INTRODUCTION
In a time when terrorists play death-games with hostages,
as currencies careen amid rumors of a third World War, as
embassies flame and storm troopers lace up their boots in
many lands, we stare in horror at the headlines. The price of
goldfthat sensitive barometer of fear--breaks all records.
Banks tremble. Inflation rages out of control. And the gov-
crnments of the world are reduced to paralysis or imbecility.
Faced with all this, a massed chorus of Cassandras fills the
air with doom-song. The proverbial man in the street says
the world has "gone mad," while the expert points to all the
trends leading toward catastrophe.
This book offers a sharply different view.
It contends that the world has not swerved into lunacy, and
that, in fact, beneath the clatter and jangle of seemingly
senseless events there lies a startling and potentially hopeful
pattern. This book is about that pattern and that hope.
The Third Wave is for those who think the human story,
far from ending, has only just begun.
A powerful tide is surging across much of the world today,
creating a new, often bizarre, environment in which to work,
play, marry, raise children, or retire. In this bewildering con-
text, businessmen swim against highly erratic economic cur-
rents; politicians see their ratings bob wildly up and down;
universities, hospitals, and other institutions battle desperately
against inflation. Value systems splinter and crash, while the
lifeboats of family, church, and state, are hurled madly about.
Looking at these violent changes, we can regard them as
国家崩溃的观点我是支持的,但其“电子家庭”的设想是失败的。作者是个家庭主义者,但政治经济学方面似乎并不很巩固,没有理解家庭产生与消亡的历史过程。 这是三十年前的著作,具有相当的前瞻性。现在依旧不乏其价值。
評分这本书耗了很久,断断续续很长时间,到现在才看完。本来看完书应该写点读后感什么的,不过现在越来越觉得自己很无知,而且文辞又不啥地,不敢写。尤其这本书,更加不敢评论,因为一次看不透。书的内容是看得懂的,是非常精彩的,很有启发性的。作者被定位为未来学家,不过这书...
評分2002年,我还在读大三,大概是那一年,电子商务课上的老吕用短短几节课的时间向我们展现了已经实现的、尚未实现的种种信息时代将带给人们的奇妙幻景,并用“啤酒+泡沫”的比喻来论证这种幻境的真实性。其中最真实的疯狂莫过于他描述与《第三次浪潮》的作者托夫勒的一面之缘,...
評分这是一本未来学名著,但是我以为它的价值并不仅仅在于未来。 “核心家庭”、大学的出现,这些在工业社会中应需要产生的东西为什么产生,我觉得这种思考是最重要的。至于未来是什么,那是另外一回事。 用看未来的眼光看世界,就能够坦然面对今天的动荡。毕竟,世界不曾宁静。
評分那天圖書館遇上James,他推薦的。他強調這本書amazing,而且不會再版瞭。。語言很易懂,可能年代久遠的緣故,倒不覺得觀點很驚艷。
