商品の説明

  • <p>Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Many world leaders have studied economics, but most seem to be happy without a degree. #2 While economics can help you, actually running an economy requires much more than just that. John Maynard Keynes once argued that the master economist must possess a rare combination of gifts. #3 Until recently, governments have been trying to collect economic data for their own greedy purposes. But with the Great Depression, governments became serious about measuring the economy for the sake of fixing problems rather than grabbing a piece of the economic pie. #4 The GDP is the total value of all the stuff that is produced in the economy. It is measured in dollars and is about $70 trillion. All the smart phones and tablet computers, barrels of oil and kilowatt-hours of wind energy, haircuts and Brazilian waxes, and everything else produced in the entire world are collectively worth about $70 trillion...

  • <p><strong>A provocative and lively exploration of the increasingly important world of macroeconomics, by the author of the bestselling <em>The Undercover Economist</em>.</strong></p> <p>Thanks to the worldwide financial upheaval, economics is no longer a topic we can ignore.

In this new book that demystifies macroeconomics, Harford strips away the spin, the hype, and the jargon to reveal the truth about how the world’s economy actually works. With the wit of a raconteur and the clear grasp of an expert, Harford explains what’s really happening beyond today’s headlines, why all of us should care, and what we can do about it to understand it better.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ペ...

  • <p>A million readers bought <em>The Undercover Economist</em> to get the lowdown on how economics works on a small scale, in our everyday lives. Since then, economics has become big news. Crises, austerity, riots, bonuses - all are in the headlines all the time. But how does this large-scale economic world really work? What would happen if we cancelled everyone's debt? How do you create a job? Will the BRIC countries take over the world? Asking - among many other things -- what the future holds for the Euro, why the banks are still paying record bonuses and where government borrowing will take us, in <em>The Undercover Economist Strikes Back</em>, Tim Harford returns with his trademark clarity and wit to explain what's really going on - and what it means for us all.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

    商品の説明

  • <p>An economist's version of The Way Things Work, this engaging volume is part field guide to economics and part expose of the economic principles lurking behind daily events, explaining everything from traffic jams to high coffee prices. The Undercover Economist is for anyone who's wondered why the gap between rich and poor nations is so great, or why they can't seem to find a decent second-hand car, or how to outwit Starbucks. This book offers the hidden story behind these and other questions, as economist Tim Harford ranges from Africa, Asia, Europe, and of course the United States to reveal how supermarkets, airlines, and coffee chains--to name just a few--are vacuuming money from our wallets. Harford punctures the myths surrounding some of today's biggest controversies, including the high cost of health-care; he reveals why certain environmental laws can put a smile on a landlord's face; and he explains why some industries can have high profits for innocent reasons, while in ...

  • <p>Who makes most money from the demand for cappuccinos early in the morning at Waterloo Station? Why is it impossible to get a foot on the property ladder? How does the Mafia make money from laundries when street gangs pushing drugs don't? Who really benefits from immigration? How can China, in just fifty years, go from the world's worst famine to one of the greatest economic revolutions of all time, lifting a million people out of poverty a month?</p> <p>Looking at familiar situations in unfamiliar ways, THE UNDERCOVER ECONOMIST is a fresh explanation of the fundamental principles of the modern economy, illuminated by examples from the streets of London to the booming skyscrapers of Shanghai to the sleepy canals of Bruges. Leaving behind textbook jargon and equations, Tim Harford will reveal the games of signals and negotiations, contests of strength and battles of wit that drive not only the economy at large but the everyday choices we make.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、...
