具体描述

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.

《2001：太空漫游》是一部非常经典又十分纯正的科幻小说。说它经典是因为这部作品从创作出来至今已经半个多世纪，翻译成多国语言出版，而且还是一版再版，拥有难以计数的粉丝。 说它纯正，是因为作者写的就是一部纯粹的科幻小说，只有科学的幻想，而不含其他冗余成分。比如说前...  

每当我说起自己喜欢的东西，总唠叨个没完，陷入“知无不言、言无不尽”的恶性循环。这未见得不是个好习惯，在我这里却很容易转化为一个“坏”习惯，那就是勉强自己的大脑极速运转——超出负荷能力地去追溯、思辨、归纳，打扫记忆的尘埃。一周来，关于“太空漫游”四部曲我说了...

用户评价

It's not only about future, it's about our past, a combination of science fiction and evolution of human being.

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。

啃了原版，依然惊艳

相比三体，有点浪漫的色彩。人类智力的来源是外来超级智能，最后一个肉体凡胎被转变成了无实体的超级智能存在，成了star child, master of the world-Earth
