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. By adopting the principles of proaction and engagement, we can steer technologies into their best roles. And by aligning ourselves with the long-term imperatives of this near-living system, we can capture its full gifts. Written in intelligent and accessible language, this is a fascinatin
1952年,凯文•凯利出生于美国东北部宾夕法尼亚州。19岁,他从罗得岛大学退学。接下来,他做了8年左右的独立摄影师,去过亚洲十几个国家。1979年,27岁的时候,凯利去中东的耶路撒冷,在哪里成为基督徒。之后,他骑自行车穿越美国大陆。然后,《连线》开始进入KK生命,并以一种预告未来的方式切入时代脉搏。凯文•凯利参与创建《连线》杂志,在前7年里担任执行主编。他在《纽约时报》、《经济学人》、《科学》、《时代》和《华尔街日报》以及其他许多出版物上发表文章。已出版著作包括畅销书《失控》和《新经济的新规则》。
来评价一本刚刚在美国发行、还没有出中文版的书籍可能有点不太适宜,但是由于和作者KK聊了两个多小时,写个东西纪念这位老人。他的所得无论对错,却似我两年硅谷生活的画龙点睛之笔。 “技术到底想要什么?” “生命想要什么,技术就想要什么。“ “你是说,技术想要的和生命...
评分首先是两个基本的翻译问题。一,technology怎么翻?译者的选择是“科技”,但科技(science & technology)里的科(science)并不是修饰词,而是和技(technology)并列的另一个概念。具体到书中的用法,一方面科学方法被描述为技术发展史上的一个节点,另一方面绘画诗歌音乐舞...
评分最近“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...
评分一本奇异的书。 随着阅读的推进,不断重塑认知的边界,一层一层抬升视野。 当我们逐渐意识到,科技或者说所有纵横在时空里的人类活动,都具有独立生命体一般的自我演化能力和逻辑,并由此窥见一些走势与未来的时候,甚至会在刹那间有一种属神的喜悦。 翻译也很好,向译者致敬!
评分Apparently, the most important term the author coined is technium, which refers to the kind of "organism" or self-organization formed by technology. It appears as a fascinating concept that technology has been evolving in a similar way a single-cell creatur...
