3 billion heartbeats, time is ticking.
评分我今年读过的最好的书
评分可以给5星的物理学科普读物。用laws of nature来讲universe, life (of origins), morality, religion, human beings, logic, philosophy。量子力学解释的很通俗易懂,对sci-fi常常提到的many-world和multi-universe做了区分。由于偶个人现在没心思看和religion, morality and philosophy的部分,就没给5星。还有,要注意的就是书里讲的理论,只是(因为无法证明的)众多理论中作者支持的一个。
评分一本加州理工學院物理學家寫的哲學/倫理學的書,可能會是一本非常重要的書。越來越感覺,現代哲學就是物理學、腦神經學+邏輯學。(對我一個高一就物理課結業的文科生來說,有點難) 書中的哲學觀叫「詩意自然主義」。郝景芳最近在開智大會上那篇演講是對其近乎完美的詮釋。(清華物理和加州理工物理的握手)也許,這只是尚未被稀釋給大眾吸收的常識? 書以引用加繆做結尾。存在主義本身倡導詩意,是「詩意自然主義」粗糲的前身,加繆也顯得更有勇氣。
评分以宇宙大爆炸理论、量子场论的大量结果为基础,对科学方法、人生意义等宏大的哲学问题做出了讨论。
Sean Carroll is a theoretical physicist at the California Institute of Technology. His research focuses on fundamental issues in quantum mechanics, gravitation, statistical mechanics, and cosmology. He has wide-ranging interests, including in philosophy, complexity theory, and information.
Carroll is an active science communicator, and has been blogging regularly since 2004. His textbook "Spacetime and Geometry" has been adopted by a number of universities for their graduate courses in general relativity. He is a frequent public speaker, and has appeared on TV shows such as The Colbert Report and Through The Wormhole with Morgan Freeman. He has produced a set of lectures for The Teaching Company on dark matter and dark energy, and another on the nature of time. He has served as a science consultant for films such as Thor and TRON: Legacy, as well as for TV shows such as Fringe and Bones.
His 2010 popular book, "From Eternity to Here," explained the arrow of time and connected it with the origin of our universe. "The Particle at the End of the Universe," about the Large Hadron Collider and the quest to discover the Higgs boson, was released November 2012. "The Big Picture: On the Origins of Life, Meaning, and the Universe Itself" will appear in May 2016.

肖恩·卡罗尔,真是深得我心。 我很久之前,就想过,对人进行量子层面的复制,所带来的同一性困境,结果他在这本书里居然也提到了,而且嵌入在一个“大图景”中,带着我进入了更广阔的境地。 在统一场论和“我该如何生活”之间,有着漫长的距离,两者常常看起来毫不相关,尽管...
评分1 本书的结构 本书分为六大部分,50章。结构庞大,但其实并不难读,总字数三十二万字。须知《洛丽塔》就有四十二万字。它貌似厚重,难于阅读,也许是由于装帧精良,丝绢般韧滑的纸张有一定厚度的缘故吧。 本书第一大部分是对本体论的基本概述,第二部分是在阐述认识论,第三部...
评分拿到手发现校对居然是Ent,期待一下子就高了起来。 现在的科普像科研一样,愈发趋向具体和专门,比如讲进化论或者心智科学,毕竟能把一个问题讲清楚就不容易了。 但肖恩·卡罗尔这本书开头就是本体论和认识论两个宏大议题,仿佛回到了亚里士多德的哲学物理时代,这些问题宏大到...
评分這是一本很困難的書,作者的論述,由量子、原子、分子、有機體、生命演化、基因遺傳、神經科學、牛頓力學、邏輯推理、相對論、天文宇宙、以至延伸到神學、哲學等各層級領域,涉及的範疇既廣且深,最後作者以一個核心理論方程式做為結尾〈說似簡潔、卻很不易理解、且不會是最終...
