用几句话总结就是:人类智能因为数据量太大,物理脑容量不够,所以演化出了把数据都放云端(文化),自己只带个下载器(学习能力)的做法。然而这个下载器的算法过于heuristic,导致经常出各种BUG……
评分迄今为止对gene-culture co-evolution最全面的总结,但牵强附会之处不少。

评分挺多新奇有趣的观点,生物进化不仅是自然的选择,更是文化的影响。人并没有比猩猩聪明,但因为是cultural species,有知识经验的传递和延续,懂得合作与分工。足以见得文化的力量和魅力。最后总结的第七点又讲到不同社会有不同文化习惯,强硬照搬植入外来文化产物很多时候不一定适合。。这也是我毕业论文的观点:)。
评分回头mark一下 除了有关生物学讨论的最后四章以外都看完了,中文版翻译的不太好,不如看原文
Joseph Henrich is professor of human evolutionary biology at Harvard University. He also holds the Canada Research Chair in Culture, Cognition, and Coevolution at the University of British Columbia, where he is a professor in the departments of psychology and economics. He is the coauthor of Why Humans Cooperate and the coeditor of Experimenting with Social Norms.
Humans are a puzzling species. On the one hand, we struggle to survive on our own in the wild, often failing to overcome even basic challenges, like obtaining food, building shelters, or avoiding predators. On the other hand, human groups have produced ingenious technologies, sophisticated languages, and complex institutions that have permitted us to successfully expand into a vast range of diverse environments. What has enabled us to dominate the globe, more than any other species, while remaining virtually helpless as lone individuals? This book shows that the secret of our success lies not in our innate intelligence, but in our collective brains—on the ability of human groups to socially interconnect and learn from one another over generations.
Drawing insights from lost European explorers, clever chimpanzees, mobile hunter-gatherers, neuroscientific findings, ancient bones, and the human genome, Joseph Henrich demonstrates how our collective brains have propelled our species’ genetic evolution and shaped our biology. Our early capacities for learning from others produced many cultural innovations, such as fire, cooking, water containers, plant knowledge, and projectile weapons, which in turn drove the expansion of our brains and altered our physiology, anatomy, and psychology in crucial ways. Later on, some collective brains generated and recombined powerful concepts, such as the lever, wheel, screw, and writing, while also creating the institutions that continue to alter our motivations and perceptions. Henrich shows how our genetics and biology are inextricably interwoven with cultural evolution, and how culture-gene interactions launched our species on an extraordinary evolutionary trajectory.
Tracking clues from our ancient past to the present, The Secret of Our Success explores how the evolution of both our cultural and social natures produce a collective intelligence that explains both our species’ immense success and the origins of human uniqueness.
把这本书推荐给我的人说,这是一本神书,你一定要看。于是我看了,合上书惊叹,真神啊~ 书名看起来有点中二,但讲的还真是这个事儿,也即,人类成功统治地球的秘密,文化如何驱动我们成功? 它的结论是,我们人类现在几乎占领全球,发展出了丰富的文化,是因为文化演进和生物演...

评分本书作者亨里奇在书中所倡导的理论叫做:文化-遗传协同演化,或者叫做双重遗传理论(Dual inheritance theory,简称DIT),即基因与文化的共同演化作用,造就了我们“人类成功统治地球”。 要评价这样的理论,我们首先得从社会科学与演化生物学两方面着手,看看他们在各自的理...
