“Job Shock” presents a post-pandemic analysis of the future of the U.S. labor market over the coming decade. It reviews both long-term and short-term problems and solutions to them that are now under way across the United States. “Job Shock’s” premise is that America’s students and workers are as much in need of knowledge injections as they are of vaccine injections against COVID-19.
