具体描述

作者简介

Sean Carroll is a theoretical physicist at the California Institute of Technology. His research focuses on fundamental issues in quantum mechanics, gravitation, statistical mechanics, and cosmology. He has wide-ranging interests, including in philosophy, complexity theory, and information.

Carroll is an active science communicator, and has been blogging regularly since 2004. His textbook "Spacetime and Geometry" has been adopted by a number of universities for their graduate courses in general relativity. He is a frequent public speaker, and has appeared on TV shows such as The Colbert Report and Through The Wormhole with Morgan Freeman. He has produced a set of lectures for The Teaching Company on dark matter and dark energy, and another on the nature of time. He has served as a science consultant for films such as Thor and TRON: Legacy, as well as for TV shows such as Fringe and Bones.

His 2010 popular book, "From Eternity to Here," explained the arrow of time and connected it with the origin of our universe. "The Particle at the End of the Universe," about the Large Hadron Collider and the quest to discover the Higgs boson, was released November 2012. "The Big Picture: On the Origins of Life, Meaning, and the Universe Itself" will appear in May 2016.

读后感

评分

肖恩·卡罗尔,真是深得我心。 我很久之前,就想过,对人进行量子层面的复制,所带来的同一性困境,结果他在这本书里居然也提到了,而且嵌入在一个“大图景”中,带着我进入了更广阔的境地。 在统一场论和“我该如何生活”之间,有着漫长的距离,两者常常看起来毫不相关,尽管...

懒洋洋地下午,三个男人围在桌子上讨论着不着边际的话题——人类算个啥? 穿着聖袍呆着金边眼镜的基督教徒说到:“几千年前世界漆黑一片,神说要有光于是就有了光,神创造了一切最后做了人,先做了男人再从男人的身上取出肋骨做了女人,所以人是神的仆人。” “住嘴!”穿着白...

拿到手发现校对居然是Ent,期待一下子就高了起来。 现在的科普像科研一样,愈发趋向具体和专门,比如讲进化论或者心智科学,毕竟能把一个问题讲清楚就不容易了。 但肖恩·卡罗尔这本书开头就是本体论和认识论两个宏大议题,仿佛回到了亚里士多德的哲学物理时代,这些问题宏大到...

〖树评〗 《读家教练:生命意义的涌现与演化》 人性,美感,诗意, 智慧本在文字之外。 生命,智能,演化, 嵌入多维数网络中, 联结量变引起质变。 叠加,溶解,漩涡, 时间知觉情感重构, 意群融贯熵增复杂, 新陈代谢破茧化蝶。 变焦,回顾,展望, 自由意志记忆剧本, 弥散...

……不是说不好,但总觉得……cumbersome?

评分

Poetic naturalism最佳宣传手册

评分

我今年读过的最好的书

评分

内容好杂,不像想象中的物理科普书,然而对世界的认识本来也就不是能由物理学完全说清楚的。
