圖書描述

Humanity can make short work of the oceans’ creatures. In 1741, hungry explorers discovered herds of Steller’s sea cow in the Bering Strait, and in less than thirty years, the amiable beast had been harpooned into extinction. It’s a classic story, but a key fact is often omitted. Bering Island was the last redoubt of a species that had been decimated by hunting and habitat loss years before the

explorers set sail.

As Callum M. Roberts reveals in The Unnatural History of the Sea, the oceans’ bounty didn’t disappear overnight. While today’s fishing industry is ruthlessly efficient, intense exploitation began not in the modern era, or even with the dawn of industrialization, but in the eleventh century in medieval Europe. Roberts explores this long and colorful history of commercial fishing, taking readers around the world and through the centuries to witness the transformation of the seas.

Drawing on firsthand accounts of early explorers, pirates, merchants, fishers, and travelers, the book recreates the oceans of the past: waters teeming with whales, sea lions, sea otters, turtles, and giant fish. The abundance of marine life described by fifteenth century seafarers is almost unimaginable today, but Roberts both brings it alive and artfully traces its depletion. Collapsing fisheries, he shows, are simply the latest chapter in a long history of unfettered commercialization of the seas.

The story does not end with an empty ocean. Instead, Roberts describes how we might restore the splendor and prosperity of the seas through smarter management of our resources and some simple restraint. From the coasts of Florida to New Zealand, marine reserves have fostered spectacular recovery of plants and animals to levels not seen in a century. They prove that history need not repeat itself: we can leave the oceans richer than we found them.

浙江、福建等沿海地区,习惯把渔民叫做“讨海人”。讨海,寓意“向海讨生活”。先民们畏惧海之神威,但为生活所迫却不得不靠海吃海,便以这样谦卑的语词乞求自然的谅解。不知道从何时开始,人和海的关系改变了,人认为自己是大海的主宰,可以肆无忌惮地向海洋索取。日复一...

百鬼夜谈品书3——鬼海勾沉 人干点好事儿总想让鬼神知道,以降福报;而干点坏事儿总存幸鬼神不知道,所以鬼神们太为难了,人心好难测! 常言道人心似海深,倘若有比人心还难测的东西,恐怕便是由人写成的书了。 只要有湖的地方,便常有湖妖水鬼;此言非虚,未名湖畔依旧阴...

(刊于《人民日报》2016年10月18日) 文/俞耕耘 倘若以生命起源的视野看,海洋无疑是我们的原初摇篮。人类在陆地生存的“文明”,在漫长的进化史面前,不禁显得沧海一粟。英国海洋生物学家卡鲁姆·罗伯茨的《假如海洋空荡荡》,或许就像一个警世的箴言,提醒我们:生命既然可...

海洋,根据百度百科上的定义“地球表面被各大陆地分隔为彼此相通的广大水域称为海洋,其总面积约为3.6亿平方公里,约占地球表面积的71%,海洋中含有十三亿五千多万立方千米的水,约占地球上总水量的97%,而可用于人类饮用只占2%。”陆地面积只占29%,我们从小在课本上还...
