Reviews
Journal of Economic Literature
...The latest volume in a series providing a comprehensive review of research in public economics contains nine papers that address lacunae
in earlier volumes or revisit topics on which there has been substantial new research.
Journal of Economic Literature
...Both public-finance economists and those outside the field will find value in the fourth volume of the Handbook of Public Economics.
The chapters provide a thorough summary of research on policy-relevant topics including health care, Social Security, and welfare. They
also include a plethora of empirical estimates on critical parameter values, providing researchers venturing beyond their own area of
expertise a reliable (and eminently citable!) source for reasonable values. The individual chapters are self-contained and could easily
serve as supplements to core reading requirements in undergraduate or graduate courses. ...The rest of the volume features chapters on
generational accounting, tax incidence, local public goods, education, and welfare programs. The enduring relevance of these topics both
in academia and policy circles makes this volume of the Handbook of Public Economics a useful resource for economists and policy analysts
alike.
