This volume is a cooperative venture to make generally available the results of intensive research and thought over many years at half a dozen leading university research centers. The conceptual and statistical analysis of the major general attributes of labor mobility by Philip M. Hauser provides an effective background for the interpretation of the subsequent essays. The principal findings of a series of pioneering studies are presented by Gladys L. Palmer, Charles A. Myers, and Dale Yoder. Impediments to labor mobility are discussed by Clark Kerr and important interpretations of certain crucial problems relating to the future flexibilty of the American economy are discussed. These considerations, and others, are summarized in challenging fashion by E. Wight Bakke.
