The Case against Education: Why the Education System Is a Waste of Time and Money

The Case Against Education by Bryan Caplan is a thought-provoking book that challenges the conventional wisdom on education.

Caplan argues that the primary function of education is not to enhance students' skills but to certify their intelligence, work ethic, and conformity.

He draws on the latest social science research to show how the labor market values grades over knowledge and why even the most useless degrees can certify employability.

The book advocates for educational austerity and more vocational education to address the wasteful rat race in education.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the true purpose of education and how it impacts the job market.
