几十年前,一个叫巴布斯特的人把1789年到1941年的一些战争数据输入计算机中进行概率统计,得出一个结论:从1789年到1941年间,有着民主选举的政府的独立国家之间没有发生过战争,根据统计出的事实,他认为:只要有了民主,便有了和平。 布什政府显然是这一“民主和平论...

Starred Review. Former foreign editor of Time, Ramo pushes the reader into uncomfortable yet exhilarating places with controversial ways of thinking about global challenges (e.g., studying why Hezbollah is the most efficiently run Islamic militant group). His book, which lays bare the flaws in current thinking on everything from American political influence to the economy, is designed to change the physics of the way we think. Analyzing the failure of the Bush administration's Democratic Peace Theory and the fruitless efforts at a Mideast peace process, Ramo suggests that people must change the role they imagine for themselves from architects of a system they can control to gardeners in a living ecosystem. Ramo's message—that the most dynamic forces emerge from outside elite circles: geeks, iconoclasts and maligned populations—is persuasively argued. And while the author doesn't explicitly offer up solutions, he goads readers to approach problems in unexpected ways. His revelatory work argues that there must be some audacity in thinking before there can be any audacity of hope. (Apr.)

Read in Merville Residence in UCD. A pretty neat book, with good examples of how innovation could make a difference. I still remembered the Nintendo example.
