| Review | "Peter C. Smith presents a comprehensive introduction to the theory and practice underlying the use of formulae as a basis for funding public services. The book discusses the objectives of public finance systems, and the role of formulae funding within those systems, as well as introducing a general economic model with which to analyse the formula funding problem."--Jacket. |
