我很喜欢书名《给世界的答案》,有两层含义:其一是让读者从书中找到自己对所处的世界所不了解的答案;其二是告诉世界,我们对它的认识,从而给它的答案。作者是现代物理学家,并一直研究物理史和科学史,以现有的观点去看待过往,从而讲解科学的起源与发展,以及不同学科间的联...
评分自从人类进入科学时代以来,科学通过认识和改变世界,体现了自己的力量,如今科学几乎等同于真理,是人们世界观主要的构成部分,也成为很大一部分人的信仰,亦或者是迷信。 科学一直试图解释我们这个世界因何存在?我们处在宇宙什么位置?世界是怎样运转的?也就是说科学最...
评分(首先说明一下,本文绝不能算书评,因为书是好书,怪我才疏学浅,所以我自认对于这样一本著作是绝无资格评说的,不如勉强称为“读后感”好了。) 在未读此书之前,仅凭封面就有了好感,也不知道是哪个困素使然,将这本书在我的大脑里同“历史”相连接,等到开心的拿到书并满...

A masterful commentary on the history of science from the Greeks to modern times, by Nobel Prize-winning physicist Steven Weinberg—a thought-provoking and important book by one of the most distinguished scientists and intellectuals of our time.
In this rich, irreverent, and compelling history, Nobel Prize-winning physicist Steven Weinberg takes us across centuries from ancient Miletus to medieval Baghdad and Oxford, from Plato’s Academy and the Museum of Alexandria to the cathedral school of Chartres and the Royal Society of London. He shows that the scientists of ancient and medieval times not only did not understand what we understand about the world—they did not understand what there is to understand, or how to understand it. Yet over the centuries, through the struggle to solve such mysteries as the curious backward movement of the planets and the rise and fall of the tides, the modern discipline of science eventually emerged. Along the way, Weinberg examines historic clashes and collaborations between science and the competing spheres of religion, technology, poetry, mathematics, and philosophy.
An illuminating exploration of the way we consider and analyze the world around us, To Explain the World is a sweeping, ambitious account of how difficult it was to discover the goals and methods of modern science, and the impact of this discovery on human knowledge and development.
