圖書描述

A major book about the future of the world, blending intellectual and natural history and field reporting into a powerful account of the mass extinction unfolding before our eyes

Over the last half a billion years, there have been five mass extinctions, when the diversity of life on earth suddenly and dramatically contracted. Scientists around the world are currently monitoring the sixth extinction, predicted to be the most devastating extinction event since the asteroid impact that wiped out the dinosaurs. This time around, the cataclysm is us. In The Sixth Extinction, two-time winner of the National Magazine Award and New Yorker writer Elizabeth Kolbert draws on the work of scores of researchers in half a dozen disciplines, accompanying many of them into the field: geologists who study deep ocean cores, botanists who follow the tree line as it climbs up the Andes, marine biologists who dive off the Great Barrier Reef. She introduces us to a dozen species, some already gone, others facing extinction, including the Panamian golden frog, staghorn coral, the great auk, and the Sumatran rhino. Through these stories, Kolbert provides a moving account of the disappearances occurring all around us and traces the evolution of extinction as concept, from its first articulation by Georges Cuvier in revolutionary Paris up through the present day. The sixth extinction is likely to be mankind's most lasting legacy; as Kolbert observes, it compels us to rethink the fundamental question of what it means to be human.

Enchanting descriptions about the trips and interesting people are the best part. Dying bats in caverns. Snorkeling amid coral reefs. Wading marshes to catch the amphibians.

評分

主題很吸引人,但講起來很那做到平易近人,因為牽涉到太多專業背景知識。作者就像講故事一樣娓娓道來,讀起來讓人欲罷不能。非常好的一本科普讀物。對於大滅絕,人總是站在統治者的位置上覺得這不能發生在自己身上,可是就像《三體》裏說的,“死亡纔是永恒的”。這個過程也許就是不可避免的,正所謂天道輪迴。你都說不清如今這個狀態究竟是這個必然過程中的一種錶現方式還是人的自掘墳墓。

最近覺得豆瓣好無聊,忙著看這本書,超好看。

文風乾淨利落,適量幽默,不抖機靈,hin不錯的nonfiction

評分

不管是絕望的還是留有希望的那些故事,其實內容大部分都知道。況且當前很多現實更加可怕。作為科普,絕對推薦。想起作者去年來學校演講,說到在Anthropocene,all options are bad,what differs is how worse.

大巴车在大西北的戈壁滩上飞驰,连续八个小时四周一颗草都看不见。没有漫天的飞沙,天也是那么的蓝,只有风化的石柱和地上析出的点点盐晶在诉说着这片土地的贫瘠。我一直在想,这片土地上物种数量公式cA^z的系数是不是零。 读这本书的绝大部份时间,我在青海甘肃游的大巴车上度...

试想一下,寂静的春天没有那么早到来,而是现在才有人提出这样的一个名词;试想一下,如果没有罗马俱乐部,没有绿党,没有增长的极限的存在;试想一下,时间还停留在印第安人和欧洲人之间博弈着到底谁才是真正的土地领主的年代。试想一下,这一切延续到了现在,我们的生态系统...  

評分

作为书的译者,给自己的书写书评是件多多少少有些奇怪的事情。本以为无话可说,但等到落笔时才发现,想说的很多。一本书的译者大概也是最仔细的一位读者,一个词也不曾放过。然而越是读得仔细,越是有无数的想法,却受困于译者的身份,无处倾吐。借书评之机,随便说说吧。 (...
