Friedrich A. Hayek is regarded as one of the preeminent social theorists of the twentieth century as much for his work outside of economics as for his work within it. During a career spanning several decades, he made contributions in fields as diverse as psychology, political philosophy, the history of ideas, and the methodology of the social sciences. Bruce Caldwell - editor of "The Collected Works of F. A. Hayek" - understands Hayek's thought like few others, and with this book he offers us the first full intellectual biography of this pivotal economic theorist. As Hayek's ideas matured, he became increasingly critical of developments within mainstream economics; his works evolved in striking - and sometimes seemingly contradictory - ways. Caldwell is ideally suited to explain the complex evolution of Hayek's thought, and his analysis here is nothing short of brilliant, impressively situating Hayek in a broader intellectual context, unpacking the often difficult turns in his thinking, and showing how his economic ideas came to inform his ideas on the other social sciences.

对哈师是有所改观了。哈师的缺点可能更多是时代的缺点 -- 被哲学-科学家如弃敝屣的波普尔居然被LSE那些颇负盛名的经济学家奉为座上宾;而哈师的对手也不很高明 -- 例如无论左右都热情的讨论法西斯是姓资还是姓社的问题,如今看都极具误导性。另外,虽然哈师的纯粹资本和动态均衡理论都浮皮潦草的收尾,但他毕竟是谦逊好学的 -- 他转向了思想史。哈师笔耕不辍,他不仅对某些思想的解释方法产生了重大影响,所犯的错... 对哈师是有所改观了。哈师的缺点可能更多是时代的缺点 -- 被哲学-科学家如弃敝屣的波普尔居然被LSE那些颇负盛名的经济学家奉为座上宾;而哈师的对手也不很高明 -- 例如无论左右都热情的讨论法西斯是姓资还是姓社的问题,如今看都极具误导性。另外,虽然哈师的纯粹资本和动态均衡理论都浮皮潦草的收尾,但他毕竟是谦逊好学的 -- 他转向了思想史。哈师笔耕不辍,他不仅对某些思想的解释方法产生了重大影响,所犯的错误倒也并不比前代更为恶劣。但很遗憾,“反科学主义的社会科学”所借助的似是而非的生物学术语与他意图拒斥的十九世纪科学相比并不少多少,甚至还更离谱。最后还想说一句,中译本是真的拉。 (展开)
