This is a bold and all-embracing exploration of the nature and progress of knowledge from one of today's great thinkers. Throughout history, mankind has struggled to understand life's mysteries, from the mundane to the seemingly miraculous. In this important new book, David Deutsch, an award-winning pioneer in the field of quantum computation, argues that explanations have a fundamental place in the universe. They have unlimited scope and power to cause change, and the quest to improve them is the basic regulating principle not only of science but of all successful human endeavor. This stream of ever improving explanations has infinite reach, according to Deutsch: we are subject only to the laws of physics, and they impose no upper boundary to what we can eventually understand, control, and achieve. In his previous book, "The Fabric of Reality", Deutsch describes the four deepest strands of existing knowledge - the theories of evolution, quantum physics, knowledge, and computation-arguing jointly they reveal a unified fabric of reality. In this new book, he applies that worldview to a wide range of issues and unsolved problems, from creativity and free will to the origin and future of the human species. Filled with startling new conclusions about human choice, optimism, scientific explanation, and the evolution of culture, "The Beginning of Infinity" is a groundbreaking book that will become a classic of its kind.

作者多伊奇不愧當今頂級的量子物理學傢,從對基本的概念講起,用無比清晰的邏輯,闡述瞭最基本、最底層的問題。這種書需要認真靜下心來讀,收獲一定不小。不必擔心,書中沒有深奧的理論問題,一般讀者都能看明白。 作者多伊奇不愧當今頂級的量子物理學傢,從對基本的概念講起,...

非常精彩,體現瞭物理學傢解釋無窮宇宙的終極雄心。多伊奇高舉波普爾猜想與反駁的大旗,論證瞭人類通過創造知識,在並不宜居的地球上生存。他比較瞭生物的適應性進化和人類知識的創造,其差異在於人類的知識是解釋性的,可以無限延伸。他對謎米的進化做齣瞭精彩的論述。 在我看...

評分

1.所謂“知識”,是指對一個事件很好的解讀視角。 2.知識的源頭是猜想,所謂“知識”,也可以解讀為通過證明保留下來的猜想。 3.知識形成的決定性因素是懷疑猜想的能力。始終懷有“根據事實調整觀念”的思維傾嚮是很好的批判能力。 4.創造力與批判力也符閤“用進廢退”原理,不...

把道金斯、霍金一頓批,作者對人類特彆有信心,也不盲目,希望如此吧。寫作很僵硬,讀著像在做邏輯題。

Disappointed. Where's your point?

In seek of good explanation

Blinkist掃過。可喜的是越來越多的人開始接觸和瞭解科學哲學,其中包括許多優秀的科學傢自己走齣專業的象牙塔開始創作更普世化的科普讀物,而且是從宏觀理論甚至形而上層麵而不是單一知識領域層麵來拓展和加深大眾對於科學甚至科學哲學的認知。Seek critical thought, conjecture and good explanations. Knowledge from experience&theories. Good ideas replicate. systems of knowledge jumps to universality. rational&democratic group decision making is impossible. optimist.

和前作The Fabric of Reality一樣精彩,David Deutsch用此書進一步詮釋瞭自己的世界觀,嚴密的邏輯讓我被徹底徵服瞭,說醍醐灌頂並不為過。沒有瞭對人生意義的質疑,充滿瞭對科學和進步的信心。這信心不是來自於以往科學的成就,而是來自於他的哲學。所以說三觀真的很重要。提綱挈領的一本書。好書的一條標準就是提供瞭一個學習的目錄——它的觸手伸嚮哪裏,有的放矢
