The second book I'd recommend which really gets at both the educational and labor market stuff but actually more from looking at women I think you learn about men is Claudia Goldin's book Career and Family, which as I said I think Goldin is just absolutely the best in the business when it comes to looking at gender.

Why people recommend it
Career and Family by Claudia Dale Goldin is an economics book examining women's century-long journey toward equity, labor markets, and the persistent wage gap. The work received high praise across multiple podcast episodes. On The Ezra Klein Show, Richard Reeves recommended the publication, stating that despite its primary focus on women, readers learn a great deal about men, education, and labor market dynamics, while also praising the author as the absolute best in her field. Steve Levitt featured the text and its author on People I (Mostly) Admire, encouraging listeners to purchase and read the new release after discussing concepts like greedy work and gender equity in the workplace. Furthermore, Dean Spears referenced the book on The Jordan Harbinger Show while discussing demographic shifts and economic theories concerning the conflict women face between professional ambitions and family life. Throughout these discussions, hosts and guests emphasized the empirical rigor and clarity with which the Nobel-winning economist mapped out historical shifts in female employment, career sacrifices, and household economics over the past hundred years, framing it as essential reading for anyone seeking to understand modern economic and social structures.
