NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
Yuval Noah Harari, author of the critically-acclaimed New York Times bestseller and international phenomenon Sapiens, returns with an equally original, compelling, and provocative book, turning his focus toward humanity’s future, and our quest to upgrade humans into gods.
Over the past century humankind has managed to do the impossible and rein in famine, plague, and war. This may seem hard to accept, but, as Harari explains in his trademark style—thorough, yet riveting—famine, plague and war have been transformed from incomprehensible and uncontrollable forces of nature into manageable challenges. For the first time ever, more people die from eating too much than from eating too little; more people die from old age than from infectious diseases; and more people commit suicide than are killed by soldiers, terrorists and criminals put together. The average American is a thousand times more likely to die from binging at McDonalds than from being blown up by Al Qaeda.
What then will replace famine, plague, and war at the top of the human agenda? As the self-made gods of planet earth, what destinies will we set ourselves, and which quests will we undertake? Homo Deus explores the projects, dreams and nightmares that will shape the twenty-first century—from overcoming death to creating artificial life. It asks the fundamental questions: Where do we go from here? And how will we protect this fragile world from our own destructive powers? This is the next stage of evolution. This is Homo Deus.
With the same insight and clarity that made Sapiens an international hit and a New York Times bestseller, Harari maps out our future.
Prof. Yuval Noah Harari has a PhD in History from the University of Oxford and lectures at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, specializing in world history. His books have been translated into 50+ languages, with 12+ million copies sold worldwide. 'Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind' (2014) looked deep into our past, 'Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow' (2016) considered far-future scenarios, and '21 Lessons for the 21st Century' (2018) zoomed in on the biggest questions of the present moment.
寫曆史水平的高低在於能否對同一曆史事件的多角度觀察。
評分很長一段時間裏讀到的真正意義上的科幻作品。因為它展示瞭一個我還沒想過的未來,雖然是不想去的未來。數據信仰這個概念值得思考,對教育係統更是有深刻的提示作用。其實阿西莫夫基地係列與機器人係列最後結閤的那一本已經提到瞭整個銀河係的conscious being應該結成一個統一的有機體,每個生靈都是這個機體的一分子一細胞。《未來簡史》更進一步,提齣一旦數據和算法控製整個體係,最終人的價值將不再有特殊性,也許就可以退齣曆史舞颱瞭。當然,這本書對問題的分析還是太簡單化瞭。事情永遠沒有那麼簡單的。再說,人總是高估自己的技術。2019瞭,仿生人和空中飛車連影兒都沒呢,2001過去瞭18年,人類連月球都沒興趣再去。走著瞧吧,該乾嘛乾嘛。
評分寫曆史水平的高低在於能否對同一曆史事件的多角度觀察。
評分通過Audible有聲書聽讀完的。當然並不贊同一些觀點,但是的確能夠激發新的思考,比如:人本主義的閤理性,感受和經曆的價值,信息是否應該為王,人能否為自己的生命負責。
評分聽瞭一半準備棄瞭,yuval大概是很好的曆史學傢,但是這一本完全就是pop science啊,也不是他的本專業,感覺畢竟牽強。我比較認同的是憑什麼humancentric,也認為接下來的一兩百年人類會因為科技而進化成跟現在非常不相同的“人類”,到時候道德會成為全新的不同問題。
设想一下,如果今天你要搞一个活动,想把中国最有思想和最有权势的人,都聚集在一起,透过他们,引发势能,获得尽可能大的关注,那么,什么样的议题,可能会让这个活动变得广受欢迎? 上一次,中国精英们找到的答案是Kevin Kelly,从《失控》谈到《技术元素》再到《必然》,尽管...
評分大致逻辑 文明进展到今天,人类的主题从饥荒、瘟疫和战争,转变为永生、极乐和神力(强化的超能力,如优选基因创造高智商的人的能力)。 宗教创建秩序,科学寻求力量,这两者一直相辅相承,推动文明演变。 现代文明建立在人本主义的信仰之上,其中一个分支自由主义战胜另两个分...
評分《未来简史》就像一张薄厚均匀的煎饼,除了一把味精,没有加上任何佐料,食之无味,弃之可惜。整本书以大量组织有序的事实和材料,佐以模糊的观点,试图探索人的平常性,生物是一种算法,永生,科技使极少数人脱颖而出的问题。 首先,简史二字定义了这本书不可能长篇大论地深...
評分 評分昨日和朋友聊天,我们看到当下缤纷繁杂的世界,都希望能够做点事情。但是谈了许多之后,依旧没有一个清晰的结果。之后她问我,你到底想做什么?我说,不知道,最近看完《未来简史》之后,更是惘然,觉得一切都没有意义。 当然,这并非是说我有了轻生的念头,但那种感觉却是实...
