上周读了这本书,毫不犹豫地在goodreads上打了五星。
我跟一个德国同事介绍这本书时,她说最近类似的书名太多了,很多人都号称在总结经验教训,但很多书都名不符实。但她相信我的阅读品味,立即去书店买了一本,读后我们做了好几次深刻的交流。
这本书的书名有点俗,但内容绝不俗。
我是在一次跑步时从NPR广播里听到作者的专访得知他新出版的这本书的。作者1986年本科毕业于耶鲁大学,1993年获哈佛大学政府学(Government)专业博士,在哈佛期间曾师从塞缪尔森·亨廷顿(Samuel P. Huntington)。
作者从十方方面归纳了自己对后疫情时代整个世界走势和变化的看法,有些观点并不新颖,但角度全面。
下为章节目录:
Lesson 1: Buckle up
Lesson 2: What matters is not the quantity of government but the quality
