Steven D. Levitt is a professor of economics at the University of Chicago and the recipient of the John Bates Clark medal, awarded to the most influential economist under the age of forty.
The New York Times best-selling Freakonomics was a worldwide sensation, selling over four million copies in thirty-five languages and changing the way we look at the world. Now, Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner return with SuperFreakonomics, and fans and newcomers alike will find that the freakquel is even bolder, funnier, and more surprising than the first. Four years in the making, SuperFreakonomics asks not only the tough questions, but the unexpected ones: What's more dangerous, driving drunk or walking drunk? Why is chemotherapy prescribed so often if it's so ineffective? Can a sex change boost your salary? SuperFreakonomics challenges the way we think all over again, exploring the hidden side of everything with such questions as: How is a street prostitute like a department-store Santa? Why are doctors so bad at washing their hands? How much good do car seats do? What's the best way to catch a terrorist? Did TV cause a rise in crime? What do hurricanes, heart attacks, and highway deaths have in common? Are people hard-wired for altruism or selfishness? Can eating kangaroo save the planet? Which adds more value: a pimp or a Realtor? Levitt and Dubner mix smart thinking and great storytelling like no one else, whether investigating a solution to global warming or explaining why the price of oral sex has fallen so drastically. By examining how people respond to incentives, they show the world for what it really is – good, bad, ugly, and, in the final analysis, super freaky. Freakonomics has been imitated many times over – but only now, with SuperFreakonomics, has it met its match.
谁说这本书没有主题,这本书归根到底是一本研究人自身的书。作者所有的研究主线其实都是围绕着一个主题:在动机的驱使下,人类行为所做出的反应。
评分书不错,就是里面的专家导读太倒胃口,完全没有用,出版社用来凑字的吧。。。 这都是什么专家写的啊,疑惑
评分《超爆魔鬼经济学》这本书似乎讲的不是严格意义上的经济学,而是属于“经济分析”,很多似乎看上去和经济学没有关系的事情,原来居然是可以用经济学来解释的。导致大多数男女薪水差异的主要原因在于:女性追求高薪的愿望不足?为什么世界上大部分顶级运动员都出生在1月-3...
评分书是2012年买的,2016年5月才抽出时间看。可见老婆让我少买书从某种程度上是对的,买的没有及时看;与此相对,她说的也是不对的,本书没有再次加印,如果我当时没买,现在看到它的机会也会少很多。看,这就是有更多角度思考问题带来的不同视角,我认为书里讲的就是这个问题。案...
评分作者的思路其实还是那么简单,将两件看似毫不相干的事放在一起,由于它们有某种程度上的类似,比如说变化趋势,然后经过一些看似符合常理的分析,使这两件事物发生关系,从而得到看似荒谬,听起来却十分有道理的结论。我不得不承认从某种意义上讲,这的确可以锻炼人的思维,以...
强烈建议全国高中生立刻停止学习英语,语文和政治,转而学习这本书。
评分lmao
评分没有freakonomics好看...
评分没有第一本好,但也许是因为第一本是第一本的缘故,精神和思考方式是一致的。
