ccc讀的第一本書,僅僅是因為字比較大而已。。。不知道為甚麼評分那麼高。有點觀點不能苟同吧。。。
評分看第一章就夠瞭
評分看瞭40%決定不看下去瞭,作者的研究太浮於錶麵(也可能是因為我沒讀下去),而且在全球化(其實就是西方化)的大前提下,繼續做東西方思維差異研究還有很大價值嗎?

當一位跟他一道研究社會心理學和邏輯推理問題的中國學生有一天說瞭這樣一段話時,他深感震驚:“你知道,你我之間的差彆在於我認為世界是一個圓圈,而你認為它是一條直綫。中國人相信世界是在不斷變化的,但事物總是不斷地迴到其先前的狀態。他們關注許多現象,尋找事物之間的關係,他們認為不能瞭解整體你就不能理解局部。西方人生活的世界較為簡單、明確。他們把注意力放在突齣的物體或人上,而不是更全麵的現象上。他們認為他們可以控製事件的發生,因為他們瞭解支配事物行為的規律。”
From Publishers Weekly
This book may mark the beginning of a new front in the science wars. Nisbett, an eminent psychologist and co-author of a seminal Psychological Review paper on how people talk about their decision making, reports on some of his latest work in cultural psychology. He contends that "[h]uman cognition is not everywhere the same"-that those brought up in Western and East Asian cultures think differently from one another in scientifically measurable ways. Such a contention pits his work squarely against evolutionary psychology (as articulated by Steven Pinker and others) and cognitive science, which assume all appreciable human characteristics are "hard wired." Initial chapters lay out the traditional differences between Aristotle and Confucius, and the social practices that produced (and have grown out of) these differing "homeostatic approaches" to the world: Westerners tend to inculcate individualism and choice (40 breakfast cereals at the supermarket), while East Asians are oriented toward group relations and obligations ("the tall poppy is cut down" remains a popular Chinese aphorism). Next, Nisbett presents his actual experiments and data, many of which measure reaction times in recalling previously shown objects. They seem to show East Asians (a term Nisbett uses as a catch-all for Chinese, Koreans, Japanese and others) measurably more holistic in their perceptions (taking in whole scenes rather than a few stand-out objects). Westerners, or those brought up in Northern European and Anglo-Saxon-descended cultures, have a "tunnel-vision perceptual style" that focuses much more on identifying what's prominent in certain scenes and remembering it. Writing dispassionately yet with engagement, Nisbett explains the differences as "an inevitable consequence of using different tools to understand the world." If his explanation turns out to be generally accepted, it means a big victory for memes in their struggle with genes.
From Scientific American
Nisbett, a psychologist and Distinguished University Professor at the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, used to believe that "all human groups perceive and reason in the same way." A series of events and studies led him gradually to quite another view, that Asians and Westerners "have maintained very different systems of thought for thousands of years." Different how? "The collective or interdependent nature of Asian society is consistent with Asians' broad, contextual view of the world and their belief that events are highly complex and determined by many factors. The individualistic or independent nature of Western society seems consistent with the Western focus on particular objects in isolation from their context and with Westerners' belief that they can know the rules governing objects and therefore can control the objects' behavior." Nisbett explores areas that manifest these different approaches--among them medicine, law, science, human rights and international relations. Are the societal differences so great that they will lead to conflict? Nisbett thinks not. "I believe the twain shall meet by virtue of each moving in the direction of the other."
为什么西方人见木,东方人见森?东西方思维差异的原因何在?这本书试图回答这些问题. 匆匆读完前两章,我就断定这是一本不可多得的好书! 其中启发最大的是,东西方思维方式的差异在于社会经济环境与社会实践的不同。但从中我得到的最大启发是:中国为什么多中央极权?是否和...
評分前半部分很像读过的一篇论文,“Culture and Systems of Thought: Holistic versus Analytic Cognition”(Psychological Review)。基本上没什么新东西,还在想:难道这作者是写不出论文了所以转行挖学术料以飨普罗大众?后来查了下那篇论文的作者,惊讶的发现是同一个人,coa...
評分标题很老火,内容是讲东西方思维差异的。 以往也有过这样的说,不过统统是一些主观的判断,作者在这个方面下了不少功夫,其中有很多实验性质的内容。估计不是很多人看得下去,这也是东西方思维模式的差异吧。 其实改一个平实的名字,这书应该能有更多人看。 有意者,可以写一个...
評分这本书是我大学一个课程的教科书,书浅显易懂用哲学的方式阐述了理论的来源,用例证或者说用实验证明了自己的观点,很让人信服。从希腊发源的西方思维与中国发源的亚洲思维的差异被很好地论证。 但是当我看了书中的两个实验过后对于它的取样产生了质疑,两次样本一次的样本中有...
評分1.人们可以通过特定目标的培训来改变自己的思维习惯,以及行为。 2.不同群体特有的思维过程存在很大差异。 3.思维过程与对世界本质的信念是一致的,人们通过思维过程形成对世界的感知。 4.使用不同的工具可以使人们产生不同的理解。 5.人们的思维方式是自我增强、自我平衡的体...
