Review
"I have long been a fan of David Christian. In Origin Story, he elegantly weaves evidence and insights from many scientific and historical disciplines into a single, accessible historical narrative."
―Bill Gates
"In Origin Story, David Christian has found a spectacular way to use history to put order in the entire set of our knowledge about the world. This is a wonderful achievement."
―Carlo Rovelli, author of Seven Brief Lessons on Physics and The Order of Time
"A remarkable book that puts us self-important humans in our proper place in the cosmos, yet also explains why the story of human culture and knowledge -- what Christian calls collective learning -- matters for understanding our present world and shaping its future."―Merry Wiesner-Hanks, President of the World History Association
"David Christian is not one for half measures. Origin Story is a majestic distillation of our current understanding of the birth and development of the universe, of the solar system, of the oceans, of mountains and minerals, of all life on earth and of the driving dynamics of human culture and achievement. All of this in just over 300 pages of captivating prose that weaves together innumerable insights from dozens of disciplines in the sciences, arts and humanities. With fascinating ideas on every page and the page turning energy of a good thriller, this is a landmark work that comes at a time when it has never been more important for humanity as a whole to have a clearer, more informed understanding of our place on earth and of the earth's place in the cosmos."―Sir Ken Robinson, author of The Element

029|123，《起源：万物大历史》。 这是一本雄心勃勃的书，想把《宇宙的一生》、《物种起源》、《人类简史》整合。 按道理，这是一本符合我“物质历史观”的历史著作。 但我感觉远远不仅于此，可能叙述太宏大，以至于过程中大部分处于非深度辩证思考的现有知识或理论。 笔者分成...
评分最近，有种观点颇为流行，也令人担忧，那就是现阶段全球技术和经济的发展进入了一个瓶颈期，全球缺乏增量的机会，更看不到可能的爆发式的扩张式增长。所以，现阶段全球将进入一个存量博弈的时代，其结果就是各类利益主体间的你争我夺，大家都知道这是一种互相伤害，但是却无法...

Thx gates recommend .The efficiency（is not speed），increasing efficiencies in the use of energy and materials will eventually reduce total energy consumption and recycling of existing materials will reduce comsumption of new minerals and resources almost to zero. To do anyting requires energy but to specify what is done requires information.
评分To do anything requires energy. To specify what is done requires information.
评分整本书算是对目前对宇宙和人类历史知识的一个较好的汇总，但是新知识的含量不足。
评分本来也不可能在一本书里讲完从宇宙诞生到人类文明发展至今的全部内容还包括细节吧，主要读个框架体系和思维模式。Imagine what the world will be if only history classes in high school were taught this way...
评分中规中矩，如果了解大历史的话就没有耳目一新的感觉，但是大历史观我很认可，3.5
