具体描述

This is a book about ten great ideas.Each chapter is an attempt to savor one idea that has been discovered by several of the world's civilizations - to question it scientifically, and to extract from it the lessons that apply to our modern lives.Jonathan Haidt skillfully combines two genres#151;philosophical wisdom and scientific research#151;delighting the reader with surprising insights. He explains, for example, why we have such difficulty controlling ourselves and sticking to our plans; why no achievement brings lasting happiness, yet a few changes in your life can have profound effects, and why even confirmed atheists experience spiritual elevation. In a stunning final chapter, Haidt addresses the grand question "How can I live a meaningful life?," offering an original answer that draws on the rich inspiration of both philosophy and science.

读后感

【今年第一本五星好书，有对“如果幸福”这种大问题抽丝剥茧的分析，也有对“如何更好地工作”这种小道理循循善诱的教导。书名“象与骑象人”这种心理意象的阐释，本身就很有新意也很有利于解读很多生活中的心态。内容真的很充实而广泛，且要言不烦。】 “在人类这种超群居社...  

人通过心理滤镜来看这个世界，会出现某些情绪，会对事件有反应。心理的运作非常庞杂，我们看得到的只是其中一个小角落。 激情为辔，理性为轭。大象是指我们内心的感觉、本能反应、情绪和直觉，这些是自动化系统的组成要件。骑象人是有意识的、控制后的思考。大部分的心理活动都...  

励志箴言的头头是道，都是“真理式的废话”，它们仅是些形容词。它扼杀了多元化的价值观，将“成功”当成惟一目的，忽略人性的存在。 而本书则以新的观点阐述情感与理性的关系。倘若我们在不知个中缘由的情况下，多半无法驯服心中的大象。因为你没有和它做“朋友”，也没有去...  

开始看的时候略显枯燥~~ 对我这个只是拿心理学当喜好而没认真钻研过的人来说，陌生的名词太多了~~所以看的有点晕，有点累，有点迷迷糊糊~ 不过个别可以看的很懂的章节，看完后真的是受益匪浅。 里面举的几个例子也是相当的好。 比如正方形和空间的例子~等等~~ 我相信这本...

人象分裂的隐喻及其缘起 这是一本有关人们如何通过身心合一来实现幸福并获得成长的书。为了阐述其观点，乔纳森•海特在开篇就借助了象与骑象人的隐喻。实际上这一手法并不新鲜：柏拉图就曾把心灵（soul）比喻为马车，马车是由“心理”冷静、理性的那一面驾驭...
