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.

评分虽然说这是一本经济学罗曼史，但我觉得他更加是希望用一种故事的、区别于其他书本的方式去解释经济学的世界。以劳拉作为一个普通人的视角，以萨姆作为一个经济学的视角来解释经济学现象。随着两人一次又一次的辩论，关系也变得微妙，更亲近了些。爱情不是这本书的主线，经济学...
评分看《罗辑思维》的时候，罗胖推荐了这本书。原来这是本小说，主线居然是劳拉和萨姆的相知相爱，而贯穿始终的是劳拉和萨姆的争论，劳拉是一个充满同情心的英语老师，而萨姆是一个经济学老师。简单有趣，虽然故事比不上纯小说，但是作为经济学读物已经够了。 先来一个问题：世界...
