In the real world, the distinction between entrepreneurs and capitalists is blurry. If a business loan were truly risk-free, then the capitalist would earn a guaranteed return on his or her loan and would be selling "services" for an agreed-upon price just as the utility company sells electricity to the entrepreneur. Yet in reality, the capitalist who lends to a new business always partakes in the entrepreneurial risk of the venture, regardless of the terms of the contract. It's always possible that the business fails and the capitalist loses everthing. (查看原文)
Keep in mind that economists don't rely on a theory of supply and demand; they rather use them as tools. The concepts of supply and demand are ways of viewing the world. The allow economists to group different forces or causes into two different categories, in order to think clearly and systematically about changes in the world and how they will impact market prices.
Because supply and demand are conceptual tools, not an empirical theory, there will never be evidence that demonstrates that "supply and demand" is somehow false. What might happen is that future economists decide that "supply and demand" is no longer the most useful approach to thinking about prices. For now, virtually all practicing economists use supply and demand to explain market prices, because superior tools have yet t... (查看原文)
Class 1 像经济学家那样思考 经济学是研究交换的科学。为了防范政府无视经济规律、推行破坏性政策造成的危害，大众需掌握基础经济学。 Class 2 如何发现经济学原理 经济学法则只适用于有目的的行动，不适用无意识的行为。 Class 5 私有产权制度 为解决因稀缺而产生的冲突产生的...

“我们在本书中一再强调，经济分析本身不能决定哪些政府政策是好的、哪些是坏的。但经济分析可以揭示出一项政策的后果。”

最佳的经济学入门书。可惜关于社会主义的内容，1课被阉，另1课被删，网上有被删减部分的完整版，详见：http://www.douban.com/group/LFYE/

奥地利经济学的观点简单介绍，很多都是点到为止，入门书，要找别的书认真研究，禁毒经济学那部分见解挺新颖的。

带着奥地利学派的偏见在讲经济学，完全不适合新手阅读，容易被带偏。 社会科学没一个理论本来就没有100%的证明，这点不像自然科学。作者有意的加大奥地利学派的观点，曲解了常见的经济学效用、福利、调控等概念。 作为了解奥地利学派的第一本经济学书合适，但不适合新学经济学的读者。 大家应该选择更为公正严谨的书作为第一本入门书
