The tsunami of cheap credit that rolled across the planet between 2002 and 2008 was more than a simple financial phenomenon: it was temptation, offering entire societies the chance to reveal aspects of their characters they could not normally afford to indulge. Icelanders wanted to stop fishing and become investment bankers. The Greeks wanted to turn their country into a pinata stuffed with cash and allow as many citizens as possible to take a whack at it. The Germans wanted to be even more German; the Irish wanted to stop being Irish. Michael Lewis's investigation of bubbles beyond our shores is so brilliantly, sadly hilarious that it leads the American reader to a comfortable complacency: oh, those foolish foreigners. But when he turns a merciless eye on California and Washington, DC, we see that the narrative is a trap baited with humor, and we understand the reckoning that awaits the greatest and greediest of debtor nations.
前幾天在架上看到這本新書,瞄了很久後決定買了。 作者麥克.路易士(Michael Lewis),其實只要說他也寫了《魔球》、《大賣空》等書,常看這類書的應該就懂,總之,就是暢銷書作家。不過,暢銷歸暢銷,關我屁事,會買這本書,主要原因還是主題。 在大選迫近之前,歐債一直是報...

评分一本簡易有趣的歐美債務危機導覽. 作者以活潑的文字風格. 粗略解析歐美各國在債務風暴中的成因與現象... 作者的筆鋒一點都不饒人. 他將這本報導文學作品. 寫得很諷刺. 很能調侃書中人事物. 讓所採訪的敘事本身. 變得深具趣味與可讀性. 不愧是位暢銷作家... 冰島已不再是個漁...
评分整本书以2005年以来历次前后嵌套的经济危机的积累与爆发为主线,作者通过到经济危机的爆发地探索,从民族性,社会性和经济活动之间的关系,深入浅出地把危机的主要原因,剖析和展现在读者面前。趣味性与严肃性并存,很有启发,而且一旦读上,就会爱不释手地一路读完。这本书不...
13W,本来是可以给4颗星的,但因为是Michael Lewis写的,让我大失所望,所以扣一颗星。。。
评分fun 讲德国人与肛门文化的那一部分太好笑了
评分as funny as his other works. Europeans must be bloody angry about his jokes though
评分很多部分已经在Vanity Fair看过,但重听此书还是很有乐趣。Lewis的选点和文笔真好,让人欲罢不能啊
评分Michael Lewis还是好文笔,但这本书有趣但深度有限。令人思考的是,Iceland的举债收购海外资产,Ireland的大兴土木造房子,Greece的公务员高福利,Germany的乱买衍生品,Califonia的无节制发市政债,所有可笑和荒诞在中国都似乎可以见怪不怪。
