In the summer of 2003, the New York Times Magazine sent Stephen J. Dubner, an author and journalist, to write a profile of Steven D. Levitt, a heralded young economist at the University of Chicago. Levitt was not remotely interested in the things that interest most economists. More...
Instead, he studied the riddles of everyday lifefrom cheating to crime to child-rearingand his conclusions turned the conventional wisdom on its head. For instance, he argued that one of the main causes of the crime drop of the 1990s was the legalization of abortion twenty years earlier. (Unwanted children have a greater likelihood of becoming criminals; with so many unwanted children being aborted in the 1970s, the pool of potential criminals had significantly shrunk by the 1990s.) The Times article yielded an unprecedented response, a deluge of interest from thousands of curious, inspired, and occasionally distraught readers. Levitt and Dubner collaborated on a book that gives full play to Levitts most compelling ideas. Through forceful storytelling and pungent insight. FREAKONOMICS reminds us all that economics is, at root, the study of incentiveshow people get what they want, or need, especially when other people want or need the same thing. Among the questions it answers: Which is more dangerous, a gun or a swimming pool? If drug dealers make so much money, why do they still live with their mothers? What makes a perfect parent? And, of course: What do schoolteachers and sumo wrestlers have in common? (Answer: they both cheat.)

评分正在看这本书,名字就很有点儿哗众取宠。 第1章第1页就碰到这么一句话:“从根本上来说,经济学就是研究人的动机”,看的一头雾水:经济学观察并解释人的行为,即使算上应用了基本心理学观点的行为经济学,啥时候经济学从根本上就是研究人的动机了?看到第2页所谓的具体动机,...
评分 评分可别看到“经济学”三个字就望而却步。这实在是一本相当有趣的读物。 正如副标题“解释隐藏在表象之下的真实世界”,此书的目的便是用经济学的分析方法去解释一些在我们平常看来和经济无关的事情。看看书的目录你便明白这一点了,“学校老师跟相扑运动员之间有何共同之处”...
评分非常推荐这本书, 最近利用在地铁以及厕所时间在读. 读这本书的过程是极其愉快的,总可以打破自己很多习以为常,默认的观念,这本书让我想起来了另外一本书 ,outliers,都是在对我们很多习惯的观念进行分析与思考,结果是会让我们发现,实际上多少约定俗成的观念实际上是错...
"Morality, it could be argued, represents the way that people would like the world to work — whereas economics represents how it actually does work."
评分看了,英文版。的确通俗,的确有趣。不过实在是太不靠谱,请问每一个chapter的主题是什么?随便抓两个东西就开始扯。。的确是一种新颖的思维方式,可是关经济什么事?还是我对这本书期望值太高了?
评分My friends told me that there are lots of dataset included in this book. Controversial but fun.
