THE UNDERCOVER ECONOMIST showed how ordinary economics explained everyday curiosities, such as the price of a cup of coffee and the traffic jam on the way to the supermarket. THE LOGIC OF LIFE shows how the new economics of rational choice theory explains much, much more. Drug addicts and teenage muggers can be rational. Suburban sprawl and inner city decay are rational. Endless meetings at the office and the injustices of working life? Rational. Economics explains why your boss is overpaid, whether we should build more prisons, and whether a city like New Orleans can recover from disaster. THE LOGIC OF LIFE introduces you to engaging stories and characters linked together in a bold narrative sweep. The book starts with the most intimate decisions - to have sex, to take drugs, to lead an honest life - then zooms out to discuss the logic of the family, of neighbourhoods, large corporations, cities themselves. This is the new economics of everything you never thought was economics, and it will help you see the world in a new way.

评分书中的很多关于历史方面的很有意思,就好像英国的光荣革命,让人有恍然大悟之感.作者态度很严肃,比<卧底经济学>进步了.
评分这些天大家都在讨论高管高工资的问题.我推荐大家看一看这本书.真的让我恍然大悟的,原来有经济学的道理在里面!其实就像作者说的,存在的事情未必何理.世界还真就是那么回事,你爱愤怒就愤怒,真的没人爱搭理你,可它会始终存在下去……真有见地,佩服。
