At once a celebration of technology and a warning about its misuse, The Glass Cage will change the way you think about the tools you use every day.
In The Glass Cage, best-selling author Nicholas Carr digs behind the headlines about factory robots and self-driving cars, wearable computers and digitized medicine, as he explores the hidden costs of granting software dominion over our work and our leisure. Even as they bring ease to our lives, these programs are stealing something essential from us.
Drawing on psychological and neurological studies that underscore how tightly people’s happiness and satisfaction are tied to performing hard work in the real world, Carr reveals something we already suspect: shifting our attention to computer screens can leave us disengaged and discontented.
From nineteenth-century textile mills to the cockpits of modern jets, from the frozen hunting grounds of Inuit tribes to the sterile landscapes of GPS maps, The Glass Cage explores the impact of automation from a deeply human perspective, examining the personal as well as the economic consequences of our growing dependence on computers.
With a characteristic blend of history and philosophy, poetry and science, Carr takes us on a journey from the work and early theory of Adam Smith and Alfred North Whitehead to the latest research into human attention, memory, and happiness, culminating in a moving meditation on how we can use technology to expand the human experience.
Nicholas Carr is the author of The Shallows, a Pulitzer Prize finalist, as well as The Big Switch and Does IT Matter? His articles and essays have appeared in The Atlantic, the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, Wired, and the New Republic, and he writes the widely read blog Rough Type. He has been writer-in-residence at the University of California, Berkeley, and an executive editor of the Harvard Business Review.
工具本身不應該代替思考,不應該減輕有效的記憶負擔。工具的意義在於把那些不需要思考的工作自動化,成為第三隻手,而不是代替原來的兩隻手。自從放棄印象筆記以及各種各樣TODO應用之後,我的記憶力和對於工作的安排更加依賴於自己的記憶和判斷,雖然一開始給我帶來瞭一些負擔,但是現在我可以記住更多的東西,有更強的聯係能力。
評分第一章到第八章有很有意思,但是第九章好像和前八章是兩本不同的書,雖然論述依然精彩,但是書的結構看來有點怪,減一星。
評分A grand abstraction called progress is the glass cage.
評分不愛 Carr 的文風,讀來很費勁。
評分the human will-to-technology arises out of that frustrating tension we so often experience between what our minds can envision and what our unaided bodies can accomplish.The practicality of technology may distinguish it from art, but both spring from a similar, distinctly human yearning

評分如果你在北京没赶上地铁,每节车厢经过时,人人都是一个姿势——低头看手机。手机已经部分接管了我们的生活,黑客帝国里预言的世界已经部分到来了。如何能有足够警觉,如何能正确应对是本书讨论的问题。 当今这年头儿,别想回避智能手机,那已经完全不可能了。没有智能手机,相...
評分谷歌的机器人AlphaGo打败了韩国围棋高手李世石。 事情不是第一次发生了。 1997年,IBM的电脑深蓝打败了世界国际象棋冠军加里·卡斯帕罗夫。 人工智能越来越牛逼,而人又往何处去?虽然现实世界里,不太可能立即发生科幻电影中的人机大战,但是,这个事件确实拨动了我们的心...
評分一开始,武师之间用拳头比划,然后随着时间的推移大家开始普及刀具。毫无疑问刀具赋予武师强大的武力,一些过去瘦小的武师用刀具开始击败强大的拳师。老拳师开始思考,该怎么办呢?刀具的使用已经无法禁止了,它就好像瓶子里的恶魔,一经释放出来就牢牢占据空间各个角落...
