Hardback. Zustand: Fair. In this unique account of human excellence, Charles Murray compiles a comprehensive list of people who have been essential to the worlds of literature, music, art, philosophy, and the sciences.

Softcover. Zustand: Fair. Leichte Gebrauchsspuren; Verformung des Buches. Zadny socialni program se nemuze vymanit z pasti, kterou bychom mohli nazyvat Murrayho paradoxem. Cim ucinnejsi je program, tim vice podporuje chovani, ktere chtel puvodne eliminovat. Predstavme si, ze existuje zazracna pilulka na narkomanie. Kazdy by ji chtel vyzkouset, protoze by mel zajisteno vyleceni, coz by vedlo k narustu uzivani drog. Pokud by socialni programy fungovaly jako takova pilulka, staly by se kontraproduktivnimi. Lide by se nezajimali o praci, pokud by meli jistotu rychleho vyreseni svych problemu. Ekonomove by to nazvali moralnim hazardem. Naopak, pokud program nefunguje, danovi poplatnici by utraceli penize jen proto, aby si "koupili ciste svedomi". Murray doklada svuj paradox na programu pomoci svobodnym matkam, ktery byl tak stedry, ze se tisice matek rozhodly nevdavat, aby si udrzely podporu. Po letech existence programu se pocet deti zijicich pouze s matkou nejenze nesnizil, ale vzrostl. Program take moralne oslabil deti, ktere se naucily spolehat na socialni davky, coz vedlo k nezamestnanosti a chudobe, cemuz mel program puvodne zabranit. Murray ukazuje, ze vynalozene prostredky casto neodpovidaji kvalite vysledku, a jeho kniha by mela byt povinnou cetbou pro tvurce socialnich programu a politiky.…
