George A. Akerlof is University Professor at Georgetown University and the winner of the 2001 Nobel Prize.
Robert J. Shiller is Sterling Professor of Economics at Yale University, the winner of the 2013 Nobel Prize, and the author of the New York Times bestseller Irrational Exuberance (Princeton). Akerlof and Shiller are also the authors of Animal Spirits: How Human Psychology Drives the Economy, and Why It Matters for Global Capitalism (Princeton).
Ever since Adam Smith, the central teaching of economics has been that free markets provide us with material well-being, as if by an invisible hand. In Phishing for Phools, Nobel Prize–winning economists George Akerlof and Robert Shiller deliver a fundamental challenge to this insight, arguing that markets harm as well as help us. As long as there is profit to be made, sellers will systematically exploit our psychological weaknesses and our ignorance through manipulation and deception. Rather than being essentially benign and always creating the greater good, markets are inherently filled with tricks and traps and will “phish” us as “phools.”
Phishing for Phools therefore strikes a radically new direction in economics, based on the intuitive idea that markets both give and take away. Akerlof and Shiller bring this idea to life through dozens of stories that show how phishing affects everyone, in almost every walk of life. We spend our money up to the limit, and then worry about how to pay the next month’s bills. The financial system soars, then crashes. We are attracted, more than we know, by advertising. Our political system is distorted by money. We pay too much for gym memberships, cars, houses, and credit cards. Drug companies ingeniously market pharmaceuticals that do us little good, and sometimes are downright dangerous.
Phishing for Phools explores the central role of manipulation and deception in fascinating detail in each of these areas and many more. It thereby explains a paradox: why, at a time when we are better off than ever before in history, all too many of us are leading lives of quiet desperation. At the same time, the book tells stories of individuals who have stood against economic trickery—and how it can be reduced through greater knowledge, reform, and regulation.
当有问题的疫苗被曝光后,社会的恐慌比当年三鹿的三聚氰胺问题相比并不会差距过远。当然这个时候,官方的反应和表态似乎异常的相似,官媒认为疫苗并没有什么问题,就像当年的事情不了了之,入狱的人员如今莫名其妙地被减刑。是的,所有的这一切并不是什么奇怪的事情,毕竟我们...
評分在看这本书之前,我倾向的是《经济学通识》这类书中的经济学观点,既自由市场是有效的,反对政府过多的干预和监管。但这本书中提出了一个有力的驳斥——自由市场如果是完美的,就不仅不需要政府的干预和监管,也不需要经济学家来研究解决经济问题了。 自由市场是迄今为止最为有...
評分这本书名头满大的,两位诺贝尔经济学奖获得者写的,观点和案例都很经典。 但这本书2016年才出版,对于这个时间来讲,书中许多内容都已经成为大众共识了。 2000年以来,引进的书越来越多、越来越精。不看书的不会看这本,看书的应该很难从中发现新东西了。案例、观点都是耳熟能...

評分1.在自由市场中,只要人性有弱点,市场就会利用这些弱点。人们往往并不清楚自己真正需要什么,而这就是最大的弱点,这个弱点会被商家抓住,并加以充分利用。 2. 汽车销售中的手段 第一,客户心目中的理想车型大都是根据商业广告宣传所确定的,四轮驱动、倒车影像之类,那么推销...
