内容简介
This book helps you discover the secrets behind hundreds of everyday enigmas. Why is there a light in your fridge but not in your freezer? Why do 24-hour shops bother having locks on their doors? Why did Kamikaze pilots wear helmets? The answer is simple: economics. Economics doesn't just happen in classrooms or international banks. It is everywhere and influences everything we do and see, from the cinema screen to the streets. It can even explain some of life's most intriguing enigmas. For years, economist Robert Frank has been encouraging his students to use economics to explain the strange situations they encounter in everyday life, from peculiar product design to the vagaries of sex appeal. Now he shares the most intriguing -- and bizarre -- questions and the economic principles that answer them to reveal why many of the most puzzling parts of everyday life actually make perfect (economic) sense.

书的内容应该是没问题的,本身是本好书,但是在京东买了这么多书了,第一次觉得包装这么差,因为根本没包装 就这样装在京东的袋子里。打开一看 书封面有严重的折角 好几页也都有折痕,背后也有破损,估计是别人退货之类的来回折腾成这样了。由于是外地调拨过来的,书就算旧点也能理解,但是好歹包装一下,也能稍微保护下的。哎,好失望
