Description

Explore new perspectives on the evolution of goods and services with this academic work from Edward Elgar Publishing. In this book, Steven Payson examines the vital role of quality measurement within the study of price indices, product innovation, and evolutionary change. This text provides a deep look into the debate between the user-value definition of quality and the producer-cost definition. Payson defends the user-value approach and introduces the Representative Good Approach (RGA). This new method allows for the measurement of quality over extended historical periods by analyzing historical documents. Whether you are studying econometrics or economic history, this book offers a fresh way to understand how products change over time. It is an essential resource for those looking to understand the mechanics of product innovation and the shifting nature of value in modern and historical economies.
