How does life work? How does nature produce the right numbers of zebras and lions on the African savanna, or fish in the ocean? How do our bodies produce the right numbers of cells in our organs and bloodstream? In The Serengeti Rules, award-winning biologist and author Sean Carroll tells the stories of the pioneering scientists who sought the answers to such simple yet profoundly important questions, and shows how their discoveries matter for our health and the health of the planet we depend upon.
One of the most important revelations about the natural world is that everything is regulated--there are rules that regulate the amount of every molecule in our bodies and rules that govern the numbers of every animal and plant in the wild. And the most surprising revelation about the rules that regulate life at such different scales is that they are remarkably similar--there is a common underlying logic of life. Carroll recounts how our deep knowledge of the rules and logic of the human body has spurred the advent of revolutionary life-saving medicines, and makes the compelling case that it is now time to use the Serengeti Rules to heal our ailing planet.
A bold and inspiring synthesis by one of our most accomplished biologists and gifted storytellers, The Serengeti Rules is the first book to illuminate how life works at vastly different scales. Read it and you will never look at the world the same way again.

前几天看到一个纪录片。由于海冰融化,海象需要爬到八十米高的悬崖上寻找地方休息,在这个过程中很多海象不幸跌落悬崖摔死。我想人们可以轻而易举地将一个毫无戒心的人从二十楼(80米高)推下去,但是人们不会这么做,因为这是谋杀;人们再怎么努力也没有办法单靠力气把重一吨的海象从二十楼扔下去,但是通过剥夺栖息地可以。——这可以说是“一桩发生在遥远北极的谋杀案”吗?

《生命的法则》详细地阐述了双重负向调节如何对小到单个生命、大到生态系统进行调节和“维稳”。 其实这里面的负向调节或反馈调节在高中生物学中都是重点,我对其中的知识点也都记得非常清楚。但是,生物书中并没有详细阐述“塞伦盖蒂法则”的发现过程和事例,让我了解的并不是...
评分生物学当中的生态学更是一个新兴的学科,在20世纪出现,但是它发展得非常迅速。生态学给我们一个非常好的视角来观察这个世界。甚至有人说21世纪生态学理论将会改变世界。 《生命的法则》就是这样一部生态学著作。它从小到大,从基因、细胞、组织、器官、个体、种群和整个生态系...
