Longitudinal Analysis of Labor Market Data presents a set of papers by leading scholars on methods for analysing the longitudinal data that is available on numerous topics of interest to social scientists. Because many sources of longitudinal data record labour market phenomena such as unemployment, labour supply, earnings mobility, job turnover and participation in training programmes, all of the papers collected in this volume focus on models of the labour market. The main methodological points, however, are more general and apply to such diverse areas as demography, life science analysis and training evaluation, to name only a few, potential avenues of application. The book contains important methodological contributions to the emerging field of longitudinal analysis and is of interest to a wide range of social scientists.

This review is from: Longitudinal Analysis of Labor Market Data (Econometric Society Monographs) (Paperback)
I am a labor economist working with huge amounts of data building complex time series analysis models. One of the more vexing problems to solve is dealing with exogenous impacts on labor market trends. With the change of administration (Obama 2009) there will be significant monetary policy interventions that will have a large impact on the labor market. The Heckman & Robb chapters on evaluating the impact of interventions is an excellent treatment complete enough from me to build from. For that section alone I would give the book a 5.
