(EDT); Romano, Donato (EDT), ISBN 0792381432, ISBN-13 9780792381433, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US The contingent valuation method (CVM) is a nonmarket technique that seeks to value environmental and other goods and services by asking individuals about their personal values using statistical survey methods. Fourteen contributions attempt to prove the usefulness of stated- preference methods such as CVM over more traditional revealed-preference methods. After treatments of conceptual issues, applications of the model are explored in relations to such topics as the values of hunting, birdwatching, wildlife preservation, reduction in cancer risks, rural landscapes, and access to architectural and visual arts.
