This is a bold and all-embracing exploration of the nature and progress of knowledge from one of today's great thinkers. Throughout history, mankind has struggled to understand life's mysteries, from the mundane to the seemingly miraculous. In this important new book, David Deutsch, an award-winning pioneer in the field of quantum computation, argues that explanations have a fundamental place in the universe. They have unlimited scope and power to cause change, and the quest to improve them is the basic regulating principle not only of science but of all successful human endeavor. This stream of ever improving explanations has infinite reach, according to Deutsch: we are subject only to the laws of physics, and they impose no upper boundary to what we can eventually understand, control, and achieve. In his previous book, "The Fabric of Reality", Deutsch describes the four deepest strands of existing knowledge - the theories of evolution, quantum physics, knowledge, and computation-arguing jointly they reveal a unified fabric of reality. In this new book, he applies that worldview to a wide range of issues and unsolved problems, from creativity and free will to the origin and future of the human species. Filled with startling new conclusions about human choice, optimism, scientific explanation, and the evolution of culture, "The Beginning of Infinity" is a groundbreaking book that will become a classic of its kind.

具體描述

讀後感

評分

非常精彩,体现了物理学家解释无穷宇宙的终极雄心。多伊奇高举波普尔猜想与反驳的大旗,论证了人类通过创造知识,在并不宜居的地球上生存。他比较了生物的适应性进化和人类知识的创造,其差异在于人类的知识是解释性的,可以无限延伸。他对谜米的进化做出了精彩的论述。 在我看...  

評分

作者在量子力学上有一家之言(也仅仅是量子力学诠释的少数派),但一越界,基本上就是武断的自言自语了。在哲学上,作者倒是立场鲜明,但过于愤青了,除了波普尔,就没有他看得上的。有人说是鸡肋,我看基本上就是不值一提。  

評分

看完全书后,作者戴维·多伊奇宏大的企图昭然若揭:尽管身为理论物理学家,但在本书中他试图下定义、作解释的不仅是科学领域,而是整个人类文明,甚至包括未来尚未出现的文明。 在我看来,多伊奇是个充满激情的乐观主义者。他从未被无限宇宙的庞大与遥不可测吓倒,也从未被人...  

評分

作者多伊奇不愧当今顶级的量子物理学家,从对基本的概念讲起,用无比清晰的逻辑,阐述了最基本、最底层的问题。这种书需要认真静下心来读,收获一定不小。不必担心,书中没有深奥的理论问题,一般读者都能看明白。 作者多伊奇不愧当今顶级的量子物理学家,从对基本的概念讲起,...

把道金斯、霍金一頓批,作者對人類特彆有信心,也不盲目,希望如此吧。寫作很僵硬,讀著像在做邏輯題。

In seek of good explanation

touched by such passionate optimism

评分

和前作The Fabric of Reality一樣精彩,David Deutsch用此書進一步詮釋瞭自己的世界觀,嚴密的邏輯讓我被徹底徵服瞭,說醍醐灌頂並不為過。沒有瞭對人生意義的質疑,充滿瞭對科學和進步的信心。這信心不是來自於以往科學的成就,而是來自於他的哲學。所以說三觀真的很重要。提綱挈領的一本書。好書的一條標準就是提供瞭一個學習的目錄——它的觸手伸嚮哪裏,有的放矢

其實是本討論哲學的書.
