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.

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”.

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。

读后感

I will give technology three definitions that we will use throughout the book. The first and most basic one is that a technology is a means to fulfill a human purpose. For some technologies—oil refining—the purpose is explicit. For others—the computer—t...

技术的本质是什么 人们对于单个技术很熟悉,而对技术作为一个整体,研究地很生疏,这是因为关于‘技术’到底是什么,我们并没有达成共识。 布莱恩主要基于三个基本原理,逐级地构建了他的关于技术的理论: (1)技术(所有的技术)都是某种组合,这意味着任何具体技术都是由当...

作者关于“技术”的思考非常深刻,逻辑性很强,他努力在用尽量通俗的语言去讲解很多需要专业背景知识去理解的事情。 从技术是什么到技术的组合进化,从单个技术的发展历程再到技术体(一个领域,比如电子学)的发展。进而谈到了创新的本质,提出了经济是技术的表达。最后自然而...

如果我们从电脑桌前站起来看看我们居住的房子,会发现一个让你大吃一惊的事实,那就是,在这座房子里,那些自行其是在工作着的机器的数量已经远远大于静悄悄的家具。从体积巨大的冰箱、空调,到小小的手机、电动牙刷。而且,如果让你在这中间舍弃任何一样,你都会觉得生活变得...

传统写作都讲求有立意、有提纲,但读《技术的本质》时,觉得是否可以换个思路:不考虑具体的立意与提纲,先写小的部分。 “技术都是某种组合”。这意味着什么呢?具体技术都是由不同层级组件构成的。再者组件本身也是由各类元件组成的(技术的递归性),技术会受最基础的元件制...
