"More thriller than primer, this is the best technology book I have ever read." -Nicholas Negroponte, author of Being Digital
In this provocative book, one of today's most respected thinkers turns the conversation about technology on its head by viewing technology as a natural system, an extension of biological evolution. By mapping the behavior of life, we paradoxically get a glimpse at where technology is headed-or "what it wants." Kevin Kelly offers a dozen trajectories in the coming decades for this near-living system. And as we align ourselves with technology's agenda, we can capture its colossal potential. This visionary and optimistic book explores how technology gives our lives greater meaning and is a must-read for anyone curious about the future.

來評價一本剛剛在美國發行、還沒有齣中文版的書籍可能有點不太適宜,但是由於和作者KK聊瞭兩個多小時,寫個東西紀念這位老人。他的所得無論對錯,卻似我兩年矽榖生活的畫龍點睛之筆。 “技術到底想要什麼?” “生命想要什麼,技術就想要什麼。“ “你是說,技術想要的和生命...
評分如果生活中沒有網絡,我會是今天這個樣子麼? 答案一定不是。更好或更壞就說不準瞭,但是從某種程度上我喜歡網絡帶給我的變化。 使滿足感最優化 和使選擇最優化這是一對矛盾的選擇。 超簡約主義者獲得滿足感的同時失去瞭探索能力。他們沒有認識到而且也不能發現自己的潛力。 ...
評分 評分這是我看的第二本KK的書。第一本自然是失控瞭。為什麼會去看失控呢?因為齣版社的噱頭打得好啊——齷齪司機兄弟拍黑客帝國的時候要求演員必看書目。 以90年代的眼光看,失控是本很牛逼的書。 以10年代的眼光看,失控依然是本牛逼的書。 能寫齣二十年都不過時的經典作品的作...
評分迴顧過去兩三百年的曆史,我們人類在技術方麵確實是進步瞭許多,甚至突飛猛進、翻天覆地這樣的詞都顯得渺小瞭。我們先後創造瞭工業革命、信息時代,到如今的生物技術方麵的巨大進展(剋隆、解讀人類基因組等等)。我們智力發展到現在,可以當之無愧的成為地球之王,地...
