In the century after the Civil War, an economic revolution improved the American standard of living in ways previously unimaginable. Electric lighting, indoor plumbing, home appliances, motor vehicles, air travel, air conditioning, and television transformed households and workplaces. With medical advances, life expectancy between 1870 and 1970 grew from forty-five to seventy-two years. Weaving together a vivid narrative, historical anecdotes, and economic analysis, The Rise and Fall of American Growth provides an in-depth account of this momentous era. But has that era of unprecedented growth come to an end?

Gordon challenges the view that economic growth can or will continue unabated, and he demonstrates that the life-altering scale of innovations between 1870 and 1970 can't be repeated. He contends that the nation's productivity growth, which has already slowed to a crawl, will be further held back by the vexing headwinds of rising inequality, stagnating education, an aging population, and the rising debt of college students and the federal government. Gordon warns that the younger generation may be the first in American history that fails to exceed their parents' standard of living, and that rather than depend on the great advances of the past, we must find new solutions to overcome the challenges facing us.

A critical voice in the debates over economic stagnation, The Rise and Fall of American Growth is at once a tribute to a century of radical change and a harbinger of tougher times to come.

这是一本比较难读的书,里面汇总了大量的数据和图表,读起来的时候需要人非常的专注,要求有很高的关注度,这种长时间的阅读真是对自己的一种考验,还好,断断续续,一章一章的,慢慢的读完啦,还是比较要成就感。 比较起美国初期的生活条件,我们现在的生活还是幸福很多,但是...

好书,花了近10天才勉强啃完的大部头。资料很翔实,可以做工具书了。涉及的范围很广,到后面有点看不下去。每章开头有引言,然后分开论述,最后再有一节小结。经济增长并不是一个又一个世纪以不变速度创造经济进步的稳态过程。1700年之前的上千年几乎没有经济增长,在1870年之...

格雷厄姆的方法难度更低,但对于百亿级以下的资金量来说,收益却没有更低。就性价比来说,很明显格雷厄姆的方法更好。以巴菲特后期的资金量而言,寻找低估企业的方法容量已经不够了。大家千万不要去学后期的巴菲特,不光难度高,收益还低(巴菲特投资生涯的后半段,收益率的下...

“We wanted flying cars, instead we got 140 characters.”

"The I.T. revolution is less important than any one of the five Great Inventions that powered economic growth from 1870 to 1970: electricity, urban sanitation, chemicals and pharmaceuticals, the internal combustion engine and modern communication."

在《理性客觀派》之後,這本書讓我對未來有一點淡淡的擔憂。也許,我們的第一個黃金時代已經過去,而下一個黃金時代還不知道什麼時候纔會來。
