图书描述

A one-voume reference to the history of ideas that is a compendium of everything that humankind has thought, invented, created, considered, and perfected from the beginning of civilization into the twenty-first century. Massive in its scope, and yet totally accessible, A HISTORY OF KNOWLEDGE covers not only all the great theories and discoveries of the human race, but also explores the social conditions, political climates, and individual men and women of genius that brought ideas to fruition throughout history.

"Crystal clear and concise...Explains how humankind got to know what it knows."

Clifton Fadiman

Selected by the Book-of-the-Month Club and the History Book Club

著者简介

Van Doren, once editorial director of the Encyclopedia Brittanica , has produced a miniature encyclopedia, organized to show that there is progress in knowledge. He praises Columbus for giving us "a world well on the way to the unity it experiences today." India is mentioned as the source of the caste system. The Chinese gave us Confucius, but Van Doren notes their main legacy seems to be good recipes for tyranny. He warns that some good knowledge is unpleasant: we must now control our technology. Ultimately, the best knowledge for him is Western scientific knowledge since it is cumulative, meaning that better theories nearly always replace worse ones. An avid reader of Popular Mechanics who went to sleep in Peoria, Illinois in 1920 and awoke today with this book in her/his hands would probably find their ideals intact, needing only new technical knowledge and preparation for Van Doren's predicted revolt of intelligent machines. Van Doren has distilled the ideology of scientific progress into a neat, short drink that should win him a place on every library shelf.

从人物的的角度补完大致的世界史，和全球通史互补。全书用词华丽，啰里吧嗦，有的个人结论缺少论证不够objective

simple and interesting. The book itself is an excellent essay featured by consistency, unity and clarity, with abundance of examples to evidence its point

第一次觉得学术书也是好看的。= =Van Doren把历史分成小小的故事来讲而且用的语言还挺易懂的。我爱你啊VD！！！你比Noll好一万倍！！！

花了一年时间，终于读完了。若是沿着知识的历史，将有趣的的部分都分别读过，了解清楚，恐怕需要花上几十年。这本书则可以作为构建自己的人文知识体系的大纲。

读后感

评分☆☆☆☆☆

1.买它几乎完全是因为作者是Charles Van Doren，本人最爱的how to read a book的作者之一～～ 2.词汇变化确实挺丰富，适合刚上手读原版书不久的同学扩充词汇，不过这也是个见仁见智的问题。。。 3.这本书的讨论对象是整个人类知识general knowledge而不是仅仅有某门学科知识的...

发现好多人在找这本书，而此书还没有评论。我就先“战战兢兢”码几行字。各位亲爱的G友们，不要因为没有看这本书而烦恼。北美范文上推荐的所有原版书我基本上都读过。包括这一本和那本比较贵的the world's greatest ideas。还有一堆七七八八的原版杂志。我并不是期望看这些...
