Summary
"In early modern England, while moralists railed against the theater as wasteful and depraved and inflation whittled away at the value of wages, people attended the theater in droves. Literary critics have often wondered why, and in On Demand, David J. Baker draws on recent economic history and theory to provide an overall account of consumer behavior that answers their queries."--BOOK JACKET.
