THE UNDERCOVER ECONOMIST showed how ordinary economics explained everyday curiosities, such as the price of a cup of coffee and the traffic jam on the way to the supermarket. THE LOGIC OF LIFE shows how the new economics of rational choice theory explains much, much more. Drug addicts and teenage muggers can be rational. Suburban sprawl and inner city decay are rational. Endless meetings at the office and the injustices of working life? Rational. Economics explains why your boss is overpaid, whether we should build more prisons, and whether a city like New Orleans can recover from disaster. THE LOGIC OF LIFE introduces you to engaging stories and characters linked together in a bold narrative sweep. The book starts with the most intimate decisions - to have sex, to take drugs, to lead an honest life - then zooms out to discuss the logic of the family, of neighbourhoods, large corporations, cities themselves. This is the new economics of everything you never thought was economics, and it will help you see the world in a new way.
英国著名经济学家,曾以<卧底经济学>一书在中国走红.
书中的很多关于历史方面的很有意思,就好像英国的光荣革命,让人有恍然大悟之感.作者态度很严肃,比<卧底经济学>进步了.
评分太有趣了,前几天女同事们还在感叹怎么身边嫁不出去的姑娘总比光棍男生多?这下我知道了,还真玄妙呀!原来美国也是这样的,曼哈顿永远驻留一批待嫁女,她们的想法还真实际。有空看看这书吧,很好。真是答疑解惑。
