Sommario/riassunto

Based on the biographies of 350 men and women, who might have been considered 'destined for success' at the start of their secondary schooling, this book maps out the educational pathways they took. It analyses their subsequent achievements and entry into employment and compares them with their parents, with one another, and with their generation.
