Peter Bernstein argues that the notion of bringing risk under control is one of the central ideas that distinguishes modern times from the more distant past. When investors buy stocks, surgeons perform operations, entrepreneurs launch new businesses, and politicians run for office, risk is their inescapable partner. Bernstein clarifies the major components of risk, explaining how they can be applied to our professional endeavors.

评分首先,这是一本讲概率史的书,也有部分统计史的内容。内容不错,将概率、统计的发展与在金融、投资学上的应用联系了起来,揭示了其一脉相承的关系。 学概率统计时如果配合一读,会增加一些思想的感官认识。 其次,翻译比较差。许多专有名词和术语都错了,译者的前言也没有什么...
评分金融和管理的世界存在着的一组矛盾:一派坚持认为最好的决策是由过去模式决定的限制和数据为基础;另一派的决策则是对不确定性更大程度上的主观信仰。 不管是哪一派,都有各自的理由。深层次的讲,这涉及到人的哲学观念,人的主观能动性和客观世界的存在的关系。金融世界两派...
