只能说很普通,都是别人的东西。其实别人的东西拿来能说好也行,可是安排上是云里雾里,不知道想要阐述什么。里面quote了无数人,这些人或多或少都写过一些书,基本上都是没有听说过的,美国人真喜欢写书。
评分大名鼎鼎的专栏作家写出这样的书真是对不起读者/听众。文不对题,词不达意。方方面面都要提到,但是又都是浅尝辄止。科技部分显然是道听途说几个新鲜词,super nova/cloud听得我要吐。全书唯一可以看的是有关他高中同学的八卦。听的有声书,1.6倍语速,权当练习听力了。
评分3.5星。全书围绕信息化、全球化、气候变化、相互依赖式新型地缘政治和如何适应加速时代这几大主体紧密展开。调研走访非常扎实,开头因此很吸引人,能领略到很多前沿工作者的态度眼光,细微之处不乏精妙。但读到后面不由觉得这就是个他人话语的调查报告。作者自己的一些观点如果不能说不够个人,那就只能说不够新颖。尤其后面提到要学习Mother Nature治理国家,浅显娱乐化凸显。作者面对整个技术趋势的勇气和乘风破浪的决心于我最impressive. Adaptability without humiliation.美国不被撼动的技术精英其实在说roll with all the changes. 这是普罗大众做不到的。作者的乐观主义还是天真可能是美国改变先锋愿意接受的现实主义。
评分讀不下去
评分一直到写Minnesota之前的几章我都觉得气势宏大,虽然作者的主要观点不算新颖,但作者已多年的记者身份旁征博引举了很多生动的例子——特别是对于中东国家如何在气候变化的影响下加剧了区域不稳定性,并将这不稳定性蔓延到世界各地的论述非常精彩。但最后两章有点啰嗦,略读也罢~
Thomas L. Friedman is a three-time recipient of the Pulitzer Prize for his work with The New York Times and the author of six bestselling books, including The World Is Flat.
A field guide to the twenty-first century, written by one of its most celebrated observers
We all sense it―something big is going on. You feel it in your workplace. You feel it when you talk to your kids. You can’t miss it when you read the newspapers or watch the news. Our lives are being transformed in so many realms all at once―and it is dizzying.
In Thank You for Being Late, a work unlike anything he has attempted before, Thomas L. Friedman exposes the tectonic movements that are reshaping the world today and explains how to get the most out of them and cushion their worst impacts. You will never look at the world the same way again after you read this book: how you understand the news, the work you do, the education your kids need, the investments your employer has to make, and the moral and geopolitical choices our country has to navigate will all be refashioned by Friedman’s original analysis.
Friedman begins by taking us into his own way of looking at the world―how he writes a column. After a quick tutorial, he proceeds to write what could only be called a giant column about the twenty-first century. His thesis: to understand the twenty-first century, you need to understand that the planet’s three largest forces―Moore’s law (technology), the Market (globalization), and Mother Nature (climate change and biodiversity loss)―are accelerating all at once. These accelerations are transforming five key realms: the workplace, politics, geopolitics, ethics, and community.
Why is this happening? As Friedman shows, the exponential increase in computing power defined by Moore’s law has a lot to do with it. The year 2007 was a major inflection point: the release of the iPhone, together with advances in silicon chips, software, storage, sensors, and networking, created a new technology platform. Friedman calls this platform “the supernova”―for it is an extraordinary release of energy that is reshaping everything from how we hail a taxi to the fate of nations to our most intimate relationships. It is creating vast new opportunities for individuals and small groups to save the world―or to destroy it.
Thank You for Being Late is a work of contemporary history that serves as a field manual for how to write and think about this era of accelerations. It’s also an argument for “being late”―for pausing to appreciate this amazing historical epoch we’re passing through and to reflect on its possibilities and dangers. To amplify this point, Friedman revisits his Minnesota hometown in his moving concluding chapters; there, he explores how communities can create a “topsoil of trust” to anchor their increasingly diverse and digital populations.
With his trademark vitality, wit, and optimism, Friedman shows that we can overcome the multiple stresses of an age of accelerations―if we slow down, if we dare to be late and use the time to reimagine work, politics, and community. Thank You for Being Late is Friedman’s most ambitious book―and an essential guide to the present and the future.
