"Is Google making us stupid?" When Nicholas Carr posed that question, in a celebrated Atlantic Monthly cover story, he tapped into a well of anxiety about how the Internet is changing us. He also crystallized one of the most important debates of our time: As we enjoy the Net's bounties, are we sacrificing our ability to read and think deeply? Now, Carr expands his argument into the most compelling exploration of the Internet's intellectual and cultural consequences yet published. As he describes how human thought has been shaped through the centuries by "tools of the mind"--from the alphabet to maps, to the printing press, the clock, and the computer--Carr interweaves a fascinating account of recent discoveries in neuroscience by such pioneers as Michael Merzenich and Eric Kandel. Our brains, the historical and scientific evidence reveals, change in response to our experiences. The technologies we use to find, store, and share information can literally reroute our neural pathways. Building on the insights of thinkers from Plato to McLuhan, Carr makes a convincing case that every information technology carries an intellectual ethic--a set of assumptions about the nature of knowledge and intelligence. He explains how the printed book served to focus our attention, promoting deep and creative thought. In stark contrast, the Internet encourages the rapid, distracted sampling of small bits of information from many sources. Its ethic is that of the industrialist, an ethic of speed and efficiency, of optimized production and consumption--and now the Net is remaking us in its own image. We are becoming ever more adept at scanning and skimming, but what we are losing is our capacity for concentration, contemplation, and reflection. Part intellectual history, part popular science, and part cultural criticism, The Shallows sparkles with memorable vignettes--Friedrich Nietzsche wrestling with a typewriter, Sigmund Freud dissecting the brains of sea creatures, Nathaniel Hawthorne contemplating the thunderous approach of a steam locomotive--even as it plumbs profound questions about the state of our modern psyche. This is a book that will forever alter the way we think about media and our minds.
(1) 我们这个时代面临的一个重要课题:在我们尽情享受互联网慷慨施舍的过程中,我们正在牺牲深度阅读和深度思考的能力。 (2) 印刷图书让我们进入聚精会神的状态,从而促进深度思维和创造性思维的发展。相比之下,互联网鼓励我们蜻蜓点水般地从多种信息来源中广泛采集“碎...
評分麦克卢汉曾提出了一个牛逼的思想 “媒介即信息:媒介不仅仅是传播内容的工具,而是超越了自身以及载体。”他断言创造现代世界观的活字印刷,是印刷术决定了知识。而后产生了包括波兹曼等信徒,波兹曼在《娱乐至死》中,针对美国那些看似严肃实在充满娱乐的电视节目,告诫人们...
評分我标准的一天大概是这样的: 6:00左右 被邮件推送惊醒,这个时间除了隔着时差的导师就是广告了。看一眼标题,继续沉睡。 7:30 等待闹铃响,赖床时间解锁手机,校内、豆瓣、微博挨个看一遍。 8:15 翻下床,洗漱,换衣服,带上ipod出门上班或者上课,毫无疑问,音乐均是download ...

書中的主要觀點其實之前也有所瞭解,並不是特彆震撼的東西,所以,感覺這書很溫吞水,囉囉嗦嗦,尤其是那些生物學曆史類的東西,看著暈,一掃而過,而且書引文太多瞭,感覺像篇堆砌彆人觀點來灌水的綜述論文....之前看到某論壇推薦,評價太高導緻俺期望過高,隻能說湊閤
