From one of America's best-known economists, the one book anyone who wants to understand the economy needs to read. At last there is a citizen's guide to the economy, written by an economist who uses plain English. No jargon, no graphs, no equations. Yet this is a comprehensive survey, covering everything from rent control and the rise and fall of businesses to the international balance of payments. The purpose of Basic Economics is to enable people without any economic training to understand the way the economy functions-not only the American economy, but other economies around the world. Some of the clearest demonstrations of the role of prices, for example, come from economies in which prices are not allowed to function-with consequences which show just what those functions are and what happens when they are lacking. In the end, this is not a book from which to cram facts, but one from which to gain an understanding of the economy that will enable you to form your own conclusions on the basis of tested principles, rather than on the basis of emotion or rhetoric. That is the goal of the journey, but you should also enjoy the trip along the way.

評分 評分限流這件事有很多看法,比如有人會覺得限流是件好事,畢竟通常限流之後平颱會引導流量給“小透明”,在某些層麵上限流也是“反對大V流量壟斷”的一種“善政”。 但是大V的存在是一種壟斷麼?判斷壟斷與否的條件是市場占有率麼? 想一想就會明白,如果壟斷的評價指標是市場占有...
