ontheway等朋友在找Philippe Aghion and Peter Howitt 的《The Economics of Growth》,这本书网上很难下载到,国家图书馆外文阅览室有,可以复印,但收费比较贵,而且外地朋友不方便。为了方便大家,发一个Philippe Aghion and Peter Howitt 的《The Economics of Growth》草稿。
说来也很有趣,这是我2008年初找这本书的时候从一个俄文网站上发现的,下载时除了阿拉伯数字外一个字也不认识,搞下来也算是天意。我自己整理了目录,主题内容基本涵盖,当然草稿跟最终出版的还是有些差别,但学习应基本不受影响。不过如果一直跟踪他们论文的话,书稿只不过系统了一些而已。当然,我支持正版!
虽然还有些银两,但也象征性收费,只是避免有些人不把它当回事儿,而且也很怀念当时找文献和读文献的激情。如果实在需要有买不起,那请朋友给我留个言,发一篇你的大作或你认为最前沿的增长文献给我(给在帖子后面就可以了),我把书稿发给你,作为交换,好不好?
