Niemi explains the developments of the so-called \"female advantage\" and \"boy crisis\" in American higher education, setting them alongside socioeconomic and racial developments in women's and men's lives throughout the last 40 years. Exploring the relationship between higher education credentials and their utility in creating political, economic, and social success, \u003ci\u003eDegrees of Difference\u003c\/i\u003e identifies ways in which gender and academic achievement contribute to women's and men's power to shape their lives.
