Product Description
by Hamermesh (Author)
Time is the ultimate scarce resource and thus quintessentially a topic for economics, the study of scarcity. Starting with the observation that time is increasingly valuable given competing demands as we have more things we can buy and do, Spending Time provides engaging insights into how people use their time and what determines their decisions about spending their time.
