罗伯特·墨菲是美国著名经济学家、顾问、专栏作家和多部畅销书作者。他的热门文章经常出现在《洛杉矶时报》《华盛顿时报》《市场观察》《福布斯》和《投资者商业日报》等杂志上,作品包括《第一本经济学》《<人的行为>导读》《<人,经济与国家>导读》《选择》等。
We are beyond mere excitement about Lessons for the Young Economist. It is easily the best introduction to economics for the young reader—because it covers both pure economic theory and also how markets work (the domain of most introductory books).
Robert Murphy has the right frame of mind and mastery of the subject matter to provide the best possible pedagogy. The logic is super clear. The organization is impeccable. It achieves a great balance between “plain old” economics and that aspect of economic thought that is considered particularly Austrian. Therefore, it prepares the student for both conventional economic studies in the future and provides the logical rigor and policy clarity that only the Austrian School perspective can offer.
Most of the attempts at such texts falter because they are either too dry and technical for the young reader or they are littered with attempts to keep the student entertained with references to pop culture or cheesy passages that attempt to “speak the child’s language” but only end up sounding patronizing.
Dr. Murphy’s text has none of this. The prose has relentless fire without needless fireworks. What drives it forward is intellectual passion born of his love of the topic. What’s also nice is that he is nowhere self-consciously trying to sound like someone he is not. It is his real voice, explaining everything point by point. For this reason, the text is warm and engaging.
Here is the product of vast experience and daily writing. This permits the voicing of the book to achieve a remarkable integration page to page, chapter to chapter. Though he is drawing from the whole history of the development of economics, the text ends up being strikingly original. His approach is not based on anything but his own sense of how to teach this subject.
This book will not be boring or useless even for people who think they already know the subject. Every page or two, there are fresh insights. For example, on the problems with barter, he shows that in the real world, most goods and services would not have come into existence at all (so that there would be no trading of tractors for cobbler services because there would be no tractors or repairable shoes). In another place, he points out that one of the advantages of the division of labor is that it makes the advantages of automation more readily apparent.
Maybe these points appear in other introductory texts but the way he works them into a logical and seamless system is very impressive. It has a much larger market than just high-school students. Anyone can enjoy this book and learn from it. The appropriate age here is probably 13 and up but any adult will love this book.
Murphy wrote the first study guides to Human Action and Man, Economy, and State. He can now add another medal to his chest. It is a big one. There is every reason to believe that this book will still have powerful legs decades from now.
As for the price, it is close to being a miracle for a textbook of this size and expanse. The conventional publishers of bad books at high prices don't stand a chance against this landmark.
非常好的中译本,读起来十分流畅,值得推荐给所有人。 虽然我并不是一个好学生,但从高二就开始了理工男的生涯,30多年了竟然没有意识到自己的知识体系是如此狭隘。作者墨菲用最浅显的字句让我领悟到社会、人、经济、生活所构造的社会科学是如此宝贵,永远环绕在人周围的社会...
评分很好的奥派经济学入门书籍 经济学分为很多学派,凯恩斯学派,货币学派,马克思主义经济学等等,各个学派之间党同伐异,经济学应该属于什么范畴?凯恩斯学派将经济学归为统计数学类,统计各种产值,运用数学的研究方法,比如国民生产总值等一系列的指数。奥派则不使用数学,从分...
评分墨菲说,他从法律上支持毒品合法化,虽然从道德上他支持禁毒。他的这个立场,和奥地利学派、马尔萨斯这些人的立场是一致的,或者说他和Sowell所谓的那些持有the tragic vision的人的立场是一致的。但是问题是,即使对人性、人的理性能力有悲观的态度,也没有必要放弃干预。当然...
评分看完本书,很多文章不用看了:说凯恩斯好的,说禁毒好的,说房价会跌的,说要最低工资的,说社保好的等等。 经济学有供需关系图,而供需是怎么来的,作者耐心细致的列表说明,以至与供需都有了亲切感。 禁毒经济学一章,展现了奥地利学派讲道理的功夫。毒品市场化与道德上抑...
评分《第一本经济学》的译者在序言中说:“经济学原本是帮助人们洞察世事、学习人与人相处之道的有趣学问。”——我理解的“洞察世事”,是说,经济学提供了一套由许多相互联系的概念组成的理论框架,我们用它来理解经济运行,和各种与稀缺、选择相关的社会现象。 不管市面...
第一本奥派的
评分看英文原版书还是有很大难度,很多地方一知半解,电子版同样还不适应。
评分第一本奥地利学派经济学入门读物,厘清,了解了很多知识点,很赞啊!
评分看英文原版书还是有很大难度,很多地方一知半解,电子版同样还不适应。
评分读到最后才发现是一本奥地利学派洗脑初中生的读物,但是最精彩的还是后半部分从论证社会主义开始到对政府干预的反对。
