威尔・杜兰特,是普利策奖花了50多年的时间完成了广受好评的重要著作:11卷本的《世界文明史》。他92岁时,还创作了《历史上的英雄》,这是他辉煌一生的最后作品。他的《哲学的故事》旨在让更多人了解哲学。 终其一生,杜兰特都热情地致力于将哲学从学术的象牙塔中解放出来,让它进入更多普通人的生活。在人类情谊和社会改革等出版物普遍流行之前,杜兰特就是这类著述的倡导者。通过自己的作品,杜兰特使全世界范围内的读者不断得到愉悦,也受到教益,使上百万人的生活更丰富,也使人们更宽容。

排除所有谄媚作者是如何杰出的言论,单说这本已深藏玄客轩多年,若不是整理书柜被此书砸到脑袋,我也不会“牛顿般”醍醐灌顶一下,写点感触。 当初2004年刚考上大学,我提前开学一个月就已经到了北京,其实以游玩为主。经家父引领,去拜访孙长江教授(当年《实践是检验真理的...
评分个人非常喜欢英雄崇拜,特别推崇前言的一句话—对英雄毫无禁忌的崇拜。拿这些巨人面前,我们就是侏儒。我也非常神往能像书中的一个学者一样每天晚上,都能够在偶像面前点一支蜡烛,默默地坐在他面前沉思。为自己,也为这个世界。个人最喜欢里面推荐“历史上最好的100本书”的那...
评分这本书,可以说是一个小小的图书馆,将人类文明史上所有的人类思想精华、艺术成就、历史事件、文学、诗作、音乐、绘画、哲学、宗教等等几乎所有重要的人物及书籍以历史事件顺序进行了汇编,为我们展现了人类文明史的清晰脉络。虽然书中提到的思想、人物、书籍,对我们来说不可...
评分政治经济是社会的骨架,而伟大人物才是历史的命脉。 历史是由人的活动构成的,是由人的思想推动的,不能仅仅解读成一串串死气沉沉的数字和事实。其中最值得关注的,是那些对人类文明作出持久贡献的英雄人物和他们的思想。他们完成了各自的时代使命之后,汇集到一个永恒的精神领...

A wise and witty compendium of the greatest thoughts, greatest minds, and greatest books of all time -- listed in accessible and succinct form -- by one of the world's greatest scholars. From the "Hundred Best Books" to the "Ten Greatest Thinkers" to the "Ten Greatest Poets," here is a concise collection of the world's most significant knowledge. For the better part of a century, Will Durant dwelled upon -- and wrote about -- the most significant eras, individuals, and achievements of human history. His selections have finally been brought together in a single, compact volume. Durant eloquently defends his choices of the greatest minds and ideas, but he also stimulates readers into forming their own opinions, encouraging them to shed their surroundings and biases and enter "The Country of the Mind," a timeless realm where the heroes of our species dwell. From a thinker who always chose to exalt the positive in the human species, The Greatest Minds and Ideas of All Time stays true to Durant's optimism. This is a book containing the absolute best of our heritage, passed on for the benefit of future generations. Filled with Durant's renowned wit, knowledge, and unique ability to explain events and ideas in simple and exciting terms, this is a pocket-size liberal arts and humanist curriculum in one volume.
"If a man is fortunate he will, before he dies, gather up as much as he can of his civilized heritage and transmit it to his children.And to his final breath he will be grateful for this inexhaustible legacy, knowing that it is our nourishing mother and our lasting life."
