Reviews

'This book might have been published ten years ago, but we are reviewing it in this edition because it is even more relevant now than it was then... Given the importance of pensions in relation to social welfare, employment incentives, savings incentives, tax rates, and much else, it really is essential that the work of the Pensions Commission continues, and equally essential that this book is on its members' reading list.' -- Citizen's Income '... the book adds considerable value in providing simple economic models and numerical examples to illuminate the complexities of pensions and population ageing.' -- John Piggott, Australasian Journal on Ageing
