"This volume is the best source for any scholar seeking a one-volume treatment of current issues and findings on mobility and inequality."—George Farkas, University of California, Irvine "Mobility and Inequality delivers on its promise to integrate sociological and economic approaches to inequality. Leading scholars assess the past and set the future agenda for mobility research."—Mike Hout, University of California, Berkeley "In Mobility and Inequality, some of the very best scholars in economics and sociology bring the intergenerational mobility literature forward in ways that conventional journal articles generally are unable to do. By blending these approaches to mobility research, the book brings the two academic fields closer to each other than I ever have seen before."—Anders Björklund, Stockholm University
