The	'obvious'	answer	is	that	the	owner	has	a	monopoly,	but	if	that	were	the	whole	story,	there	would	also	be	a	monopoly	price	to

  Landsburg	book	The	Armchair	Economist	-	Economics	and	Everyday	Life,	Landsburg	takes	many	of	these	economic	theories	and	relates	them	to	everyday	type	scenarios	and	makes	them	…	There	were	even	classes	at	the	London	School	of	Economics,	and	a	humble	personal	appeal	to	the	director	of	that	institution	to	recommend	a	course	bearing	on
  the	flower	business.	Chapter	9	covers	the	Coase	Theorem	of	professor	Ronald	Coase.	In	his	theoretical	asides,	Landsburg	is	at	pains	to	emphasise	that	economics	should	measure	people's	overall	happiness,	not	merely	their	financial	welfare;	and	that	how	to	optimise	this	across	many	people	is	not	a	question	capable	of	a	scientific	answer.	One	says
  that	under	certain	circumstances	(for	a	more	precise	statement	you'd	better	read	the	book),	markets	reach	the	most	efficient	outcome	possible.	In	short,	this	is	a	fascinating,	infuriating	book.	The	underlying	theme	of	the	book,	as	Landsburg	states	on	the	first	page,	is	that	"[m]ost	of	economics	can	be	summarized	in	four	words:	People	respond	to
  incentives."	For	nearly	20	years,	The	Armchair	Economist	has	been	famous	among	economists	as	the	book	to	give	your	mother	when	she	wants	to	understand	what	you	think	about	all	day	---	and	famous	worldwide	for	its	clarity	and	its	sparkling	wit.	I	read	this	book	in	hopes	that	I	would	find	a	book	that	I	could	recommend	to	students,	friends,	and

Why	does	popcorn	cost	so	much	at	the	cinema?	Here’s	the	scoop:	This	is	a	great	way	to	make	learning	the	concepts	of	economics	more	tolerable.	If	you	come	to	it,
  as	I	did,	expecting	deep	insights	into	the	world	(rather	than	merely	the	mind	of	economists),	then	large	tracts	of	it	are	quite	absurd	-	so	the	prediction	of	economic	theory	about	my	enjoyment	of	the	book	held	up	pretty	well.	Landsburg	justifies	the	definition	of	"efficiency"	as	a	sum	of	payoffs	by	saying	that,	even	if	someone	loses	out	by	one	policy
  decision,	they	will	probably	gain	in	the	long	run	if	the	criterion	is	applied	consistently.	…	The	chapter	in	that	section	on	"Courtship	and	collusion"	examines	what	is	(A	consequence	of	it	would	seem	to	be	that	people	should	be	compelled	to	vote,	the	opposite	of	a	conclusion	reached	in	one	of	the	earlier	and	more	evangelical	chapters.).	He	notes	(p.104):
  "Confronted	with	a	policy	that	would	enrich	a	Rockefeller	by	$1,000	at	the	cost	of	$900	to	a	struggling	single	parent,	the	cost-benefit	criterion	recommends	acceptance"	(though	he	admits	that	even	economists	might	want	to	depart	from	strict	adherence	to	the	criterion	in	this	specific	case).	An	economics	professor's	sometimes	charming,	sometimes
  glib,	always	counterintuitive	guide	to	evaluating	the	small	anomalies	of	daily	life	in	a	free-market	society.	But	instead	of	focusing	on	the	workings	of	financial	markets,	international	trade,	and	other	topics	distant	from	the	experience	of	most	readers,	Landsburg	mines	the	details	of	daily	life	to	reveal	what	the	laws	of	economics	tell	us	about	ourselves.

So	In	spite	of	this,	there	are	many	astute	pieces	of	analysis	in	the	book,	so	it	is	valuable	for	more	than	just	the
  insight	it	gives	into	the	thinking	of	economists.	Economics	is	a	fascinating	school	of	thought	that	is	based	on	a	lot	of	sociological	hypotheticals.
