The tsunami of cheap credit that rolled across the planet between 2002 and 2008 was more than a simple financial phenomenon: it was temptation, offering entire societies the chance to reveal aspects of their characters they could not normally afford to indulge. Icelanders wanted to stop fishing and become investment bankers. The Greeks wanted to turn their country into a pinata stuffed with cash and allow as many citizens as possible to take a whack at it. The Germans wanted to be even more German; the Irish wanted to stop being Irish. Michael Lewis's investigation of bubbles beyond our shores is so brilliantly, sadly hilarious that it leads the American reader to a comfortable complacency: oh, those foolish foreigners. But when he turns a merciless eye on California and Washington, DC, we see that the narrative is a trap baited with humor, and we understand the reckoning that awaits the greatest and greediest of debtor nations.
这本书像之前作者的书一样,真实生动。 不像时寒冰那样的高谈阔论。而是通过自己对冰岛,希腊,爱尔兰,德国的亲身探访, 从被采访者的一言一行中来了解这个欧债危机的内在原因。 深度远远大于时寒冰的空洞。 并且读起来很有趣味。 特别是作者穿插着对这些国家的文化特性的表述。

评分 评分读过《说谎者的扑克牌》作者迈克尔·刘易斯这本新书,如果让我来确定副标题,一定会用这个题目,而不是“欧洲即将沦为第三世界”。 读完《自食恶果》,再回头看看《说谎者的扑克牌》,我明白了一件事,刘易斯对了解人的兴趣一定超过赚钱的兴趣,对人性的把握一...
出書速度儼然已成MITSloan MR了…
评分终于把你给搞定了···
评分Michael Lewis还是好文笔,但这本书有趣但深度有限。令人思考的是,Iceland的举债收购海外资产,Ireland的大兴土木造房子,Greece的公务员高福利,Germany的乱买衍生品,Califonia的无节制发市政债,所有可笑和荒诞在中国都似乎可以见怪不怪。
评分很多部分已经在Vanity Fair看过,但重听此书还是很有乐趣。Lewis的选点和文笔真好,让人欲罢不能啊
评分fun 讲德国人与肛门文化的那一部分太好笑了
