- AdilZtn 4y agoI've read the Wikipedia page, that's insightful! I'll read the book, thank you.
- stainforth 4y agoAre there similar characteristics to be used or applied from the concept of induced demand (I suppose the traffic filling extra lanes example) with Parkinson's law?
- readthenotes1 4y agoNot sure it's the same? Parkinson talks about purposefully (whether conscious or not) generating increased work whereas I thought induced demand was mostly harvesting latent demand. But I'm neither an economist nor traffic engineer --tell me more!
