本书是是兰小欢多年教学、调研与研究内容的凝练，将经济学原理与中国经济发展的实践有机融合，以地方政府投融资为主线，深入浅出地论述了中国经济的发展，笔触简练客观，并广泛采纳了各领域学者的最新研究成果。全书分上下两篇。上篇解释微观机制，包括地方政府的基本事务、收支、土地融资和开发、投资和债务等；下篇解释这些微观行为与宏观现象的联系，包括城市化和工业化、房价、地区差异、债务风险、国内经济结构失衡、国际贸易冲突等。最后一章提炼和总结全书内容。
通过对中国政治经济体系的论述，作者简明地刻画了地方政府进行经济治理的基本方式，并指出，中国政府通过深度介入工业化和城市化的进程，在发展经济的同时逐步推动了市场机制的建立和完善，以一种有别于所谓发达国家经验的方式实现了经济奇迹。基于对改革历程与社会矛盾的回顾与分析，作者也在书中对当前推进的市场化改革与政府转型进行了解读，帮助读者增进对中国发展现实的把握。

Two prize-winning economists show how economics, when done right, can help us solve the thorniest social and political problems of our day.
Figuring out how to deal with today's critical economic problems is perhaps the great challenge of our time. Much greater than space travel or perhaps even the next revolutionary medical breakthrough, what is at stake is the whole idea of the good life as we have known it.
Immigration and inequality, globalization and technological disruption, slowing growth and accelerating climate change--these are sources of great anxiety across the world, from New Delhi and Dakar to Paris and Washington, DC. The resources to address these challenges are there--what we lack are ideas that will help us jump the wall of disagreement and distrust that divides us. If we succeed, history will remember our era with gratitude; if we fail, the potential losses are incalculable.
In this revolutionary book, renowned MIT economists Abhijit V. Banerjee and Esther Duflo take on this challenge, building on cutting-edge research in economics explained with lucidity and grace. Original, provocative, and urgent, Good Economics for Hard Times makes a persuasive case for an intelligent interventionism and a society built on compassion and respect. It is an extraordinary achievement, one that shines a light to help us appreciate and understand our precariously balanced world.
