In Economic Facts and Fallacies, Thomas Sowell exposes some of the most popular fallacies about economic issues in a lively manner that does not require any prior knowledge of economics. These fallacies include many beliefs widely disseminated in the media and by politicians, such as fallacies about urban problems, income differences, male-female economic differences, as well as economic fallacies about academia, about race, and about Third World countries.
Sowell shows that fallacies are not simply crazy ideas but in fact have a certain plausibility that gives them their staying power--and makes careful examination of their flaws both necessary and important.
Thomas Sowell has taught economics at Cornell, UCLA, Amherst and other academic institutions, and his Basic Economics has been translated into six languages. He is currently a scholar in residence at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University. He has published both in academic journals and in such popular media as the Wall Street Journal, Forbes, and Fortune, and writes a synd...

Learn to Think twice. Keep thinking twice. Have a thing about "fallacies". 树立的论述提供了更多的思考方法和思考角度，就点攻点是有意义的，但以点推及整个论点都是没有可信度是错误的，因此书里fallacies的列举不代表说的全部都是对的，或者说可靠的。

我自己也算个自由市场主义者，不过这本书写的真的不怎么样，同样话题，不如看一课经济学，虽然这个名字翻译的也很kuso

索维尔是个超大号的陈腐粉碎机。陈腐的概念，并不等于是老旧的，也可以是看似光鲜的正义的，从而被许多人不假思索接受的那一类。索维尔的本事，是他能把简单的道理用简单的语言讲得简单明了，使陈腐在 common sense 面前倾刻瓦解。

只能说有点启发，但不多。名头很大，东西挺少。对部分观点有质疑。

城市是否真的过于拥挤？工业社会污染真的更严重吗？城市规划是不是愚行？贫民窟是犯罪的温床？谁是高房价的罪魁祸首？政府强迫银行给穷人贷款是帮了他们还是害了他们？银行对于少数族裔是否有歧视？美国社会中，黑人、女姓是否受到雇主的歧视？学校公立化、教授终身制是有利于学术自由，还是造成了极大量的资源浪费？社会正义、人权、福利、环保、动物保护这些话语听起来很美，但托马斯·索维尔以经济学的眼光、大量的数据和事实证... 城市是否真的过于拥挤？工业社会污染真的更严重吗？城市规划是不是愚行？贫民窟是犯罪的温床？谁是高房价的罪魁祸首？政府强迫银行给穷人贷款是帮了他们还是害了他们？银行对于少数族裔是否有歧视？美国社会中，黑人、女姓是否受到雇主的歧视？学校公立化、教授终身制是有利于学术自由，还是造成了极大量的资源浪费？社会正义、人权、福利、环保、动物保护这些话语听起来很美，但托马斯·索维尔以经济学的眼光、大量的数据和事实证明了这些看起来高贵的目标无一不造成了严重的后果，再次证明了哈耶克的明言：“通往地狱的道路，往往由善意铺就” (展开)
