This provocative book introduces a brand-new view of technology. It suggests that technology as a whole is not a jumble of wires and metal but a living, evolving organism that has its own unconscious needs and tendencies. Kevin Kelly looks out through the eyes of this global technological system to discover "what it wants." He uses vivid examples from the past to trace technology's long course and then follows a dozen trajectories of technology into the near future to project where technology is headed. This new theory of technology offers three practical lessons: By listening to what technology wants we can better prepare ourselves and our children for the inevitable technologies to come.

評分最近“致青春”很火,套用网上一个哥们的话来说:对我们这些长的丑的人来说只有大学没有青春。既然没有青春可致,那么我们就换个话题:聊聊生命!然而"生命赋予每个人只有一次,人的一生应该这样度过……",很多年前读到这段的时候,我也难以理解保哥,丫怎么就跟打了鸡血似的...
評分这两天停电正好把KK《科技需要什么?》看完了,感觉就是一个科技文化谜米倒腾了一整本书,虽然知识面看起来很广,其实错误不少,且不说译者把technology译成科技(其实很明显就是技术元素),当然KK自己都弄不清楚自己到底是在说科学还是技术或者科技文化,而诸如“硅,碳的同...
