主题是好的,内容也不错。但读完感觉也就仅此而已。某北大教授在微博指出此书翻译上舛误较多,对细节把握不够深入。说感觉匆匆忙忙就出了中译本,质量堪忧。另外我并不理解为什么一本书刚被推出来的时候就成了现象级畅销书,这不是在中国才开始卖吗?亦或是直接拿了外国的销量...
评分这本书的优点在于方法论上面上面,不再限于国别而是使用了每个时期的主体文明潮流作为一种主题去研究,所以虽然具体史料细节上并没有特别亮眼惊人的地方,但是作为入门级历史读物在整体思路上是比较优秀的。 人类文明史的革新也可以被看做是文明组织形式的方法论的革新,率先...

The sun is setting on the Western world. Slowly but surely, the direction in which the world spins has reversed: where for the last five centuries the globe turned westwards on its axis, it now turns to the east.
For centuries, fame and fortune was to be found in the west - in the New World of the Americas. Today, it is the east which calls out to those in search of adventure and riches. The region stretching from eastern Europe and sweeping right across Central Asia deep into China and India, is taking centre stage in international politics, commerce and culture - and is shaping the modern world.
This region, the true centre of the earth, is obscure to many in the English-speaking world. Yet this is where civilization itself began, where the world's great religions were born and took root. The Silk Roads were no exotic series of connections, but networks that linked continents and oceans together. Along them flowed ideas, goods, disease and death. This was where empires were won - and where they were lost. As a new era emerges, the patterns of exchange are mirroring those that have criss-crossed Asia for millennia. The Silk Roads are rising again.
A major reassessment of world history, The Silk Roads is an important account of the forces that have shaped the global economy and the political renaissance in the re-emerging east.
全是有个全新的视角的,主线还是丝绸之路,其实说的并不是丝绸,富含深意

评分读的时候会觉得欧美帝国主义好虚伪呀,他们的财富来源好不光彩呀,需要的时候奴隶啦鸦片啦武器啦都是正当的贸易 。但他们不会禁止自己人写这样的书,任其畅销,不得不说是了不起的帝国主义。
评分感觉人物地名和线索繁多的历史书不合适听,如果有时间找来慢慢看也行收获会多些。
