Since casinos are associated with unintended and often negative economic consequences, these factors are incorporated into the discussion. The book also shows how amenity benefits - for casinos, the benefit to consumers of closer proximity - enter the evaluation. Other topics include agent incentives and public decision making, conceptual clarifications about economic development, cost-benefit analysis, and net export multiplier models. Professor Grinols finds that, in considering all relevant factors, the social costs of casino gambling outweigh their social benefits. 606 $aGambling$zUnited States 606 $aGambling$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aGambling 615 0$aGambling$xEconomic aspects. 676 $a338.4/7795 700 $aGrinols$b Earl L.$f1951-$0125283 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910966125503321 996 $aGambling in America$94425785 997 $aUNINA
