在读这本书之前,我是一只经济学“死鸟”——对经济学概念一无所知不说,还甚是轻视经济学。经济学,是当今中国十分火热的一个名词,仿佛一个人学了经济,他就开始发出金子般的光芒——一身的铜臭气,我所不齿也。可以说这本书把我从一只“死鸟”逐渐地变成“菜鸟”。 本书开...

The fourth edition of Basic Economics is both expanded and updated. A new chapter on the history of economics itself has been added, and the implications of that history examined. A new section on the special role of corporations in the economy has been added to the chapter on government and big business, among other additions throughout the book. Basic Economics , which has now been translated into six foreign languages, has grown so much that a large of amount of material in the back of the book in previous editions has now been put on-line instead, so that the book itself and its price will not have to expand. The central idea of Basic Economics , however remains the same: that the fundamental facts and principles of economics do not require jargon, graphs or equations, and can be learned in a relaxed and even enjoyable way.
更喜欢同作者的《economics: facts and fallacies》。篇幅更短小,行文更流畅,举例更加生动。两本书有一定的重合度,然而这本书对我来说太沉重了--正符合它的物理属性。
评分Nobody does a better job than Sowell at taking apart economic policies that're based on good desires but with disastrous consequences. Not a single formula but full of reason and logic.
