内容简介
What causes poverty? Are economic crises inevitable under capitalism? Is government intervention in an economy a helpful approach or a disastrous idea? The answers to such basic economic questions matter to everyone, yet the unfamiliar jargon and math of economics can seem daunting. This clear, accessible, and even humorous book is ideal for young readers new to economics and for all readers who seek a better understanding of the full sweep of economic history and ideas.
Economic historian Niall Kishtainy organizes short, chronological chapters that center on big ideas and events. He recounts the contributions of key thinkers including Adam Smith, David Ricardo, Karl Marx, John Maynard Keynes, and others, while examining topics ranging from the invention of money and the rise of agrarianism to the Great Depression, entrepreneurship, environmental destruction, inequality, and behavioral economics. The result is a uniquely enjoyable volume that succeeds in illuminating the economic ideas and forces that shape our world.

LaoBai的评论按照英文原书的名称,这才是货真价实的“简史”,不知道出版者为什么选了通识这个名字,估计是想蹭薛教授流量。这本书以经济学历史发展为线,介绍了经济学的研究范畴和主要课题,通俗简洁,倒也担得起通识这个名字。我在网上搜了一下,其实这是耶鲁大学一套简史系列中的一本,这个系列都叫A little history of ......,有世界史、哲学、宗教、考古等。据goodreads评分,普遍中规中矩。本书翻译称不上精彩,还算尚可,适合初学者入门。

糖醋南风的评论经济学理论入门读物,学术向但不硬核,总体较全,可随手翻阅。已根据本书以日记与豆列形式整理经济学家及主要著作。

密码有误的评论“在经济学里,没有数学题那样永远正确的答案,在见过历史上思想家们的不同回应之后,我们应该能受到启发,做出自己的回答……在本书一开始的时候,我们见到了最早思考经济学的人:古希腊的哲学家。他们关心生活最基本的、那些我们至今仍需面对的问题:人类社会的良好生活需要什么?怎样获得幸福和满足?真正的繁荣由何而来?这些经济学开始的地方,在经历了那么多争执和反对之后,也是它再次出发的地方”~(2019/05/07-06/05读完~

不履不停的评论“Despite its flaws,then,economics is vital to humanity. But economics has struggled with broader questions about how human societies as a whole work. If you study economics at university,you mainly learn about those basic economic principles. They're powerful and useful but you should use them with care."

青猫的评论不建议学过basic economics 的人读 因为实在太浅显了 基本就是把大学课本改编成一个个小故事。每个章节短小精悍 不过会让人产生马上就要读完了的错觉。私以为经济学还是适合深奥的表现方式……

A_CestMoi的评论这才是原版 翻译成通识真的会给人造成误解 看了10章觉得好像这是一本历史书 little history

42的评论写的很浅,原理说的都很简单,有些意犹未尽

武当派掌门的评论还算不错的经济学入门读物。历史的部分其实不多,主要是介绍现代经济学的基本概念。
