'I encourage all of us, whatever our beliefs, to question the basic narratives of our world, to connect past developments with present concerns, and not to be afraid of controversial issues.' Dr Yuval Noah Harari has a PhD in History from the University of Oxford and now lectures at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, specialising in World History. His research focuses on broad questions, such as: What is the relation between history and biology? Is there justice in history? Did people become happier as history unfolded? 65,000 people have signed up to his online course, A Brief History of Humankind. Sapiens is an international bestseller and is being published in more than 30 languages worldwide. In 2012 Harari was awarded the annual Polonsky Prize for Creativity and Originality in the Humanistic Disciplines.
This is The Sunday Times Bestseller. Planet Earth is 4.5 billion years old. In just a fraction of that time, one species among countless others has conquered it. Us. We are the most advanced and most destructive animals ever to have lived. What makes us brilliant? What makes us deadly? What makes us Sapiens? In this bold and provocative book, Yuval Noah Harari explores who we are, how we got here and where we're going. Sapiens is a thrilling account of humankind's extraordinary history - from the Stone Age to the Silicon Age - and our journey from insignificant apes to rulers of the world. "It tackles the biggest questions of history and of the modern world, and it is written in unforgettably vivid language. You will love it!" (Jared Diamond, author of Guns, Germs and Steel).
这是我在微信读书App讲《人类简史》的文稿,37分钟音频版请登录微信读书App,直接点击《人类简史》即可听我讲的音频版哦。 我们为什么对历史感兴趣? 又该如何阅读历史? 有人说,日光之下,并无新事,所有的事情,都在历史上有章可循,于是,阅读历史,我们可以发现必然的规律...
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...
评分人从哪里来?要到哪里去?这是古今中外哲学家们契而不舍思索的问题。从神创论到达尔文演化论,对第一个问题的解答似已尘埃落定,如今大部分人相信人从猴子演变而来,一小部分人仍坚信人是上帝(神)的独特创造。第二个问题的答案却随着人类社会几何速度的变化发展越发扑朔迷...
评分 评分老實講,我不知道該怎麼評述《人類簡史》。本書那飽含當代人優越的惡意寫法,讓學術研究淪為地攤貨,令我讀起來十分不悅,但仔細想想,這本書之所以這麼熱門,接受度還特別地高,不就表示普通人愛的就是這種酸來罵去但毫無建樹的「批判」精神嗎? 平心而論,它的確有專業的一面...
Enlightening book that guides you through the human history. Profound yet concise analysis of the human culture, society, science and development. Wonderful reading.
评分The Animal that Became a God.
评分如果一切都是人类想出来的,会让我对民主、公正、自由之类的词语感受不同吗?我想不会,因为“想”正是进化给予人类最珍贵的礼物之一,而“想”所创造的东西,哪怕不具备实体并且内涵如流沙般变动,也不因此而变得不重要。
评分中英文兩本一起讀的,從春節放假開始,到後來上班很忙一星期只能讀幾頁,於是前後花了差不多兩個月才讀完。信息量巨大,在作者淺顯的敘述和簡單的例子中終於重新認識和理解了中學歷史課上怎麼都聽不懂的人類的過去,也結合了自己親身經歷的這三十年來的種種,陷入無限的哲學思考和心理學反思中。
评分第一本在读的英文原版,希望是第一本完整读完的。约90天 结果很遗憾不是读完的第一本。 7万年的历史,从东非的起源,到意识革命,到熬死了所有其他兄弟种族,到散布全世界,到农业革命到阶级分化到创造钱、宗教、帝国这三个实现人类大一统的工具到科学革命到大航海时代到资本爆发到人类的自我改造
