图书描述

"More than any thing else technology creates our world. It creates our wealth, our economy, our very way of being," says W. Brian Arthur. Yet, until now the major questions of technology have gone unanswered. Where do new technologies come from -- how exactly does invention work? What constitutes innovation, and how is it achieved? Why are certain regions -- Cambridge, England, in the 1920s and Silicon Valley today -- hotbeds of innovation, while others languish? Does technology, like biological life, evolve? How do new industries, and the economy itself, emerge from technologies? In this groundbreaking work, pioneering technology thinker and economist W. Brian Arthur sets forth a boldly original way of thinking about technology that gives answers to these questions. The Nature of Technology is an elegant and powerful theory of technology's origins and evolution. It achieves for the progress of technology what Thomas Kuhn's The Structure of Scientific Revolutions did for scientific progress. Arthur explains how transformative new technologies arise and how innovation really works. Conventional thinking ascribes the invention of technologies to "thinking outside the box," or vaguely to genius or creativity, but Arthur shows that such explanations are inadequate. Rather, technologies are put together from pieces -- themselves technologies -- that already exist. Technologies therefore share common ancestries and combine, morph, and combine again to create further technologies. Technology evolves much as a coral reef builds itself from activities of small organisms -- it creates itself from itself; all technologies are descended from earlier technologies. Drawing on a wealth of examples, from historical inventions to the high-tech wonders of today, and writing in wonder fully engaging and clear prose, Arthur takes us on a mind-opening journey that will change the way we think about technology and how it structures our lives.

这本书Amazon上很多人给了四星，我想可能理工科同学看起来更有感觉吧。对于我来说，那些例子连篇的专业单词暂且不论，即使是IDEA，也好像有点剖析得过于细致了点，像做外科手术一样把科技肢解开，然后呢？然后说科技是建立在之前技术的基础上的……当然不可否认，作者很卖力地很详细地去解释他的观点，这点还是很considerate，但是对于一个别人很好理解的点，有的时候也许不需要这么长篇幅来作解吧。当然，也可能是我太浅薄了，没有读懂其中的精华所在。

This is one of the few books that I had high expectation for but chose to throw away after wading through the first chapters. Self-claimed originality and stifling pedantry are just the nature of “Bore-ology”.
