Steven Landsburg's writings are living proof that economics need not be "the dismal science." Readers of The Armchair Economist and his columns in Slate magazine know that he can make economics not only fun but fascinating, as he searches for the reasons behind the odd facts we face in our daily lives. In More Sex Is Safer Sex, he brings his witty and razor-sharp analysis to the many ways that our individually rational decisions can combine into some truly weird collective results -- and he proposes hilarious and serious ways to fix just about everything.

When you stand up at the ballpark in order to see better, you make a rational decision. When everyone else does it too, the results, of course, are lousy. But this is just the tip of the iceberg of individual sanity and collective madness. Did you know that some people may actually increase the spread of sexually transmitted diseases when they avoid casual sex? Do you know why tall people earn more money than shorter competitors? (Hint: it isn't just unfair, unconscious prejudice.) Do you know why it makes no sense for you to give charitable donations to more than one organization?

Landsburg's solutions to the many ways that modern life is unfair or inefficient are both jaw-dropping and maddeningly defensible. We should encourage people to cut in line at water fountains on hot days. We should let firefighters keep any property they rescue from burning houses. We should encourage more people to act like Scrooge, because misers are just as generous as philanthropists.

Best of all are Landsburg's commonsense solutions to the political problems that plague our democracy. We should charge penalties to jurors if they convict a felon who is later exonerated. We should let everyone vote in two congressional districts: their own, and any other one of their choice. While we're at it, we should redraw the districts according to the alphabetical lists of all voters, rather than by geography. We should pay FDA commissioners with shares of pharmaceutical company stocks, and pay our president with a diversified portfolio of real estate from across the country.

Why do parents of sons stay married more often than parents who have only daughters? Why does early motherhood not only correlate with lower income, but actually cause it? Why do we execute murderers but not the authors of vicious computer viruses? The lesson of this fascinating, fun, and endlessly provocative book is twofold: many apparently very odd behaviors have logical explanations, and many apparently logical behaviors make no sense whatsoever.

后现代还存在幸生活保守的人,这大概是以前历次思想解放后残余下来的顽固分子,这本书大概是为了彻底将他们铲除,理由是:幸开放可以延缓艾滋病的传播! 作者很天真的认为,一个幸保守的人多与其他人交媾几次,那么至少带来2方面的好处:1. 被交媾的人感染艾滋病的机会降低;2...

这本书最重要的价值在于启发人从不同角度思考问题,尤其是“像经济学家那样思考”。在求解一个问题的过程中,演绎式思维只是很小的一部分,主要用于“像专家一样实践”。而要做到“像外行一样思考”(这两句话出自金出武雄的《像外行一样思考,像专家一样实践》),则需要归纳...

饱吹饿唱…… 中国人尤其北京人是爱胡扯的,或者叫做,侃大山。 看完了这本书我发现,这个美国鬼子也爱胡扯,简称鬼扯…… 奇妙的在于,他懂经济学,而且懂得比一般人多 所以,出现了钱来衡量人命,用成本收益来探讨呼吸机保险。 椎名高志画了一个四格,一个富翁对美女说...

持有嚴格性保守觀點的人如果采取稍許更開放一點的態度,便可減少prostitute市場需求,從而延緩艾滋病的傳播。堅守某一嚴格教條的人如果采納稍微顛覆一點的智慧,也許反迴增加效率,增強正效果。然而徹底的顛覆如同徹底的性享樂主義一樣,會造成災難性的後果。

嗬嗬,這本書挺有意思的!剛看書名以為是一本性學書籍,其實是一本純經濟學讀物。英文原版被我從孔夫子舊書店買到瞭,不貴。再買一個中文譯本,對照著看看,挺有意思!
