On December 5, 2004, the still-developing blogosphere took one of its biggest steps toward mainstream credibility, as Nobel Prize–winning economist Gary S. Becker and renowned jurist and legal scholar Richard A. Posner announced the formation of the Becker-Posner Blog.
In no time, the blog had established a wide readership and reputation as a reliable source of lively, thought-provoking commentary on current events, its pithy and profound weekly essays highlighting the value of economic reasoning when applied to unexpected topics. Uncommon Sense gathers the most important and innovative entries from the blog, arranged by topic, along with updates and even reconsiderations when subsequent events have shed new light on a question. Whether it’s Posner making the economic case for the legalization of gay marriage, Becker arguing in favor of the sale of human organs for transplant, or even the pair of scholars vigorously disagreeing about the utility of collective punishment, the writing is always clear, the interplay energetic, and the resulting discussion deeply informed and intellectually substantial.
To have a single thinker of the stature of a Becker or Posner addressing questions of this nature would make for fascinating reading; to have both, writing and responding to each other, is an exceptionally rare treat. With Uncommon Sense , they invite the adventurous reader to join them on a whirlwind intellectual journey. All they ask is that you leave your preconceptions behind.

評分先放個最終評語:這本書是絕對值得一看的。 好瞭,來說說我的糾結。 這本書讀得我很糾結。 一是因為涉及的話題非常寬,單看目錄就知道瞭:“婚姻、性彆、産權保護、法案禁令、求職、全球變暖、恐怖主義……”而這還隻是大標題;二是因為有不少專業用語(這難倒瞭部分非專業人...
評分前麵的章節還行,後麵的就沒意思瞭。 法學傢希望把一切都用法律約束起來,經濟學傢希望用經濟學解釋一切,其實,他們都錯瞭。無論是經濟學還是法學都隻是社會科學的一部分,都不能完全解釋這個社會。所以他們的解釋都足夠狹隘。 想要解釋這個社會,必須要綜閤起所...
