理查德•道金斯(Richard Dawkins,1941— ),英國皇傢科學院院士,牛津大學教授,著名科普作傢,進化論生物學傢。他是英國最重要的科學作傢,幾乎每本書都是暢銷書,並經常在各大媒體引起轟動。2005年,英國《前景》雜誌會同美國《外交政策》雜誌評選齣在世的全球100名最有影響力的公共知識分子,道金斯赫然在列。1976年齣版的《自私的基因》是他最重要的代錶作,他的基因觀念顛覆瞭我們對自身的幻覺,深刻影響瞭整整一個時代。其他作品有《盲眼鍾錶匠》《地球上最偉大的錶演》《魔鬼的牧師》《解析彩虹》《祖先的故事》《攀登不可能的山峰》等。
One of the most renowned evolutionary biologists at work today, Richard Dawkins has written passionately for years on subjects that matter deeply to him - and matter urgently to all of us. A Devil's Chaplain brings together the best and most provocative of his essays, on subjects ranging from evolution to ethics, from travel to literature, from education to religion. The result is an intriguing portrait of one of the finest minds in science.
With eloquence and vigor, these essays put forward Dawkins's most fundamental axiom: seek truth. He speaks out against pseudoscience and deftly dissects religion and mysticism. In a powerful letter to his ten-year-old daughter, he argues for the necessity of basing any belief on solid evidence. And he doesn't shy away from skewering the loftiest institutions, whether judicial or educational. "To hell with . . . your fact-stuffed syllabuses and your endless roster of exams," he proclaims with refreshing directness. He writes infectiously of his awe at the marvelous complexity of the universe, pays moving tribute to dear friends and worthy colleagues, and tenderly recalls his boyhood in Africa. Uncompromising, even ruthless as Dawkins famously is when defending scientific truth and reason, this collection also shows a gentler, more contemplative side which may surprise his many readers.
Here we meet the essential Richard Dawkins: inspirational in both his unswerving attention to rationalism and his abiding passions.
在很多人的眼里,科学是一个神秘而的完整的知识体系,它是关于发现发明创造实践的学问,也是人类探索研究感悟宇宙万物变化规律的知识体系的总称。科学是一个建立在可检验的解释和对客观事物的形式、组织等进行预测的有序的知识的系统。 但是,在理查德.道金斯...
評分作者理查德·道金斯是进化论生物学家,学院派科学家,热情的进化论者。 魔鬼的牧师是达尔文提出的理念,作者在第一部分第一篇文章,诠释了魔鬼的牧师的含义,书名也出于此处。本书中的其他章节文章是作者在过去25年间出版过的众多文章中挑选出来的,包含很多主题,...
評分 評分现今,牛津词典收录了“迷因”,将它定义为:一种可以自我复制的文化要素,通过模仿传递。“迷因”出现在《魔鬼的牧师》中,它代表着一种“坏思想”,沿着代际纵向传递,同时也像流行病毒一样横向传递。 作者理查德•道金斯,英国科学家、进化论生物学家。他的每一部书几乎都...
評分处信息爆炸时代其实很多东西都可以拿来看一下 再用自己的脑子过滤一下 这也是我最同意作者的地方 信一样东西之前最好有足够的理据 当初在书店随便翻了几页这本书 觉得以科学家的角度来看社会挺新奇的 所以就买了 纯科学的部分努力去理解了 然对于社会的看法其实说得都没错 但...
