a oeExplain to us why you wish to enter The Academy.a Candidates for The Academy must endure a grueling entrance exam, and young Anaximander has chosen as her special subject the life of Adam Forde, her long-dead hero. She begins by telling Fordea (TM)s story: Late in the twenty-first century the island Republic has managed to survive a devastating worldwide plague by isolating its citizens completely from outside contact. For many years, approaching ships and planes are gunned down, refugees are shot on sight. No one is allowed in or out. The islanders are safe, but not free. Until a man named Adam Forde rescues a girl from the sea... a oeAnaximander, we have asked you to consider why it is you would like to join The Academy. Is your answer ready?a To answer that deceptively simple question, Anaximander finds she must struggle with everything she has ever known about herself and her beloved Republica (TM)s history. What is the nature of being human, of being conscious? What does it mean to have a soul? And when everything has been laid bare, she must confront The Republica (TM)s last great secret, her own surprising link to Adam Forde, and the horrifying truth about her world.Genesis is a provocative novel of ideas that forces us to contemplate the very essence of what it means to be human. You will want to finish it in one sitting, and you will want to listen to it again and again.

評分要我说的话,这是一本伪装成科幻小说的哲学书,读完以后只需用四个字来形容:毛骨悚然。 读这本书的时候,我坐在街头的转角,人来车往熙熙攘攘川流不息。 读到那个末日浩劫的开端时,我居然在暖风袭人的早春温度里不自觉地战栗起来,我抬起头,突然意识到在我身边穿行而过的形...
評分如果思想也是有意识的,它一定会选择一种更为有利于它生存的方式吧,就像是物竞天择,适者生存一样的道理。究竟是人创造了各种器具,还是观点创造了它们?书中想要讨论的问题感觉不甚明确,人类是不是渴望着思想,又害怕着思想,因为它的不可控制性和变异性,是不是非得一切都...
評分很短小的一本关于人工智能的科幻小说。说是完全关于人工智能,其实有点不公平,毕竟这个主题在全书的一半左右才开始浮现出来。前一半我读的时候还是很像一个劫后余生的异托邦的故事:原有的世界毁灭了,剩余的人们在一个有远见的领袖的带领下成为延续人类文明火种的希望。我觉...
