AUTHOR

Mayer, Susan E.

SUMMARY

"The best new books on the family begin with 'established' facts and then show them to be false--or at least complicate. Susan Mayer began 'What Money Can't Buy: Family Income and Children's Life Chances' with the belief that poor children achieve less than other children primarily because their families lack money. To her surprise, her research convinced her that money alone does not buy material or psychological well-being for children. The personal characteristics of parents and the choices they make are more important."Mayer, Susan E. is the author of 'What Money Can't Buy Family Income and Children's Life Chances', published 1998 under ISBN 9780674587342 and ISBN 0674587340.
