A-level学经济学,只会死读课本和复习笔记可不行,你还要多做些延伸阅读。这些非课本上的知识可以帮助小伙伴们更好的了解经济学概念和模型,提高小伙伴们A-level考试审题敏感度,丰富举例论证,还可以帮A-level小伙伴们大学的学习打下坚实基础!
今天,分享一个A-level经济学延伸阅读必读书单!
许多经验丰富的英国A-level经济学教师强推书单中Haskel和Westkale合著的《Capitalism without capital》这本书。David Pilling的《Growth Delusion》也比较受欢迎,这些书试图以不同的方式衡量生活水平和福祉。
另外,凯特·拉沃思(Kate Raworth)的著作《甜甜圈经济学》(Doughnut Economics)对于想培养批判标准经济思维的学生来说也几乎是必读的。如果你现在Year 11在读,那么在正式进入A-level课程以前,拿出时间读读这本书,对你是很有好处的。
如果你想阅读更多关于如何塑造社会企业家精神以解决贫困和气候变化的相关书籍,那么可以读一下穆罕默德·尤努斯(Muhhamad Yunus)的《A World of Three Zeroes》这本书!
