Today, however, we have increasing inequality, not economic convergence. Technological advances are putting quality jobs out of reach for workers who lack the proper skills and training. In <i>Workforce Education</i>, William Bonvillian and Sanjay Sarma offer a roadmap for rebuilding America's working class. They argue that we need to train more workers more quickly, and they describe innovative methods of workforce education that are being developed across the country.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Bonvillian and Sarma make a clear and convincing case for the necessity and potential of this new path.
