Loosely based on the lives of 19th-century explorer Alexander von Humboldt and a contemporary, mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss, Kehlmann's novel, a German bestseller widely heralded as an exemplar of "new" German fiction, injects musty history with shots of whimsy and irony. Humboldt voyages to South America to map the Orinoco River, climb the Chimborazo peak in Ecuador and measure "every river, every mountain and every lake in his path." Gauss is the hedgehog to Humboldt's fox, leaping out of bed on his wedding night to jot down a formula and rarely leaving his hometown of Göttingen. The two meet at a scientific congress in 1828, when Germany is in turmoil after the fall of Napoleon. Other luminaries appear throughout the novel, including a senile Immanuel Kant, Louis Daguerre and Thomas Jefferson. The narrative is notable for its brisk pacing, lively prose and wry humor (curmudgeonly Gauss laments, for instance, how "every idiot would be able to... invent the most complete nonsense" about him 200 years hence), which keenly complements Kehlmann's intelligent, if not especially deep, treatment of science, mathematics and reason at the end of the Enlightenment.

读后感
《测量世界》，昨天回到住处，搁在桌上，打开它，一切就都发生了，七点到十二点，那把木椅子格格响，我打着寒摆终于读完它。小说结构用的是双主角双线式，在故事结尾处交汇，把情节交给一位先前不起眼的次要人物。丹尼尔·克尔曼30岁了，这结构掌握得那么不尽人意，可见他不是...
评分未知的世界，并不是每一个人都可以去深入——怀着好奇与热情，理解那最为真实的一面——即使，大多数人在为了现实而忙碌——仍然有人为了无用而探究世界，那无用却成为引导世界的指南。在丹尼尔•凯曼的《丈量世界》中，两条平行的故事线同时进行着，最后终于相交；而数学家...
评分看了这本书，才知道原来高斯经常逛妓院，洪堡（不是创建洪堡大学的那位，创立洪堡大学那个洪堡是这个的哥哥）是个性无能。就连高斯新婚之夜俩人的前戏都写的那么曼妙，我在想这个作者是不是搭了架能隐身的时空机回到了那个时代分别跟踪了高斯和洪堡才知道的这些事。 ...
评分 评分两位伟大的天才，带着各自人性的弱点，用不同的方式拓延了人类对世界的认知。穷尽一生来探索世界的本质，然而，究竟什么才是本质呢？长年累月细心记录的一组组实地数据，与婚床初夜灵光一闪而得的数学公式，到底哪个才更真实？ 本书的最后几章很精彩。两条看似平行的线，在生命...
用户评价
First time read a seemingly weird novel, but very interesting, insightful. It shows two different genius' different ways of measuring the universe around them, one prefers to stay at home and keep thinking mathematics issues, the other want to adventure across globe and collect nature samples. Genius not always decent, sometimes evilly desirable.
评分German romanticism is awaken by the hypothesis - what if basic ideas shaped our nowadays world is more derived from personal fever when science was deemed as a 'cult' rather than logical inevitabilities proclaimed&verified by its overwhelming effectiveness afterwards? Then, how should we weigh those people bearing contradictory ideas to their age?
