From Publishers Weekly

Starred Review. Former foreign editor of Time, Ramo pushes the reader into uncomfortable yet exhilarating places with controversial ways of thinking about global challenges (e.g., studying why Hezbollah is the most efficiently run Islamic militant group). His book, which lays bare the flaws in current thinking on everything from American political influence to the economy, is designed to change the physics of the way we think. Analyzing the failure of the Bush administration's Democratic Peace Theory and the fruitless efforts at a Mideast peace process, Ramo suggests that people must change the role they imagine for themselves from architects of a system they can control to gardeners in a living ecosystem. Ramo's message—that the most dynamic forces emerge from outside elite circles: geeks, iconoclasts and maligned populations—is persuasively argued. And while the author doesn't explicitly offer up solutions, he goads readers to approach problems in unexpected ways. His revelatory work argues that there must be some audacity in thinking before there can be any audacity of hope. (Apr.)

读后感

像物理学从牛顿定理到量子力学的发展一样,对于社会的认识也正在经历这样的转变,由真实的到虚幻的,这样看来的话本就没有“常识”一说了,至少所谓的常识是有很大的时间和空间的局限性的。万变没有其宗,没有什么可以走遍天下都不怕的的依靠。    #沙堆模型# 只要稍微关...

乐观是一件很容易的事情,忧患也是一件很容易的事情。在忧患之中,找到乐观的理由,才是最难的事情。 《纽约时报》专栏作家托马斯•弗里德曼是一个不可救药的乐观主义者。他相信“金色M理论”:只要两个国家都有麦当劳,就不会发生战争。这么天真的想法,居然会如此流行,是...

一个记者写的所谓大视野大战略之类的书,在我看来基本属于故事+胡扯。据说挺畅销,实在不理解为啥畅销。随便翻了翻,有的地方仔细看一下,因为有一些例子是国际关系类的。其实看看何帆写的译序就可以了。倒是该书附的北京共识认真读了一下,感觉也是标题党,内容太杂。知道北京...

我们接触到的事物,我们所面对的问题,都有一些人一些书在我们之前面对过,思考过,解答过。只是我们不知道。在注重走出去的同时,万卷书却被我们遗忘在角落里。本书中印象最深刻的两个地方:一个是沙堆,一个是巴西的一家企业。  

评分

作者开篇两章就在强调现在世界的复杂性和不可预测性, 并且一直在使用沙堆的概念来比喻,当向沙堆不停的添加沙子的时候,崩溃是早晚的事情,可是什么时候发生确实不可预测的。我们需要思考,需要从新的角度去思考,像一个维护者、一个园丁去思考,只有具有灵活性和适应性...

Read in Merville Residence in UCD. A pretty neat book, with good examples of how innovation could make a difference. I still remembered the Nintendo example.
