Kuh, Diana; Head, Fenny; Hardy, Rebecca; Wadsworth, Michael
British Journal of Sociology of Education, v18 n3 p385-405 Sep 1997
Observes that research on the influence of education on adult earnings hasn't focused on differences between women. Looks at British women born immediately after World War Two. Shows that women who were able to take advantage of expanded educational opportunities and achieve high educational qualifications earned significantly more than less educated females. (DSK)
