Modern American capitalism is producing a vast population of under-employed and unemployed yet highly educated people. Gary Roth provides a meticulously researched dissection of this phenomenon.' - Steve Fraser, author of 'Class Matters: The Strange Career of an American Delusion' 'A fascinating analysis that plots the distance between what we think we know about education and what the reality actually is. Cuts through the cloudiness of our long-held illusions.' - Alfred Lubrano, author of 'Limbo: Blue Collar Roots, White Collar Dreams'

The dream of social mobility is dying. Where previous generations where expected to surpass their parents' level of economic success, prospects for today's graduates are increasingly bleak. We live in a world with too many graduates fighting for too few graduate jobs; where Deliveroo drivers have PhDs. Whats the point in a university education in a world without enough jobs? Roth writes a sharp critique of the utility of a degree and the functioning of higher education, drawing on his experience as a higher education administrator.
