The news is everywhere. We can’t stop constantly checking it on our computer screens, but what is this doing to our minds?
We are never really taught how to make sense of the torrent of news we face every day, writes Alain de Botton (author of the best-selling The Architecture of Happiness), but this has a huge impact on our sense of what matters and of how we should lead our lives. In his dazzling new book, de Botton takes twenty-five archetypal news stories—including an airplane crash, a murder, a celebrity interview and a political scandal—and submits them to unusually intense analysis with a view to helping us navigate our news-soaked age. He raises such questions as Why are disaster stories often so uplifting? What makes the love lives of celebrities so interesting? Why do we enjoy watching politicians being brought down? Why are upheavals in far-off lands often so boring?
In The News: A User’s Manual, de Botton has written the ultimate guide for our frenzied era, certain to bring calm, understanding and a measure of sanity to our daily (perhaps even hourly) interactions with the news machine.
Alain de Botton is the author of nonfiction works on subjects ranging from love and travel to architecture and philosophy. His best-selling books include How Proust Can Change Your Life, The Art of Travel and The Architecture of Happiness. He lives in London, where he founded The School of Life (www.theschooloflife.com) and Living Architecture (www.living-architecture.co.uk).

“英国才子”的新闻读后感,认为新闻从业员未尽职责将新闻抽丝剥茧,或以有趣的语言呈现,或以朝着对人类有意义贡献的方向叙述,而只是平淡无奇地报道着层出不穷的天灾人祸。这样看来,其实是作者不太明白“新闻”到底是什么,“忠于事实,不偏不倚”才是新闻的中心,尤其在这...
評分 評分在京东看到最喜欢的英国作家又出书了,而且话题还是我格外关心的新闻,喜不自胜,当然要拍下。 如同他人的赞誉一样,阿兰德波顿是那种可以把扫帚都写得趣味盎然的人。作为文史双修的大才子,他恰恰没有把话题首先放在太高远的抽象名词上,而是离你我都很近的旅行、建筑、新闻、...
評分 評分新闻不就该是冷静中立的方法陈述“事实”吗?大家对新闻的争论点好像多集中于此。而德波顿却直接推翻了这个不是问题的问题,“问题是,当今时代已经不缺少可靠的事实。”看到这的时候,不禁想,叔,你跟我一样都是外行吧。 这样的一本书让我觉得有些不知从哪说起,我对新闻...
