The Wealth and Poverty of Nations pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
The history of nations is a history of haves and have-nots, and as we approach the millennium, the gap between rich and poor countries is widening. In this engrossing and important new work, eminent historian David Landes explores the complex, fascinating and often startling causes of the wealth and poverty of nations. The answers are found not only in the large forces at work in economies: geography, religion, the broad swings of politics, but also in the small surprising details. In Europe, the invention of spectacles doubled the working life of skilled craftsmen, and played a prominent role in the creation of articulated machines, and in China, the failure to adopt the clock fundamentally hindered economic development. The relief of poverty is vital to the survival of us all. As David Landes brilliantly shows, the key to future success lies in understanding the lessons the past has to teach us - lessons uniquely imparted in this groundbreaking and vital book which exemplifies narrative history at its best.
戴维·S·兰德斯,美国哈佛大学历史学和经济学教授,著有《时间的革命》和《摆脱束缚的普罗米修斯》等书。

评分昨天同事借给一本书《国富国穷》看,因为向同事们推荐了《大国崛起》,他说这本书可以和《大国崛起》对照着看,另外一种角度的解读。 昨晚翻阅了大概三分之一,后来就放慢了速度,因为感觉比较吸引。相信《大国崛起》的编撰者是看过这本书的,所以,看的时候,颇有熟识之感,...
