Which is more dangerous, a gun or a swimming pool? What do schoolteachers and sumo wrestlers have in common? Why do drug dealers still live with their moms? How much do parents really matter? How did the legalization of abortion affect the rate of violent crime? These may not sound like typical questions for an econo-mist to ask. But Steven D. Levitt is not a typical economist. He is a much-heralded scholar who studies the riddles of everyday life—from cheating and crime to sports and child-rearing—and whose conclusions turn conventional wisdom on its head. Freakonomics is a groundbreaking collaboration between Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner, an award-winning author and journalist. They usually begin with a mountain of data and a simple question. Some of these questions concern life-and-death issues; others have an admittedly freakish quality. Thus the new field of study contained in this book: freakonomics. Through forceful storytelling and wry insight, Levitt and Dubner show that economics is, at root, the study of incentives—how people get what they want, or need, especially when other people want or need the same thing. In Freakonomics , they explore the hidden side of . . . well, everything. The inner workings of a crack gang. The truth about real-estate agents. The myths of campaign finance. The telltale marks of a cheating schoolteacher. The secrets of the Klu Klux Klan. What unites all these stories is a belief that the modern world, despite a great deal of complexity and downright deceit, is not impenetrable, is not unknowable, and—if the right questions are asked—is even more intriguing than we think. All it takes is a new way of looking. Freakonomics establishes this unconventional premise: If morality represents how we would like the world to work, then economics represents how it actually does work. It is true that readers of this book will be armed with enough riddles and stories to last a thousand cocktail parties. But Freakonomics can provide more than that. It will literally redefine the way we view the modern world.

看教育技术的趋势,去看纽约时报的畅销书排行榜最好。果然,今年的Blackboard(含被兼并的WebCT)用户会议上,主旨发言者是《魔鬼经济学》(Freakonomics)作者之一芝加哥大学经济教授Steven D. Levitt。我不是很肯定他的话题和远程教育有何相关,只是其生猛程度,和三闾大学欢...

魔由心生 人的动机决定了人的选择。 几年前,一个很久以前辞职的同事找到我,商量大家一起创业。刚好他手上有一笔业务,做完后,可用做启动的资金。开始大家都构想得很好,项目进展得很顺利,客户的款也付得爽快。终于有时间大家坐下来,讨论一些关于新公司的问题...

Freakonomics已经在纽约时报畅销书排行榜上待了46周。这本书现在也有了中文简体版,译名是《魔鬼经济学》。从原书名看,freakonomics=freak+economics,是作者自创的一个词汇,意思大概就是用economics的方法来研究一些 freak的现象,或者也可以理解成freak研究的经济学,因此...

昨天晚上开始读。因为昨晚没睡好,今天没精力做正事,下午索性把它读完,总共花了4小时的样子。 这本书是10年前的畅销书,在我书架上呆了也有七八年了。因为想找本易读又能启发思路的书才把它找了出来。 书总的来说还是很有趣。Levitt确实很有创造力,对常见的问题能够找到很...
