圖書描述

In his earlier bestsellers Guns, Germs and Steel and Collapse, Jared Diamond transformed our understanding of what makes civilizations rise and fall. Now, in the final book in this monumental trilogy, he reveals how successful nations recover from crisis through selective change — a coping mechanism more commonly associated with personal trauma.

In a dazzling comparative study, Diamond shows us how seven countries have survived defining upheavals in the recent past — from US Commodore Perry’s arrival in Japan to the Soviet invasion of Finland to Pinochet’s regime in Chile — through a process of painful self-appraisal and adaptation, and he identifies patterns in the way that these distinct nations recovered from calamity. Looking ahead to the future, he investigates whether the United States, and the world, are squandering their natural advantages, on a path towards political conflict and decline. Or can we still learn from the lessons of the past?

Adding a psychological dimension to the awe-inspiring grasp of history, geography, economics, and anthropology that marks all Diamond’s work, Upheaval reveals how both nations and individuals can become more resilient. The result is a book that is epic, urgent, and groundbreaking.

作者對中國的解讀不知道是停留在哪個年代，難以認同，拿齣的優劣對比之處早已發生改變。尤其”the biggest single disadvantage that will prevent China from ever catching up with the U.S. in average income per person—as long as the U.S. remains democratic and China remains non-democratic.” 不論哪種體製，最終還是得看最高決策人的水平；另，感謝美帝披著外衣的『民主』，不然不會有川某上颱，天天給娛樂新聞加料。期待美帝將民主進行到底！

Diamond寫這本書的時候82歲瞭——他在書裏自己說的，他不說我還不知道，總以為他纔六十來歲，然後自己嚇瞭一跳，原來看Germs，guns and steel已經是十年前的事瞭。很顯然，82歲的Diamond寫這本書的時候，想著的是“要給地球留下點什麼”。這本書講不同國傢應對危機的方式，舉瞭七個不同程度上成功應對危機的例子，而最後兩章關於現代的日本和美國，則是結局還未見分曉。最後一部分，則從國傢擴展到整個人類所麵對的危機。我的感想：1）一直覺得Diamond太囉嗦，這本書居然並不讓我厭煩，大概每個國傢的故事都講得清楚，有新的知識點；2）具體故事比作者隆重推齣的應對危機12點要好看，12點不是不好，但沒有什麼讓人醍醐灌頂的新意。3）既然不覺得這本書囉嗦，我決定把之前沒看完的上一本再翻齣來。

It has a lot in common when dealing with personal crisis and national crisis.Familiarity with changes that did or didn’t work in the past can serve us as a guide. The crisis in Japan and the United States is well described.

Very insightful book. Jared老爺子的書真的是沒話說，希望每個對現代史感興趣的人都讀一讀。前半部分掃盲，後半部分從新的角度分析國際問題，其中美中比較很有意思，關於展望世界的部分有些cliche，but still a great book in general！另外，雖然老爺子在後記中提到自己數據和樣本的稀缺性，但整本書很多問題的解釋都是“according my friend”，難免讓人覺得難以信服（但人傢畢竟是Jared Diamond，他的朋友的可信度肯定是很大的…）唉，我要是在這個年齡也能看過世界變遷，往來無白丁，也算不枉走一遭瞭～

The book resonates with me so much. The author had gone through a personal crisis arising from the dilemma between discontinueing his field of studies and becoming a simultaneous translator. I used to have similar personal crisis like the author did. I also...
