"Although this comprehensive reference work contains articles on topics of both economics and finance, the subject matter, as captured by the title, is decidedly focused on issues of economics and finance of education and educators. This unique focus will interest educators and educational researchers, since even standard-fare topics, such as Cost-benefit analysis and Spillover effects, are focus on the economics and finance of education.
"...The coverage of such issues as budgeting, vouchers, and teacher labor is matched by almost no other source, and its interdisciplinary approach also makes this work unique. The set is a strong addition to collections serving undergraduate and graduate programs in education and business, Teachers, school administrators, members of school boards, and citizens seeking to understand school finance issues would also find the set valuable. Summing Up: Highly recommended. All academic audiences; general readers and professionals/practitioners."
