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.

评分这本书太棒了!!在我们的社会上,有两种主流的观点,一种是经济学的,另一种是法学的,本书就已有着两种观点的男女主角的爱情故事为主线,通过之间的辩论,让读者对一些现存的社会问题进行反思.其实无论两种观点没有对错之分,只是看事情的角度不同而已.强烈推荐这本书,可以让读者有反...
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。
