Counterfactuals and Causal Inference: Methods and Principles for Social Research (Analytical Methods for Social Research) Book

Did mandatory busing programs in the 1970s increase the school achievement of disadvantaged minority youth? Does obtaining a college degree increase an individual's labor market earnings?
