The Case against Education pdf epub mobi 著者簡介

I'm Bryan Caplan, Professor of Economics at George Mason University and blogger for EconLog. I am the author of The Myth of the Rational Voter, named "the best political book of the year" by the New York Times, Selfish Reasons to Have More Kids, and The Case Against Education. I am currently colloborating with *Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal*’s Zach Weinersmith on All Roads Lead to Open Borders, a non-fiction graphic novel on the philosophy and social science of immigration, and writing a new book, Poverty: Who To Blame. I've published in the New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, The Atlantic, American Economic Review, Economic Journal, Journal of Law and Economics, and Intelligence, and appeared on ABC, Fox News, MSNBC, and C-SPAN. An openly nerdy man who loves role-playing games and graphic novels, I live in Oakton, Virginia, with my wife and four kids.


The Case against Education pdf epub mobi 圖書描述

Despite being immensely popular--and immensely lucrative—education is grossly overrated. In this explosive book, Bryan Caplan argues that the primary function of education is not to enhance students' skill but to certify their intelligence, work ethic, and conformity—in other words, to signal the qualities of a good employee. Learn why students hunt for easy As and casually forget most of what they learn after the final exam, why decades of growing access to education have not resulted in better jobs for the average worker but instead in runaway credential inflation, how employers reward workers for costly schooling they rarely if ever use, and why cutting education spending is the best remedy.

Caplan draws on the latest social science to show how the labor market values grades over knowledge, and why the more education your rivals have, the more you need to impress employers. He explains why graduation is our society's top conformity signal, and why even the most useless degrees can certify employability. He advocates two major policy responses. The first is educational austerity. Government needs to sharply cut education funding to curb this wasteful rat race. The second is more vocational education, because practical skills are more socially valuable than teaching students how to outshine their peers.

Romantic notions about education being "good for the soul" must yield to careful research and common sense — The Case against Education points the way. (less)

trolling with bountiful quantitative studies lol. i m convinced. i especially like the part where he confessed that some data he used r practically guesswork. zero chance of the policies proposed in the book will be implemented though. will read up all his works.

評分

剛看的時候感覺很爽,本身我也不是個好學生,還嫌自己在學校玩兒少瞭,真不該上那些莫名其妙的課。看到後來其實也捫心自問,既然大傢應該注重真正的能力而不是學曆,那麼我真正的能力究竟如何呢?我在對現行教育製度嗤之以鼻的同時,真的沒有占它一點好處嗎?真的就沒有學曆比我低,而能力遠大於我的人嗎?

評分

2.5?

評分

Bryan Caplan是一個論證非主流觀點的天纔,不管你同不同意他的結論,他的寫作讀起來暢快無比

評分

贊同思考、再思考教育之“用”,但對書中給齣的標準,不太認同,經濟學傢的視角太冷峻瞭些。
