Are we “noble in reason”? Perfect, in God’s image? Far from it, says New York University psychologist Gary Marcus. In this lucid and revealing book, Marcus argues that the mind is not an elegantly designed organ but rather a “kluge,” a clumsy, cobbled-together contraption. He unveils a fundamentally new way of looking at the human mind -- think duct tape, not supercomputer -- that sheds light on some of the most mysterious aspects of human nature.

Taking us on a tour of the fundamental areas of human experience -- memory, belief, decision-making, language, and happiness -- Marcus reveals the myriad ways our minds fall short. He examines why people often vote against their own interests, why money can’t buy happiness, why leaders often stick to bad decisions, and why a sentence like “people people left left” ties us in knots even though it’s only four words long.

Marcus also offers surprisingly effective ways to outwit our inner kluge, for the betterment of ourselves and society. Throughout, he shows how only evolution -- haphazard and undirected -- could have produced the minds we humans have, while making a brilliant case for the power and usefulness of imperfection.

这是一本让我在阅读过程中不断发出“我嚓原来是这样”感叹的书。 作者从进化论和社会实验入手,阐述了人类大脑在进化过程中产生的一些缺陷,并以此为基础对记忆、信念、选择、快乐等抽象事物的形成作出了诠释。 其中贯穿文章始终的是一个叫“克鲁机(Kluge)”的概念,其原始意...

开始觉得很好,后来渐渐觉得这本书的内容写得很乱,就是定了个大主题后就开始信马由缰。有些小实验挺有趣,但这本书说讲的道理不深,很表象。

嗯.是这么回事,可是这类书怎么都这么啰嗦呢
