书里很多问题很有趣,而且如果深究的话应该能挖掘出很多话题来。 比如书名的这个问题:男人为什么有乳头?书里只是简单的描述了人体胚胎发育的过程,但事实上并没有回答“为什么”。为什么在胚胎初期发育的时候是部分男女的?这种情况在进化中是有优势的么? 作为趣味小知识来...
評分看完EQ之后,有些大脑疲倦,于是转向了这本书。 看的过程中果然很轻松,两个作者很懂得如何插科打诨,颇有点talk show的味道,而且这本书上常常会有一些很可爱的表情,呵呵 重点呢,也学到了一些可以拿来炫耀和的知识和确实有用的生活常识,炫耀的就罢了,全书都是,有用的生...
評分纯粹是为了堆积阅读量读的这本书,书中的知识都还算有趣,总之能增长知识吧。我是学生物的,我觉得现代医学对性这个话题的研究实在是太少,在我看来,通过研究让性生活改善显然是一件有重大意义的事情。与其研究特别专业的问题,倒不如认真的考虑下这些问题。不知道作者还有没...
評分知识的趣味化到底是对知识的贬低,还是仅仅是给生硬的知识穿了一件丝绸外衣?这本身是个伪问题,没有趣味的人通常对知识超乎寻常的崇敬,拥有某种专业知识确实要比做一个浑身上下都可爱得冒泡的人要容易得多——若干年前一个电视主持人说过,找不到快感的人才去找真理。不过...
評分每一章的开头两位作者都加入了他们自以为“幽默”的对话,在文章中还加入不少表情符号,天,我是再看网络连载小说么?可能是我见识太少,理解不了这种美国式的幽默。但是给我的感觉就是恶俗而又不知所谓。 同样是科普读物,袁越的《生命八卦》就好的多。
雖然有幾段覺得mark亂入蠻煩的,有些解釋也不是很清晰,總體來說比較好笑,有幾個問題真是好汙啊哈哈哈哈哈
评分恩·吸人眼球的書名,為數不多我一口氣能讀下去的書~作者很風趣的糾正瞭我們很多平時理所當然卻是錯誤的觀念,值得一讀!
评分I have no idea why I started out on this...
评分I enjoyed the humor! but really don't treat those knowledge too seriously. lol
评分A dangerous little muscle, that heart of yours./A men’s room seems to be the one place on earth where Emersonian self-reliance should be the rule./ Feels like I’m teetering on the precipice of something major./ avoid dangerous activities like smoking
