The core of this book is a general equilibrium theory of labor and marriage presented in Chapter 2, which provides the conceptual framework for the rest of the chapters. Two major implications of the theory are sex ratio effects and compensating differentials in marriage. The book demonstrates how a few core concepts, linked via economic analysis, help explain a multitude of findings based on statistical analyses of data from a wide variety of cultures. It is hoped that readers of this book will improve their understanding of how marriage works to help us design better economic and social policies as well as help people live better and happier lives, making the book of interest to not only economists but sociologists and anthropologists as well. 606 $aLabor economics 606 $aFamilies 606 $aFamilies?Social aspects 606 $aSociology 606 $aAnthropology 606 $aMicroeconomics 606 $aLabor Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W37000 606 $aFamily$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X27000 606 $aSociology, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22000 606 $aAnthropology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X12000 606 $aMicroeconomics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W31000 615 0$aLabor economics. 615 0$aFamilies. 615 0$aFamilies?Social aspects. 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aAnthropology. 615 0$aMicroeconomics. 615 14$aLabor Economics. 615 24$aFamily. 615 24$aSociology, general. 615 24$aAnthropology. 615 24$aMicroeconomics. 676 $a301 676 $a306.85 676 $a330 676 $a331 700 $aGrossbard$b Shoshana$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01061699 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298496603321 996 $aThe Marriage Motive: A Price Theory of Marriage$92519741 997 $aUNINA
