這麼一本流水帳毫無原創觀點,作傢好意思稱自己是曆史學傢嗎
評分對於我這樣一過麻瓜而言,此書真能讓人順藤摸瓜看到曆史演變。Ferguson文字的幽默也為此書錦上添花。
評分看的第三本鳥叔。還是一如既往的流暢。

評分金融入門非常棒。雖然花邊新聞多到離譜,本人明星化傾嚮嚴重,二手拼湊資料多,原創性少,但文筆確實好,讓人讀那麼悶的東西卻能保持興緻,真不簡單。基本概念和宏大曆史敘事均有兼顧,入門佳作。
Niall Ferguson is Herzog Professor of Financial History at the Stern School of Business, New York University. He is also a Senior Research Fellow of Jesus College, Oxford, and a Senior Fellow of the Hoover Institution, Stanford University. His books for Penguin include The Pity of War, The Cash Nexus, Empire: How Britain Made the Modern World and War of the World.
Bread, cash, dosh, dough, loot: Call it what you like, it matters. To Christians, love of it is the root of all evil. To generals, it’s the sinews of war. To revolutionaries, it’s the chains of labour. But in The Ascent of Money, Niall Ferguson shows that finance is in fact the foundation of human progress. What’s more, he reveals financial history as the essential back-story behind all history.
The Ascent of Money charts the evolution of credit and debt as important as any technological innovation in the rise of civilization, from ancient Babylon to the silver mines of Bolivia. Banks provided the material basis for the splendours of the Italian Renaissance, while the bond market was the decisive factor in conflicts from the Seven Years’ War to the American Civil War.
With the clarity and verve for which he is famed, Niall Ferguson explains why the origins of the French Revolution lie in a stock market bubble caused by a convicted Scots murderer. He shows in The Ascent of Money how financial failure turned Argentina from the world’s sixth richest country into an inflation-ridden basket case – and how a financial revolution is propelling the world’s most populous country from poverty to power in a single generation.
Yet the most important lesson of the financial history is that sooner or later every bubble bursts – sooner or later the bearish sellers outnumber the bullish buyers – sooner or later greed flips into fear. And that’s why, whether you’re scraping by or rolling in it, there’s never been a better time to understand the ascent of money.
Niall Ferguson talks about The War of the World, his previous book, here.

货币是什么?有人说“货币就是货币的职能”(MONEY IS WHAT MONEY DOES);有人说金本位可靠而信用本位不可靠;有的则说要建立超级主权大国的货币。。。。。。而《货币崛起》这本书则隐匿的告诉我们一个答案:货币是基于国家能力的信用竞争选择。而金本位只是依赖于黄金的稀缺,...
評分作者挑选了自己觉得重要的事件,按话题来组织内容,分五章分别讨论了信用,债券,泡沫,住房,风险和Chimerica。本书并不是一般意义上系统的历史记录,所以副标题A Financial History of the World有些过大。前两章的很多材料都算得上是“新闻”,符合我对历史书的期待;后四章...
評分这本书里看到了很多人名, 1、美第奇家族居然是西西里黑帮企业的鼻祖,但是美第奇家族没有采用发明与意大利的复式记账法。第一套银行系统是发源于还未统一的意大利。 2、作者很尊重《货币战争》作者宋鸿兵,只是说罗斯柴尔德的神话仍在流传,宋就是一个流传作者(不考虑抄袭)...
評分翻译极为糟糕,译者不仅缺乏金融知识而且英语水平有限。在讲故事的部分译文还是可以看懂的,但是一旦遇到金融操作之类的细节这种读者最关注的部分,译者根本无法理解原文,更不要说作一个可读的翻译。所以如果你看这本书时觉得云里雾里,实在是正常的结果,大不必自卑觉得自己...
評分看到好多人对翻译问题横加指责。我觉得有失公允 确实有漏译和翻译的错误 但是本书翻译的亮点也有不少, 比如p163,“弱不禁火”翻译的就很好,原文为vulnable to fire,至少我觉得翻译的非常到位。 书没什么好评价的。只想说说本书主题之外的东西。 1850年德国就有了福利国家...
