文/曼佳 最近一直被人推荐《人类简史》这本书,一个70后的以色列历史学家写的风靡全球的著作。全书讲的是人类的故事,从历史又是从哲学的角度,讲述人从生物学的起源是什么样的,从宇宙的哪里来,要到未来的哪里去的故事,这样的书,是要很安静的环境和很安静的心才能好好读完...
评分《人类简史》是本很火的书,火到国内市场还出现仿冒作了。但是在本右派看来,这不过说明,学院左派分子依然死不悔改。换了一套术语,其实换汤不换药。 在评论或者说批评此书之前,我先大概介绍一些老左派分子和新左派分子们的区别。 老左派分子,就是马大胡子开始的。他们...

评分这本书给我的观感,一言以蔽之,即为“标新立异”。作者结合了自己所涉猎过的许多方面,试图从一个全新的广阔的角度来解读人类史,但由于他的涉猎广而不精,以至于我不得不说,他几乎在任何一方面都做得不好。仅就几个我比较了解的领域而言,作为一个半外行,我仍然能够挑出他...
评分本书评仅针对第十九章内容。 小学时看过一个关于太阳演化的科普片,说是大约50亿年以后,太阳将演化为红巨星,体积膨胀并吞并数个行星,包括地球在内。 也就是说,地球终将灭亡。 后来学了物理,知道这事虽不是千真万确,但也八九不离十了。当然,50亿年是个过于漫长的时间,人...

100,000 years ago, at least six human species inhabited the earth. Today there is just one.
Us.
Homo sapiens.
How did our species succeed in the battle for dominance? Why did our foraging ancestors come together to create cities and kingdoms? How did we come to believe in gods, nations and human rights; to trust money, books and laws; and to be enslaved by bureaucracy, timetables and consumerism? And what will our world be like in the millennia to come?
In Sapiens, Dr Yuval Noah Harari spans the whole of human history, from the very first humans to walk the earth to the radical - and sometimes devastating - breakthroughs of the Cognitive, Agricultural and Scientific Revolutions. Drawing on insights from biology, anthropology, palaeontology and economics, he explores how the currents of history have shaped our human societies, the animals and plants around us, and even our personalities. Have we become happier as history has unfolded? Can we ever free our behaviour from the heritage of our ancestors? And what, if anything, can we do to influence the course of the centuries to come?
Bold, wide-ranging and provocative, Sapiens challenges everything we thought we knew about being human: our thoughts, our actions, our power ... and our future.
格局宏大,诚实,清醒,作者尝试在打通自然科学,文学,社科的限制,将之统一在科学的视域下,人类的演化之路由此较为清晰地铺陈开来,绝对的天才之作。
评分格局宏大,诚实,清醒,作者尝试在打通自然科学,文学,社科的限制,将之统一在科学的视域下,人类的演化之路由此较为清晰地铺陈开来,绝对的天才之作。
评分没啥太大意思,进化人类学,经济学,传播学的杂俎,纯练听力了
评分千万,千万不要把你的钱浪费在这本书上。以后再看这种「大历史」、"a brief history of ..."的书就剁手。
评分绝对的神作!
