"Is Google making us stupid?" When Nicholas Carr posed that question, in a celebrated Atlantic Monthly cover story, he tapped into a well of anxiety about how the Internet is changing us. He also crystallized one of the most important debates of our time: As we enjoy the Net's bounties, are we sacrificing our ability to read and think deeply? Now, Carr expands his argument into the most compelling exploration of the Internet's intellectual and cultural consequences yet published. As he describes how human thought has been shaped through the centuries by "tools of the mind"--from the alphabet to maps, to the printing press, the clock, and the computer--Carr interweaves a fascinating account of recent discoveries in neuroscience by such pioneers as Michael Merzenich and Eric Kandel. Our brains, the historical and scientific evidence reveals, change in response to our experiences. The technologies we use to find, store, and share information can literally reroute our neural pathways. Building on the insights of thinkers from Plato to McLuhan, Carr makes a convincing case that every information technology carries an intellectual ethic--a set of assumptions about the nature of knowledge and intelligence. He explains how the printed book served to focus our attention, promoting deep and creative thought. In stark contrast, the Internet encourages the rapid, distracted sampling of small bits of information from many sources. Its ethic is that of the industrialist, an ethic of speed and efficiency, of optimized production and consumption--and now the Net is remaking us in its own image. We are becoming ever more adept at scanning and skimming, but what we are losing is our capacity for concentration, contemplation, and reflection. Part intellectual history, part popular science, and part cultural criticism, The Shallows sparkles with memorable vignettes--Friedrich Nietzsche wrestling with a typewriter, Sigmund Freud dissecting the brains of sea creatures, Nathaniel Hawthorne contemplating the thunderous approach of a steam locomotive--even as it plumbs profound questions about the state of our modern psyche. This is a book that will forever alter the way we think about media and our minds.
Nicholas Carr is the author of The Shallows, The Big Switch, and Does IT Matter? He has written for the New York Times, The Atlantic, The Guardian, Wired, and other periodicals. He lives in Colorado with his wife.
三星半。不是没有养分,但一个五星的杂志长文还是不要各种延伸比较好些

评分well-researched and quite thought-provoking, provided great introductory information for a variety of fields relating to cognition and information technology
评分工具会异化人,智力工具会异化人的心智,而且被异化的心智将失去深入思考从而发现自己被异化这一事实。我们也许创造不出人工智能,但图灵测试很可能通过,因为我们自己会被变成计算机。
评分此书在互联网对人类整个阅读的影响的讨论具有历史意义
不知道各位有没有这种感觉: 浏览网页的时候,常常被文章中间或者侧边栏的链接吸引了去,浮光掠影地从一个链接跳到另一个链接,很少返回最初的页面;有时,也会Mark存档一些看上去很有价值的长文,结果却很少回去读它们。 在电脑前阅读很难有以前读纸质书的全神贯注。我们更...
评分作为一个地地道道地网虫,作为一个一天离开电脑离开互联网就活不下去的生物来说,这本书的确更发人深省。 随着视线逐渐模糊,随着颈椎不时疼痛,随着右肩日渐耸起,大脑也发出一个警告,需要戒网了。第一次看到浅薄这两个字,振聋发聩。作者用无数实验和事例告诉我们,人...

评分我们的大脑具有高度的可塑性,书中提到的心理学和生理学实验已经足够证明了,互联网改变我们大脑的结构,进而影响我们的思维方式、阅读方式注意力等等,我们不得不面对。就在我读这本书的过程中,我发现我已经不太容易集中注意力将某一章连续读完,即使读完也没有太深刻的印象...
