Dynasties is rich in anecdote and will bring pleasure to the
many readers who admired Landes''s last book. . . . It offers the
same combination of shrewd insight and an engagingly conversational
style. Niall Ferguson, The New Republic

| 內容簡介: |
From the author of the New York Times
來源:香港大書城megBookStore,http://www.megbook.com.hk bestseller The Wealth and Poverty of Nations, a fascinating
look at the crossroads of kin and coin
David S. Landes has earned a reputation as a brilliant writer and
iconoclast among economic historians. In his latest acclaimed work,
he takes a revealing look at the quality that distinguishes a third
of today''s Fortune 500 companies: family ownership. From the
banking fortunes of Rothschild and Morgan to the automobile empires
of Ford and Toyota, Landes explores thirteen different dynasties,
revealing what lay behind their successes-and how extravagance, bad
behavior, and poor enterprise brought some of them to their knees.
A colorful history that is full of surprising conclusions,
Dynasties is an engrossing mix of ambition, eccentricity,
and wealth.
