书籍简介

“你从未听说过的重要的人”——《纽约时报》

“帕尔塔·达斯古普塔为我们提供了急需的指南针……通过将经济学和生态学结合起来，我们或许能在z后一刻拯救自然世界——并在此过程中拯救我们自己。”——大卫·艾登堡

“这是自亚当·斯密的《国富论》以来，适合普通读者阅读的经济学著作。”——保罗·R·埃利希

“想象一下，一支足球队只以进球数来衡量自己的成功，而不计算失球数。这支球队可能一直在输球，却浑然不觉……”

长期以来，我们的经济模型都未能提供完整的图景。

这些模型和指标告诉我们，我们的经济之所以健康，是因为它们在增长。然而，这并没有考虑到，我们的增长是由一种我们免费获取并视为无限的资源驱动的：自然。几个世纪以来，我们一直将自然视为经济和财富的结合体，但如今我们比以往任何时候都更加清楚地认识到，我们对自然界的需求是不可持续的。仅仅看到部分图景已远远不够；我们的经济模型是时候展现全貌了。

在《论自然资本》一书中，剑桥大学知名经济学家帕尔塔·达斯古普塔爵士提出了一种开创性的全新经济学方法。他挑战了以往的一切，并提出疑问：如果我们像评估其他一切事物一样评估自然的价值，结果会如何？

《论自然资本》是一部大胆而具有突破性的著作，它迫切呼吁人们转变全球经济的关注点和结构，并有可能真正改变一切。

'The most important person you've never heard of' - The New York Times

'Partha Dasgupta provides the compass we urgently need… by bringing economics and ecology together, we can help save the natural world at what may be the last minute – and in doing so, save ourselves.’ - David Attenborough

'This is the best book in economics for a general reader since Adam Smith’s The Wealth of Nations.' - Paul R Ehrlich

‘Imagine a football team which measures its success only on the basis of the goals it scores and doesn’t count the goals it concedes. That football team could be losing right through without recognising it…’

For as long as they have existed, our economic models have served us an incomplete picture.

The models and metrics tells us that our economies are healthy because they are growing. However, this doesn't account for the fact that our growth is driven by a resource that we take for free and treat as infinite: nature. For centuries we have been using it as if it were both, but we know now, more than ever, that our demand on the natural world is unsustainable. It's no longer sufficient to only see part of the picture; it's time that our economic models show us the whole thing.

In On Natural Capital, renowned Cambridge economist Sir Partha Dasgupta lays out a seminal and groundbreaking new approach to economics. Challenging everything that has come before, he asks, what if we were to put a value on nature just as we value everything else?

An urgent call to transform the focus and structures of global economics, On Natural Capital is a bold and groundbreaking book that could, truly, change everything.
