Manufacturing Jobs in the U.S.

By Noah Berlatsky

Book Overview

One of America's greatest strengths is its manufacturing know-how. Many companies, however, send jobs off shore to other countries. This causes a number of issues relating to employment, trade, and the county's economy. This book discusses whether there is a strong American workforce available for new manufacturing jobs, whether American youths are interested in manufacturing, and whether the United States can compete with overseas manufacturers.
