内容简介
Economics is not widely considered to be one of the sexier sciences. The annual Nobel Prize winner in that field never receives as much publicity as his or her compatriots in peace, literature, or physics. But if such slights are based on the notion that economics is dull, or that economists are concerned only with finance itself, Steven D. Levitt will change some minds. In Freakonomics (written with Stephen J. Dubner), Levitt argues that many apparent mysteries of everyday life don't need to be so mysterious: they could be illuminated and made even more fascinating by asking the right questions and drawing connections. For example, Levitt traces the drop in violent crime rates to a drop in violent criminals and, digging further, to the Roe v. Wade decision that preempted the existence of some people who would be born to poverty and hardship. Elsewhere, by analyzing data gathered from inner-city Chicago drug-dealing gangs, Levitt outlines a corporate structure much like McDonald's, where the top bosses make great money while scores of underlings make something below minimum wage. And in a section that may alarm or relieve worried parents, Levitt argues that parenting methods don't really matter much and that a backyard swimming pool is much more dangerous than a gun. These enlightening chapters are separated by effusive passages from Dubner's 2003 profile of Levitt in The New York Times Magazine, which led to the book being written. In a book filled with bold logic, such back-patting veers Freakonomics, however briefly, away from what Levitt actually has to say. Although maybe there's a good economic reason for that too, and we're just not getting it yet. --John Moe

    都不是新书。一两年前看了Freakonomics,今天才看完它的续集Super Fkreakonimics,还是挺有趣的,但内容比起第一本来有点注水。

    6.【Freakonomics Radio】语速适中,内容多样,作为英语专业学生的听译自我修养还是必要的(其实很少听[拜拜]) 7.【不好吃哪来力气耍流氓】@IcyPineapple 吃货少女的碎碎念,每期一吃。我一直觉得主播搞反了,应该是【不吃好哪来力气耍流氓】才对吧?管他的,反正我也是少女,少女就是任性。[白眼]

    这期的Freakonomics话题“Guaranteed Basic Income”,右狗们跳吧,你们祖师爷都支持的。好像Freakonomics被解封了,封得莫明其妙,解得不知所云。网页链接
