a selected velocity. The Klein paradox for spinless particles is reviewed and its application to the Klein-Gordon equation shows that the vector potential can have an effect on particle pair production without the violation of conservation of momentum or energy, that this effect is to suppress the particle pair production associated with Klein's paradox and that the suppressive effect can, under certain conditions, become strong enough to prevent particle pair production in Klein's paradox when the scalar potential is otherwise many times what would be necessary to create Klein's paradox particle pairs.
