Occupational regulation in the U.S. labor market is a growing phenomenon. As of 2008, nearly 40 percent of individuals in jobs had either a license or certification from some form of local, state, or federal government. Following up on the success of his previous volume, "Licensing Occupations: Ensuring Quality or Restricting Competition?", Morris M. Kleiner brings us a book that furthers our knowledge of the effects of occupational regulation by showing how varying stages of regulation impact those in the occupations, closely related occupational practitioners, and, ultimately, consumers through the quality and cost of services provided. The case studies Kleiner performs focus on seven occupations with varying levels of regulation. They are 1) interior designers, 2) mortgage brokers, 3) preschool teachers, 4) electricians, 5) plumbers, 6) dental hygienists, and 7) dentists.
