Thomas Sowell has taught economics at Cornell, UCLA, Amherst and other academic institutions, and his Basic Economics has been translated into six languages. He is currently a scholar in residence at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University. He has published both in academic journals and in such popular media as the Wall Street Journal, Forbes, and Fortune, and writes a syndicated column that appears in newspapers across the country.
In Economic Facts and Fallacies, Thomas Sowell exposes some of the most popular fallacies about economic issues in a lively manner that does not require any prior knowledge of economics. These fallacies include many beliefs widely disseminated in the media and by politicians, such as fallacies about urban problems, income differences, male-female economic differences, as well as economic fallacies about academia, about race, and about Third World countries.
Sowell shows that fallacies are not simply crazy ideas but in fact have a certain plausibility that gives them their staying power--and makes careful examination of their flaws both necessary and important.

評分謬誤並不僅僅是一些狂熱的觀念,它們常常富有“道理”而又看似邏輯嚴謹,隻不過是忽略瞭一些因素。謬誤的“頭頭是道”為自己贏得瞭政治上得的支持。如果這種政治支持足夠強大,並最終將這些錯誤的觀念上升為國傢政策或政府計劃時,謬誤所忽略的那些因素就會引發“難以預料...

圖書標籤: 經濟 經濟學 libertarianism ThomasSowell Economics 英文原版 economics 非虛構
我自己也算個自由市場主義者,不過這本書寫的真的不怎麼樣,同樣話題,不如看一課經濟學,雖然這個名字翻譯的也很kuso
評分Learn to Think twice. Keep thinking twice. Have a thing about "fallacies". 樹立的論述提供瞭更多的思考方法和思考角度,就點攻點是有意義的,但以點推及整個論點都是沒有可信度是錯誤的,因此書裏fallacies的列舉不代錶說的全部都是對的,或者說可靠的。
