ISBN: 9780803271791 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 446 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Organized baseball has survived its share of difficult times, and never was the state of the game more imperiled than during the Great Depression. Or was it? Remarkably, during the economic upheavals of the Depression none of the sixteen Major League Baseball teams folded or moved. In this economist s look at the sport as a business between 1929 and 1941, David George Surdam argues that although it was a very tough decade for baseball, the downturn didn t happen immediately.

The Postwar Yankees: Baseball's Golden Age Revisited
ISBN: 9780803271784 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 440 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Yankees and New York baseball entered a golden age between 1949 and 1964, a period during which the city was represented in all but one World Series. While the Yankees dominated, however, the years were not so golden for the rest of baseball.
In The Postwar Yankees David George Surdam deconstructs this idyllic period to show that while the Yankees piled on pennants and World Series titles through the 1950s, overall Major League Baseball attendance consistently declined and gate-revenue disparity widened through the mid-1950s. Contrary to popular belief, the era was already...

The Ball Game Biz: An Introduction to the Economics of Professional Team Sports
ISBN: 9780786460571 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Professional sports leagues are cartels, and economists are keenly interested in how cartels behave. But their work is cut out for them, as the many player statistics available to the fan are not matched by an abundance of team and league financial information that would enable economists to test theories regarding labor economics. So they use a combination of economic theory, simple probability and statistical concepts to answer questions about the effects of free agency on competitive balance, for instance, or the causes of rising ticket prices and the impact of a new stadium on local...

Century of the Leisured Masses: Entertainment and the Transformation of Twentieth-Century America
ISBN: 9780190211578 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. American living standards improved considerably between 1900 and 2000. While most observers focus on gains in per-capita income as a measure of economic well-being, economists have used other measures of well-being: height, weight, and longevity. The increased amount of leisure time per week and across people's lifetimes, however, has been an unsung aspect of the improved standard of living in America. In Century of the Leisured Masses, David George Surdam explores the growing presence of leisure activities in Americans' lives and how this development came out throughout the...
