OverviewThis book grew out of research funded by the Montana Department of Labor and Industry. This study will argue that the distinction between economic values and social values such as the quality of life is a misleading and dangerous distinction. There is nothing especially ethereal or spiritual or noneconomic about the quality of life (QOL). Similarly there is nothing especially material, practical or economic about job opportunities or money prices. Full Product DetailsAuthor: Thomas M.
