The Itching Palm: A Study Of The Habit Of Tipping In America is a book written by William Rufus Scott in 1916. The book explores the practice of tipping in America, which was a relatively new phenomenon at the time. Scott examines the history and social implications of tipping, as well as its economic impact on industries such as hospitality and transportation. He also discusses the psychology behind tipping, including the desire for social status and the fear of social ostracism. The book is a fascinating look at a cultural phenomenon that has become ubiquitous in American society. It provides insight into the origins and evolution of tipping, as well as its role in shaping American social norms and values. The Itching Palm is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of American culture and society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
