Why do the keypads on drive-up cash machines have Braille dots? Why are round-trip fares from Orlando to Kansas City higher than those from Kansas City to Orlando? For decades, Robert Frank has been asking his economics students to pose and answer questions like these as a way of learning how economic principles operate in the real world-which they do everywhere, all the time. Once you learn to think like an economist, all kinds of puzzling observations start to make sense. Drive-up ATM keypads have Braille dots because it’s cheaper to make the same machine for both drive-up and walk-up locations. Travelers from Kansas City to Orlando pay less because they are usually price-sensitive tourists with many choices of destination, whereas travelers originating from Orlando typically choose Kansas City for specific family or business reasons. The Economic Naturalist employs basic economic principles to answer scores of intriguing questions from everyday life, and, along the way, introduces key ideas such as the cost-benefit principle, the “no cash on the table” principle, and the law of one price. This is as delightful and painless a way to learn fundamental economics as there is.

评分中文版《牛奶可乐经济学》
评分很有趣的!
评分看到第2年,终于放弃了……当年大热的《牛奶可乐经济学》原版。其实它不过是一本学生作业合集。作者的语言很单一很无趣啊,想法尚可。没耐性,只好放掉了。
如果说这本书有什么意义的话, 那么它可能普及了一些经济学概念, 吸引人对经济学的兴趣, 如此而已. 我对这本书的总体评价应该说是相当负面的. 这本书, 在我看来, 展示的并非经济学的运用, 而是为日常现象提供一个可能的经济学解释. 而让本书失去价值的正是, 它仅仅寻求一种"可...
评分我家对面有两个店,一个是小超市,另一个也是小超市。所不同的是一个朝九晚五,一个从不打烊,后者叫“36524便利店”,大街小巷都有分店,而前者这么多年依旧是一个小超市。我已开始也不理解“35624”的经营策略,就拿我家对面的这个店来说,明明处于一条很僻静的小街道,虽说...
评分用经济学解决图书馆霸位问题的初步构想 ▶周猫又 每学期最令人郁闷的事情莫过于复习周图书馆的霸位战争了。当你早早7点从床上挣扎起来准备去图书馆好好奋斗一天的时候,居然发现明明没人坐的位置上却被人用一大坨书堂而皇之地霸占着,”这他妈简直就是站着茅坑不XX!”...
评分 评分我这辈子最不会做的事情就是跟钱打交道(至少直到现在为止),所以让我读一本经济学书籍,实际上我是拒绝的,今年读过《冲突的战略》(讲博弈论的),结果剩了三分之二宣告失败,就连读过的三分之一都完全处在云里雾里。 偶然之间去朋友的书店,看到畅销书里排名前十的这本《...
