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 in both academic journals and in such popular media as the Wall Street Journal, Forbes magazine, and Fortune, and he writes a syndicated column that appears in newspapers across the country.
This much revised and reorganized edition of Intellectuals and Society is more than half again larger than the first edition. Four new chapters have been added on intellectuals and race, including a chapter on race and intelligence.
These new chapters show the radically different views of race prevailing among the intelligentsia at the beginning of the twentieth century and at the end-- and yet how each of these opposite views of race had the same dogmatic quality and the same refusal to countenance differing opinions among their contemporaries, much less engage dissenting opinions in serious debate. Moreover, each of these very different views of race produced flourishes of rhetoric and travesties of logic, leading to dire social consequences, though of very different sorts in the two eras.
Other additions to this edition include a critique of John Rawls' conception or justice and a re-examination of the so-called "trickle-down theory" behind "tax cuts for the rich." There are other revisions, from the preface to the final chapter, the latter being extensively rewritten to bring together and highlight the themes of the other chapters, and to make unmistakably clear what Intellectuals and Society is, and is not, seeking to do.

評分几年前,我第一次读到索维尔的经济学普及著作《诡辩与真相》(上海译文出版社2011年版),就被他清晰的思路、极简的论述方式和丰富的案例所吸引,经济学著作有很多,高明的更多。但在这本书之前,像我这类非专业人士,却没有读到哪一本能让我有一种“我懂了”感觉的书。所...
評分这本书批判的那些公知,他们并没有真正的、可验证的、可靠的能够用来造福社会、引导大众走向更好局面的知识。他们根本就没有科学的方法,或是根本就不在乎科学的方法,不在乎发现因果的正确路线,而站在道德的制高点,通过自己以别的方式积累起来的“权威”,跨出自己专业的领...
評分 評分托马斯•索维尔在《知识分子与社会》中开宗名义,对于“知识分子”这一群体的研究首先排除掉了两种人,一种是“弗里德曼”类型的,这一点很容易理解,同为信奉自由市场的经济学家,他的批判意识和批评方法必定首先基于他自身的知识结构与谱系,绝不会做出“背叛师门”的行为...
