The origin of wealth 财富的由来 115盘 下载 pdf txt 电子版 mobi snb docx

It is now very evident that the forces of digitalization, globalization and deregulation are driving a revolution in the world economy. What is less well-known is that a simultaneous revolution is underway in how we think about economics. In universities, think tanks and companies around the world, researchers are drawing on fields as diverse as cognitive science, evolutionary theory,and the study of complex adaptive systems to radically re-think our most basic beliefs about economics and the economy. This book is a report from the front lines of this 'seismic shift in the intellectual landscape' with chapters on its implications for strategy, organization, finance, and public policy.

书籍介绍

Economics is changing radically. This paradigm shift, the biggest in the field for over a century, will have profound implications for business, government and society for decades to come. In this groundbreaking book, economic thinker and writer Eric Beinhocker surveys the cutting-edge ideas of the leading economists, physicists, biologists and cognitive scientists who are fundamentally reshaping economics, and brings their work alive for a broad audience. These researchers argue that the economy is a ‘complex adaptive system’, more akin to the brain, the internet or an ecosystem than to the static picture of economic systems portrayed by traditional theory. They claim it is the evolutionary process of differentiation, selection and amplification, acting on designs for technologies, social institutions and businesses that drives growth in the economy over time. If Adam Smith provided the inspiration for economics in the twentieth century, it is Charles Darwin who is providing it in the twenty-first. If we can understand how evolution creates wealth, then we can better answer the question ‘How can we create more wealth for the benefit of individuals, businesses and society?’ Beinhocker shows how 'Complexity Economics' turns conventional wisdom on its head in areas such as business strategy, the design of organisations, the workings of stock markets and public policy. As sweeping in scope as its title, The Origin of Wealth is a landmark book that shatters orthodox economic theory, and will rewire our thinking about how we came to be here – and where we are going.
