图书描述

Ever since Adam Smith, the central teaching of economics has been that free markets provide us with material well-being, as if by an invisible hand. In Phishing for Phools, Nobel Prize–winning economists George Akerlof and Robert Shiller deliver a fundamental challenge to this insight, arguing that markets harm as well as help us. As long as there is profit to be made, sellers will systematically exploit our psychological weaknesses and our ignorance through manipulation and deception. Rather than being essentially benign and always creating the greater good, markets are inherently filled with tricks and traps and will “phish” us as “phools.”

Phishing for Phools therefore strikes a radically new direction in economics, based on the intuitive idea that markets both give and take away. Akerlof and Shiller bring this idea to life through dozens of stories that show how phishing affects everyone, in almost every walk of life. We spend our money up to the limit, and then worry about how to pay the next month’s bills. The financial system soars, then crashes. We are attracted, more than we know, by advertising. Our political system is distorted by money. We pay too much for gym memberships, cars, houses, and credit cards. Drug companies ingeniously market pharmaceuticals that do us little good, and sometimes are downright dangerous.

Phishing for Phools explores the central role of manipulation and deception in fascinating detail in each of these areas and many more. It thereby explains a paradox: why, at a time when we are better off than ever before in history, all too many of us are leading lives of quiet desperation. At the same time, the book tells stories of individuals who have stood against economic trickery—and how it can be reduced through greater knowledge, reform, and regulation.

"free-market system exploits our weaknesses automatically. markets do not just produce what we really want; they also produce what we want according to our monkey-on-the-shoulder tastes.”

Akerlof和Shiller生动地用本书展示了钓愚：那么浅显的东西逼逼几百页。甚至连心理学和行为经济都是浅浅涉及。伤心

评分☆☆☆☆☆

How people using cues and informational asymmetry to create a zero/negative-sum game. Reading this book and his open-course helps you to know where Shiller stands in a spectrum of economists. Left of Milton Friedman but not very left. He is a believer of the system, and thinks it needs a few patches/ upgrades. Not very information.

读懂这本书需要很多对美国经济和社会的context，大致是写给白人精英读的。应该说是不错，但我一直认为像Akerlof和Shiller这样的诺奖得主有能力可以把复杂问题写得更简单一些，让普通人也能读懂。要不索性就写得更深刻一些，给真正的thinker来读。Phishing for Phools的道理，结果读了看懂了的多半是phishers，phools是不读这种书的。
