The World Until Yesterday pdf epub mobi 圖書描述

Most of us take for granted the features of our modern society, from air travel and telecommunications to literacy and obesity. Yet for nearly all of its six million years of existence, human society had none of these things. While the gulf that divides us from our primitive ancestors may seem unbridgeably wide, we can glimpse much of our former lifestyle in those largely traditional societies still or recently in existence. Societies like those of the New Guinea Highlanders remind us that it was only yesterday—in evolutionary time—when everything changed and that we moderns still possess bodies and social practices often better adapted to traditional than to modern conditions.

The World Until Yesterday provides a mesmerizing firsthand picture of the human past as it had been for millions of years—a past that has mostly vanished—and considers what the differences between that past and our present mean for our lives today.

This is Jared Diamond’s most personal book to date, as he draws extensively from his decades of field work in the Pacific islands, as well as evidence from Inuit, Amazonian Indians, Kalahari San people, and others. Diamond doesn’t romanticize traditional societies—after all, we are shocked by some of their practices—but he finds that their solutions to universal human problems such as child rearing, elder care, dispute resolution, risk, and physical fitness have much to teach us. A characteristically provocative, enlightening, and entertaining book, The World Until Yesterday will be essential and delightful reading.

評分

在傳統時代,人們常常認為,在遠古曾有一個伊甸園般的完美社會;而到瞭近現代,越來越多的人開始相信,真正的完美社會將在未來齣現。當然,也曾有一些人認為,烏托邦在這個時代就有,但卻是在遠方的某個異邦或海島上。總之,它不會是此時此地的社會——畢竟,在我們眼皮底下的...

評分

新的信息量並不多,有些章節還可以,有些章節則是彆處搬來,總得說來沒有什麼受益。圖書館藉的,藉期14天,因為有人在等,不能續藉,每天算著頁數,正好14天讀完。

評分

本來想從過去找到一些未來,但是沒堅持讀完……

評分

推薦,鑽石大叔的書一嚮有營養,不過也一如既往地羅嗦,所以要有耐心纔能讀完

巴布亞新幾內亞旅遊局官方推薦:)

評分

齣於Jared Diamond的赫赫威名啃完這本厚厚的學術類英文書。Diamond一如既往在交叉學科的研究方嚮上令我大開眼界,其研究和分析方法仍然是超一流的,隻是這本書裏大多結論尚嫌不夠強大鮮明。公平得說可能是Diamond在人類學和心理學、語言學、進化生物學等學科的交叉研究上走得太前麵瞭,大部份學者在這些方麵的探索還未開始或還未有重大成果。
