Productivity and Value takes a critical look at the generic concepts of productivity as they are used in most of the conventional literature. In this compelling book, the author challenges the concept of total-factor productivity as a valid indicator of successes or failures in economic policy and in the economy generally.

Such a measure, he claims, will be more realistic and will also come closer to being understood by the public.
