Publisher's Synopsis
This book puts various aspects of this debate over high pay under the spotlight. It looks at the role of shareholders in awarding executive pay, examines how pay data are produced and used, and asks whether Long-Term Incentive Plans have created unnecessary inflation of executive pay. It also looks at high pay in the public sector and in areas where government funding plays a major role. It also investigates the disparity in pay between men and women among very high earners.
