'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.

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.

智人发明出了许许多多的想象现实,也因而发展出许许多多的行为模式,而这正是我们所谓“文化”的主要成分。等到文化出现,就再也无法停止改变和发展,而这些无法阻挡的变化,就成了我们说的“历史”。于是,认识革命正是历史从生物学中脱离而独立存在的起点。在这之前,所有人...
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...

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).
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
评分好书
评分怎么说呢...以作者的年纪来写这么浩浩荡荡的人类学历史难免会为搏出彩而力求新颖与激扬
评分Mind-blowing!!!
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。
