How has the washing machine changed the way we spend money? Using the washing of clothes as a microcosm of household economics Woersdorfer examines the evolution of technology and practice over a period of growing industrialization. This new evolutionary account of consumer behaviour marks a move towards a more individualistic approach to economics.
