The classic science fiction novel—the basis for Stanley Kubrick’s immortal 1968 film—that changed the way we look at the stars and ourselves.

From the savannas of Africa at the dawn of mankind to the rings of Saturn as man ventures to the outer rim of our solar system, 2001: A Space Odyssey is a journey unlike any other.

This allegory about humanity’s exploration of the universe—and the universe’s reaction to humanity—is a hallmark achievement in storytelling that follows the crew of the spacecraft Discovery as they embark on a mission to Saturn. Their vessel is controlled by HAL 9000, an artificially intelligent supercomputer capable of the highest level of cognitive functioning that rivals—and perhaps threatens—the human mind.

Grappling with space exploration, the perils of technology, and the limits of human power, 2001: A Space Odyssey continues to be an enduring classic of cinematic scope.

好久好久没有逛书店了，今天送儿子进了学校，自己犹豫了很久，终于还是决心去逛逛，但在出发前下定决心，除非特别喜欢的，一定不买。 结果真的只买了一本书，还是本闲书，是英国科幻大师阿瑟·克拉克的“太空漫游”四部曲之一《2061：太空漫游》。是在豆瓣书店的小说架上看到的...

比电影好看。看电影压根就没看明白怎么回事。看电影前要是先看看这本书就好了。
