Kevin Ashton led pioneering work on RFID (radio frequency identification) networks, for which he coined the term "the Internet of Things," and co-founded the Auto-ID Center at MIT. His writing about innovation and technology has appeared in Quartz, Medium, The Atlantic, and the New York Times.
As a technology pioneer at MIT and as the leader of three successful start-ups, Kevin Ashton experienced firsthand the all-consuming challenge of creating something new. Now, in a tour-de-force narrative twenty years in the making, Ashton leads us on a journey through humanity’s greatest creations to uncover the surprising truth behind who creates and how they do it. From the crystallographer’s laboratory where the secrets of DNA were first revealed by a long forgotten woman, to the electromagnetic chamber where the stealth bomber was born on a twenty-five-cent bet, to the Ohio bicycle shop where the Wright brothers set out to “fly a horse,” Ashton showcases the seemingly unremarkable individuals, gradual steps, multiple failures, and countless ordinary and usually uncredited acts that lead to our most astounding breakthroughs.
Creators, he shows, apply in particular ways the everyday, ordinary thinking of which we are all capable, taking thousands of small steps and working in an endless loop of problem and solution. He examines why innovators meet resistance and how they overcome it, why most organizations stifle creative people, and how the most creative organizations work. Drawing on examples from art, science, business, and invention, from Mozart to the Muppets, Archimedes to Apple, Kandinsky to a can of Coke, How to Fly a Horse is a passionate and immensely rewarding exploration of how “new” comes to be.
罗胖的解读 今天给大家推荐的这本书叫《创造》。 一般人都认为,创造是神奇的事—— 只有天才有可能创造。 创造行为有明确目的。 而这本书的作者,“物联网之父”凯文·阿什顿却说,那都是鬼扯。 从0到1,那是造物主创世纪的做法,绝大多数时候: 创造随时随地可以发生...
評分——读凯文-阿什顿《被误读的创新》 对于人类历史上每一个重大创新或者创造,我们都情不自禁地怀着“崇拜”之情。它们属于天才,属于天才灵光乍现的一刻。我们从小听到的故事、道理就是如此。 这似乎已经成为一个真理:只有天才才有创造的能力或资格,而普通凡人只能匍匐于尘...

評分文/吴情 谈到创新,智力上的,或者实践中的,我们脑子里可能会首先蹦出一系列与之相关的故事,比如大声叫着“我知道了”从浴缸中跑出的阿基里德——他发现了浮力定律,又如苹果树下被砸中脑袋的牛顿——他发现了万有引力定律,再或者是爱因斯坦的灵光一现,使之产生出相对论的...
評分1.创新是这么一个过程:一步一步行动,一次一次失败,许久之后的某一步,成功了。(创新不靠灵感,靠长期持续行动,灵感也是长期持续行动衍生出来的副产品) 2.从这个定义来看,每个人都可以创新。难就难在——怎么保证长期持续行动?(你可能累了,你可能被诱惑了)怎么忍受一次次...
