The Wealth and Poverty of Nations pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2025
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.

这本书是哈佛大学历史学和经济学教授戴维﹒S﹒兰德斯所著的鸿篇巨制。整本书很有斯塔夫里阿诺斯《全球通史》的感觉。而且几乎分析思路都有类似之处:都起始于自然环境,紧接着分析在此基础上的欧洲,进而拓展到其它地区。这也是两本书的共同局限吧,虽是鸿篇巨制,但仍免不了...
评分欧洲陆地面积1016万平方公里,中国领土面积960万平方公里,几乎一般大小。然而,欧洲包含50多个国家,中国则是单一的政治实体。这还不只是现状,在有历史记载的2500年间,东亚大陆在大部分时段处于中国各个王朝的统治之下,除了春秋战国、南北朝、五代十国和南宋等分治时期。...
评分阅读国富国穷的感受,和我去东部华侨城大峡谷的感受是一样的。那是一天游玩结束的时候,我到顶部天桥,视野非常开阔,一边是绿草如茵的云海谷。另一边是蔚蓝大海,海岸线弯弯曲曲延伸到远方,海面上零星有几条船,一条船向前驶去,留下身后白白一条浪花线,看上去是那么地静谧...
评分【http://blog.sina.com.cn/leiwon】记得念大学时听一位老师说过:“上帝对欧洲人太好了,那里一年四季的气候都那么宜人。”当时只是觉得巧合,并没有把地理因素与国家发展放在一起来思考。直至看到作者就此问题娓娓道来:“从关于产值和人均收入的世界地图上可以看出,富国位...
