1: In the rich world the modern economic problem, the Skidelskys say, is how to live well amid plenty, not how to survive amid scarcity. Yet the West still chases slavishly after ever-higher gross domestic product, a purely material measure that takes no account of the blessings of nature or leisure.|| Humanity has become insatiable , in short.|| It is time to stop and rediscover the “good life”. This they identify with a list of “basic goods”: health, security, respect, “personality” (autonomy, if you prefer), harmony with nature, and leisure.

1:斯基德尔斯基父子认为富国的现代经济问题是如何在富裕中更好生活，而非如何于贫瘠中生存。但是西方国家仍盲目追求更高的国内生产总值，他们完全以物质衡量一切，无视自然和放松为我们带来的益处。简而言之，人性变得贪得无厌。我们应该停下脚步，重新发掘“生活中的美好事物”。有人还列了一张表叫《生活必备的美好事物》，其中包括健康，安全保障，尊重，“自我个性”（如果你喜欢，可以称之为自我把握），与大自然的协调，还有身心放松的状态。
