具体描述
A love story that embraces the business and economic issues of the day? The Invisible Heart takes a provocative look at business, economics, and regulation through the eyes of Sam Gordon and Laura Silver, teachers at the exclusive Edwards School in Washington, D.C. Sam lives and breathes capitalism. He thinks that most government regulation is unnecessary or even harmful. He believes that success in business is a virtue. He believes that our humanity flourishes under economic freedom. Laura prefers Wordsworth to the Wall Street Journal . Where Sam sees victors, she sees victims. She wants the government to protect consumers and workers from the excesses of Sam's beloved marketplace. While Sam and Laura argue about how to make the world a better place, a parallel story unfolds across town. Erica Baldwin, the crusading head of a government watchdog agency, tries to bring Charles Krauss, a ruthless CEO, to justice. How are these two dramas connected? Why is Sam under threat of dismissal? Will Erica Baldwin find the evidence she needs? Can Laura love a man with an Adam Smith poster on his wall? The answers in The Invisible Heart give the reader a richer appreciation for how business and the marketplace transform our lives.

评分人物间的对话是本书的亮点，思维的碰撞、不断质疑、不断妙答、加之巨大知识量以及将经济学知识恰如其分地融入生活，令人如饮甘露，不仅如此，对经济现象的解释也很有现实意思。不足的是，作为一部小说，可能情节略显单薄。

评分sample: 在早班车的地铁里，人空但无座位，有年近6旬的长者人要求某年轻女子让座（非老弱病残位），被拒，遂遭其指责“无教无养失公德”，女子退去，旁人缄默，车过三站余，长者仍愤愤不绝其口，并邀众议，无果，复愤。 ——————————————————————————...
