Joichi "Joi" Ito has been recognized for his work as an activist, entrepreneur, venture capitalist, and advocate of emergent democracy, privacy, and Internet freedom. As director of the MIT Media Lab, he is currently exploring how radical new approaches to science and technology can transform society in substantial and positive ways. Ito has served as both board chair and CEO of Creative Commons, and sits on the boards of Sony Corporation, Knight Foundation, the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, The New York Times Company, and The Mozilla Foundation. Ito's honors include TIME magazine's "Cyber-Elite" listing in 1997 (at age 31) and selection as one of the "Global Leaders for Tomorrow" by the World Economic Forum (2001). In 2008, BusinessWeek named him one of the "25 Most Influential People on the Web." In 2011, he received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Oxford Internet Institute. In 2013, he received an honorary D.Litt from The New School in New York City, and in 2015 an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree from Tufts University. In 2014, he was inducted into the SXSW Interactive Hall of Fame; also in 2014, he was one of the recipients of the Golden Plate award from the Academy of Achievement.
Jeff Howe is the program coordinator for Media Innovation at Northeastern, and an assistant professor at Northeastern University. A longtime contributing editor at Wired magazine, he coined the term crowdsourcing in a 2006 article for that magazine. In 2008 he published a book with Random House that looked more deeply at the phenomenon of massive online collaboration. Called Crowdsourcing: How the Power of the Crowd is Driving the Future of Business, it has been translated into ten languages. He was a Nieman Fellow at Harvard University during the 2009-2010 academic year, and is currently a visiting scholar at the MIT Media Lab. He has written for the Washington Post, Newyorker.com, The New York Times, Time, Newsweek, and many other publications. He currently lives in Cambridge with his wife and two children.
"The future," as the author William Gibson once noted, "is already here. It's just unevenly distributed." WHIPLASH is a postcard from that future.
The world is more complex and volatile today than at any other time in our history. The tools of our modern existence are getting faster, cheaper, and smaller at an exponential rate, just as billions of strangers around the world are suddenly just one click or tweet or post away from each other. When these two revolutions joined, an explosive force was unleashed that is transforming every aspect of society, from business to culture and from the public sphere to our most private moments.
Such periods of dramatic change have always produced winners and losers. The future will run on an entirely new operating system. It's a major upgrade, but it comes with a steep learning curve. The logic of a faster future oversets the received wisdom of the past, and the people who succeed will be the ones who learn to think differently.
In WHIPLASH, Joi Ito and Jeff Howe distill that logic into nine organizing principles for navigating and surviving this tumultuous period. From strategically embracing risks rather than mitigating them (or preferring "risk over safety") to drawing inspiration and innovative ideas from your existing networks (or supporting "pull over push"), this dynamic blueprint can help you rethink your approach to all facets of your organization.
Filled with incredible case studies and leading-edge research and philosophies from the MIT Media Lab and beyond, WHIPLASH will help you adapt and succeed in this unpredictable world.
首先让读者朋友们确认三个标签:你自诩为互联网达人;你总觉得这个世界发展得太快,正常的思维不断被颠覆,也就是说你觉得自己的脑子明显不够用了;你很想看透这个互联网科技、商业世界的运转逻辑,很想抢先一步拿到未来生存密码的金钥匙。 如果你具备以上三种特质。那么,摆在...
評分很高兴能够读到由美国伊藤穰一和杰夫•豪这两位具有卓越远见的杰出的学者共同写作的《爆裂》。正如《爆裂》一书所言,对于这样具有前瞻性的书籍,越早读到就会越早让这卓越的见解在我们的头脑中生根发芽。 在《爆裂》一书中也详细记述了前短时间被吵得沸沸扬扬的“阿...
評分最近看的书里面,有两本都提到了2011年的福岛核泄漏事件。一个是从科幻的角度,由导致核泄漏的地质结构,展开了人类的毁灭之旅;另一本书就是炙手可热的《爆裂》,它用传奇般的讲述,展示了伊藤穰一发起的拯救计划。 伊藤穰一是谁?他是《爆裂》的作者之一,另一位是杰夫·豪;...
評分用《爆裂》这本书的说法就是,今天这个时代,出现了三个前所未有的条件,那就是——不对称性、复杂性和不确定性。 1.不对称性 不对称主要是指少数人和小机构获得了颠覆性的力量,类历史中很长一段时间,都是以大欺小,20多年来,一切都发生了改变。让人印象最深刻的...
作者之一大學沒畢業卻當上MIT media lab主任,和書的主題相得益彰:在飛速變化的時代,如何調整公司管理、學術研究的方式纔能不被“拍在沙灘上”。不能算寫得很好的書,但是能引發很多思考,就值得一讀。
评分讀完Introduction、Conclusion和每一節的PS部分就差不多。舉的例子有些有啓發性,然而越後麵的章節越不明就裏,特彆不知道跟論點的關係是什麼。知易行難,懂得瞭道理仍然……。
评分暢銷書,把一些結論性的標題套上一些實例,其實基本上沒有多少啓發性。
评分作為學生,還是該多多反思media lab的精髓何在。joi ito是真正的把這些principles活齣來瞭的,讓人尊敬!
