为什么值得读
- 驳斥将结果不平等直接归咎于歧视的逻辑谬误
- 用简明实例推翻经济结果的正态分布假设
- 篇幅短小精炼，不足百五十页即可读完
“对那些将经济结果差异归咎于歧视、剥削或遗传等单因素解释的信奉者提出了挑战。本书基于一套截然不同的方法，并辅以来自世界各地的实证经验，提出了全新的分析视角。其目的不在于推荐某种特定的政策‘修正方案’，而在于阐明为什么如此多的政策补救措施最终适得其反，并揭穿许多这类适得其反的政策背后看似坚不可摧的谬论。”——封套折口。

……读到过一些非常棒但篇幅极短的非虚构类书籍。在我记得读过并且愿意推荐的书里，以下这些都是在过去5年内出版、篇幅不到150页（或者听书不到5小时）的：- 《Discrimination and Disparities》，作者：Thomas Sowell - 《A Colony in a Nation》，作者：Chris Hayes - 《Between the World and Me》，作者：Ta-Nehisi Coates（这三本对美国种族关系给出了截然不同的视角）- 《Astrophysics for People in a Hurry》，作者：Neil……
…across excellent but very, very short non-fiction books. Among those I can remember reading and would recommend, these are published in the past <5 years and are <150 pages (or <5 hour audiobook): - Discrimination and Disparities By: Thomas Sowell - A Colony in a Nation: Chris Hayes - Between the World and Me: Ta-Nehisi Coates (three very different takes on race relations in America) - Astrophysics for People in a Hurry: Neil…
……这种说法往好里说是极具误导性，往坏里说基本就是错的。它还体现了一种极其幼稚、不成熟且短视的现实观。我建议读读 Thomas Sowell 的《Wealth, Poverty, and Politics》或者《Discrimination and Disparities》。几十年来，他一直在驳斥“结果不平等就等于存在种族主义”这种逻辑谬误。
…statement is at best extremely misleading, and at worse, mostly false. It also represents a juvenile, immature, and myopic perspective on reality. I would suggest reading "Wealth, Poverty, and Politics" or "Discrimination and Disparities" by Thomas Sowell. He has been debunking the "inequality of outcome therefore racism" logical fallacy for decades.
关于这个话题，Thomas Sowell 写过一本很棒的书叫《Discrimination and Disparities》。如果你没时间读全书，也可以找找他阐述书中核心观点的访谈，但最基本的结论其实就是：从来没有任何两个群体是完全平等的，而且只有在某些时候……
Thomas Sowell has a great book on the subject called Discrimination and Disparities. There are interviews where he goes over the high-level ideas in the book if you don't have time to read it, but the basic punchline is that this: no two populations have ever been equal, and only sometimes…
……复杂的个体。> 没错，就像我举的骰子例子。但问题在于，如果要证明我骰子的例子是错的，你得说明为什么有些骰子掷出的结果会跟其他的不一样。你应该去读读 Thomas Sowell 的《Discrimination and Disparities》，他在书里干脆利落地打破了关于经济结果的正态分布假设。他通过极其简单的例子——虽然依然极大地简化了现实世界——展示了……
…of complex individuals. > Sure, like my dice example. Except the problem is, for my dice example to be wrong, you need to specify a reason why some dice roll differently than others, You should read "Discrimination and Disparities" By Thomas Sowell, where he quickly crushes the normal distribution hypothesis for economic outcome. He shows through very simple examples, which are still dramatically over-simplifying the world, where…
Thomas Sowell 的《Discrimination and Disparities》探讨了歧视问题，它让我重新审视了在你描述的那种场景下到底发生了什么。强烈推荐。
Thomas Sowell's book Discrimination and Disparities discusses discrimination and has made me reconsider what is actually happening in the type of scenario you describe. I highly recommend it.
Thomas Sowell 在他最近的新书《Discrimination and Disparities》里结合数据详细探讨了完全一样的话题。总的来说，你说得完全没错，他用全球范围的历史数据解释了背后的原因，以及为什么这种方式对社会才是最好的。事实上他指出，我们根本不该去问为什么结果会有差异……
Thomas Sowell covers this exact topic in detail with data in his recent book Discrimination and Disparities. In summary, you are spot on and he explains why, using global and historical data. And why society is best served this way. In fact he says we shouldn’t be asking why there are differences in outcomes,…
