驱动这个世界的不是贪婪,而是嫉妒。 --沃伦 巴菲特 这句话从资本主义的绝对代表嘴中说出,尤其令人回味。在穷查理宝典中有一段为何不应嫉妒他人的经典描述:“在乎别人赚钱速度比你快可以说是最要不得的原罪之一。嫉妒是愚蠢的,这几乎是唯一一种你得不到任何快乐的原罪...
评分早在八年前,我就买了这本书,但它现在还躺在我的书架子上。无他,读起来太累,那时我比现在更加幼稚。 一年之前,饭后茶余,偶然和教授(物理系)谈起某些我们以为荒谬的社会学理论时,他认为那些谬误源于部分社会学家对他们研究对象——人类——的无知。那时他...
评分我其实是断断续续读过些别的进化论、基因和进化心理学的流行读物以后才看了这本经典的。虽然悬念少些,但经典就是经典,每页都非常值得。 基因和进化论放在一起,完全可以诠释生命的来龙去脉。这是一个大体上自洽的体系,虽然很多细节还可以不断完善。Dawkins其实说,只要是碰...
评分原文自本人新浪博客(http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_538f46f70100hn7s.html),转载请注明。 豆瓣上文字无格式。 《冬吴相对论》的梁冬两次在节目里提到了他在看这本书。引起了我的兴趣,于是从图书馆借来翻了一翻。我读的其实不是左图这本,是科学出版社1981年12月的版本...

Richard Dawkins' brilliant reformulation of the theory of natural selection has the rare distinction of having provoked as much excitement and interest outside the scientific community as within it. His theories have helped change the whole nature of the study of social biology, and have forced thousands of readers to rethink their beliefs about life.
In his internationally bestselling, now classic volume, The Selfish Gene , Dawkins explains how the selfish gene can also be a subtle gene. The world of the selfish gene revolves around savage competition, ruthless exploitation, and deceit, and yet, Dawkins argues, acts of apparent altruism do exist in nature. Bees, for example, will commit suicide when they sting to protect the hive, and birds will risk their lives to warn the flock of an approaching hawk.
This 30th anniversary edition of Dawkins' fascinating book retains all original material, including the two enlightening chapters added in the second edition. In a new Introduction the author presents his thoughts thirty years after the publication of his first and most famous book, while the inclusion of the two-page original Foreword by brilliant American scientist Robert Trivers shows the enthusiastic reaction of the scientific community at that time. This edition is a celebration of a remarkable exposition of evolutionary thought, a work that has been widely hailed for its stylistic brilliance and deep scientific insights, and that continues to stimulate whole new areas of research today.
Some allegories are so shoddy they're better off gone, and Mr Dawkins does whine too much at times.
评分看了这本书才知道我不过只是基因们的一个生存机器、一个拷贝,我那一万小时倒计时也只是基因们提前编制的程序的一个不足为道的执行。但是,知道我这个生存机器也是宏大漫长的基因战争历史的一个片断,我又觉得这有“make a dent”的浪漫之意。Go gene! 给我灭了其它基因!

评分其实一直没看完,总觉得哪里不对劲,昨天看到一个词豁然开朗,这根本就是亚里士多德式的目的论!!给无生命的东西人为填上意识,即使能自圆其说但是无视客观事实和论证也就没有说服力
评分很好
