Recenzii

'Mark McGillivray conducts a very useful and sobering econometric exercise that allows him to compute the predictive value of a whole host of well-being indicators for the part of (composite) well-being not explained by per capita income...' - Arjan Verschoor, Journal of Development Studies
'Remarkable not just for tackling difficult conceptual and methodological issues but for [its] content, scope and coverage which touches upon most, if not all, of the central topics and emerging issues in well-being research highly recommended' - David A. Clark, Journal of Human Development
