John Kenneth "Ken" Galbraith was a Canadian-American economist. He was a Keynesian and an institutionalist, a leading proponent of 20th-century American liberalism. His books on economic topics were bestsellers from the 1950s through the 2000s and he filled the role of public intellectual from the '50s to the 1970s on matters of economics.
Galbraith was a prolific author who produced four dozen books and over a thousand articles on various subjects. Among his most famous works was a popular trilogy on economics, American Capitalism (1952), The Affluent Society (1958), and The New Industrial State (1967). He taught at Harvard University for many years. Galbraith was active in Democratic Party politics, serving in the administrations of Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry S. Truman, John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson; he served as United States Ambassador to India under Kennedy. Due to his prodigious literary output he was arguably the best known economist in the world during his lifetime[1] and was one of a select few people to be awarded the Medal of Freedom, in 1946, and the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2000, for services to economics.
The Affluent Society is a 1958 book by Harvard economist John Kenneth Galbraith. The book sought to clearly outline the manner in which the post-World War II America was becoming wealthy in the private sector but remained poor in the public sector, lacking social and physical infrastructure, and perpetuating income disparities. The book sparked much public discussion at the time, and it is widely remembered for Galbraith's popularizing of the term "conventional wisdom".
This is the 2nd edition published in 1969.
加尔布雷斯的《富裕社会》。鉴于时间有限,而图书无限,本想仅看看序言翻翻书中深得我心的几个章节即罢,难能可贵的是此书译文文字竟是真“中文”,也就忍不住多读几章。译文全然与往日翻看的西方经济学译著的语言风格不一般。不求浮华辞藻、惊人语句,但求语句流畅、最大限...
评分加尔布雷思这个名字我从两处听到,一是去年在伦敦培训时,讲师在PPT里引用了他的一句话“所有的模型都是错的,但都一定有些用”,二是查理芒格推荐了这本书。再一看这本书写作的时间是美国的80年代,那是美国历史上最伟大的总统罗纳德里根使这个国家再创辉煌的时代。我试图去理...

评分读加尔布雷斯《丰裕社会》 早就听说过一句话:一个经济学科的学生,如果没有读过加尔布雷斯的《丰裕社会》,那么他的经济学知识是不完整的。我一直疑心这不过又是一句言过其实的推销用语,不过在读完《丰裕社会》以后,我觉得这句话确实是有道理的。这倒不是说《丰裕社会》有...
评分It is a far ,far better thing to have a firm anchor in nonsense than to put out on the troubled seas of thought.怎么理解这句?
他给由贫穷到富裕的社会转型提供了一个经济学注解,他关于生产---需求之间的互动关系仍然发人深省,他指出了人们思想和道德上的顽固,他寄希望的新兴阶级在现实中的蓬勃发展,这些都使得这本书值得一看。
