It will be of interest to researchers working on young people's transition from the parental home, but it should also be read by anyone who is concerned with the larger question of how welfare states shape the life course.' Professor Richard Breen, European University Institute, Italy 'The high value of this book is based on three accumulative achievements. The topic: for young people's home-leaving is a core element in family formation and its relation with their transition to employment. The approach: which stresses the decisive influence of public policies on timing and costs of leaving home. The analytic quality: the clarity of the arguments as well as the adequate investigation method lead to solid and convincing results.' Luis Garrido, CatedrA!tico de SociologA a, UNED, Madrid '...the book would provide the greatest interest to academics and students of sociology, people living in France and Spain, and anyone wishing to understand more about economics, employment, education, welfare, and housing assistance in these two countries.'
