Happy Couples’ Division of Daily Chores

There is a new book published on chores division for couples:

Spousonomics: Using economics to master love, marriage and dirty dishes by Paula Szuchman and Jenny Anderson

It takes economics at home and basically says that couples should not try to split chores equally. You should do what you are “relatively better” at, taking in consideration the principle of comparative advantage. This means that if you are good at washing dishes more quickly and efficiently, than that is what you should do and let your spouse take on laundry, for example.
