Bourgeois Equality: How Ideas, Not Capital or Institutions, Enriched the World
ISBN: 9780226527932 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 768 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. There's little doubt that most humans today are better off than their forebears. Stunningly so, the economist and historian Deirdre McCloskey argues in the concluding volume of her trilogy celebrating the oft-derided virtues of the bourgeoisie. The poorest of humanity, McCloskey shows, will soon be joining the comparative riches of Japan and Sweden and Botswana. Why? Most economists--from Adam Smith and Karl Marx to Thomas Piketty--say the Great Enrichment since 1800 came from accumulated capital. McCloskey disagrees, fiercely. "Our riches," she argues, "were made not by piling brick on...

Knowledge and Persuasion in Economics
ISBN: 9780521434751 / Angielski / Twarda / 1994 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Donald McCloskey's previous books, The Rhetoric of Economics and If You're So Smart, aimed to bring economics back into the wider conversation of the day. In Knowledge and Persuasion in Economics he carries the conversation further, into the seminars of philosophers. His message is that economics is a science, but a human science. It is properly mathematical, but literary too. His book is highly unusual: a work of technical economics that can be read by anyone, a witty guide to the ins and outs of economic philosophy expressed in plain English.

ISBN: 9780472050079 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "McCloskey and Ziliak have been pushing this very elementary, very correct, very important argument through several articles over several years and for reasons I cannot fathom it is still resisted. If it takes a book to get it across, I hope this book will do it. It ought to."--Thomas Schelling, Distinguished University Professor, School of Public Policy, University of Maryland, and 2005 Nobel Prize Laureate in Economics "With humor, insight, piercing logic and a nod to history, Ziliak and McCloskey show how economists--and other scientists--suffer from a mass delusion about...

Bourgeois Dignity: Why Economics Can't Explain the Modern World
ISBN: 9780226556659 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 592 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The big economic story of our times is not the Great Recession. It is how China and India began to embrace neoliberal ideas of economics and attributed a sense of dignity and liberty to the bourgeoisie they had denied for so long.

The Bourgeois Virtues: Ethics for an Age of Commerce
ISBN: 9780226556642 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 634 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. For a century and a half, the artists and intellectuals of Europe have scorned the bourgeoisie. And for a millennium and a half, the philosophers and theologians of Europe have scorned the marketplace. The bourgeois life, capitalism, Mencken's "booboisie" and David Brooks's "bobos"-all have been, and still are, framed as being responsible for everything from financial to moral poverty, world wars, and spiritual desuetude. Countering these centuries of assumptions and unexamined thinking is Deirdre McCloskey's The Bourgeois Virtues, a magnum opus that offers a radical view: capitalism...
