大作
评分还行吧...感觉好玄...大概是因为我是工科生....
评分“到底为什么我们发明了火药却没有发明枪去打欧洲反而在这里坐以待毙?到底为什么当年的四大文明都落得个挨打受穷的命?” -这本书最终试图给一个答案。
评分没看出啥逻辑谬误啊,四星半吧,找问题交给大家了~~索性可读性很强。
评分作者自己一句话总结:“History followed different courses for different peoples because of differences among peoples' environments, not because of biological differences among peoples themselves.” 这种通过把社会科学提出的高低问题洋洋洒洒地平摊给自然科学的手段,不失为anti-Racism一法。配合同获普利策的另一哈佛人Wilson的《Sociobiology: The New Synthesis》风味更佳。
Jared Diamond is Professor of Physiology at the University of California, Los Angeles. Trained in physiology, he later took up the study of ecology and has made fundamental contributions to both disciplines. He is among the worlds leading zoologists and experts on birds. He has made many trips to the mountains of New Guinea to study their unique birds, rediscovered their long-lost bowerbird, and advises New Guinea governments on conservation. As well as writing technical articles in his many fields of interest, Jared Diamond writes regularly for popular science journals. He is married, and has twin sons.
This book answers the most obvious, the most important, yet the most difficult question about human history: why history unfolded so differently on different continents. Geography and biography, not race, moulded the contrasting fates of Europeans, Asians, Native Americans, sub-Saharan Africans, and aboriginal Australians. An ambitious synthesis of history, biology, ecology and linguistics, Guns, Germs and Steel is one of the most important and humane works of popular science.
【读品】李牧之 如何理解人类的发展史?在挖掘冷冰冰的事实的时候,人们从制度转型的角度来试图解释为什么会这样。而政治、经济与社会则是理解制度转型最重要的三个方面。工业革命之前的历史书写多以政治、军事史为主线,《罗马帝国衰亡史》的作者吉本就自称"史书的主题是公共...
评分文明之痒 ----《枪炮、病菌与钢铁》 渔夫和鱼 文明与野蛮,从来都是一个问题。 早在十九世纪,素有人类学之父称的摩尔根在其名著《古代社会》里归纳出人类社会进化的三段模型:蒙昧——野蛮——文明,差不多同时期东方的福...
评分这个学期比较空闲,思考、阅读兴趣比较倾向于宏大叙事,而且一直在变化,从最开始的为什么会有穷人和富人,到为什么穷国和富国同样能力的人收入不同,到为什么会有穷国和富国,再到为什么会突然出现工业革命并在英国,到人类社会如何发展的及差异的原因,最后到为什么会出现人...
评分作者的观点与黄仁宇的类似。 1环境差异决定了当时的历史选择,从而对后来事件产生了决定性的影响。 2 各大洲的环境是不同的,从而有了不同的机遇。 3亚欧大陆的横向轴线,非洲与美洲的纵向轴线,以及澳洲的独立,影响了传播。 4环境差异决定了当时的历史选择,从而对后来事...
