"More thriller than primer, this is the best technology book I have ever read." -Nicholas Negroponte, author of Being Digital
In this provocative book, one of today's most respected thinkers turns the conversation about technology on its head by viewing technology as a natural system, an extension of biological evolution. By mapping the behavior of life, we paradoxically get a glimpse at where technology is headed-or "what it wants." Kevin Kelly offers a dozen trajectories in the coming decades for this near-living system. And as we align ourselves with technology's agenda, we can capture its colossal potential. This visionary and optimistic book explores how technology gives our lives greater meaning and is a must-read for anyone curious about the future.
Kevin Kelly is Senior Maverick at Wired magazine. He co-founded Wired in 1993, and served as its Executive Editor from its inception until 1999. He is also editor and publisher of the Cool Tools website, which gets half a million unique visitors per month. From 1984-1990 Kelly was publisher and editor of the Whole Earth Review, a journal of unorthodox technical news. He co-founded the ongoing Hackers' Conference, and was involved with the launch of the WELL, a pioneering online service started in 1985. He authored the best-selling New Rules for the New Economy and the classic book on decentralized emergent systems, Out of Control."
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...
评分通读了两遍《科技想要什么》后,我将总结下K.K在本书的论述中所体现的思维方式和推理思路: 1. 间断的思考和无条理地组织思路 首先,本书大量地出现破折号和括号,用以作补充阐述。这并非只有偶然几处,而是随处可见;数量如此之大,我们不得不怀疑K.K的思路并不是顺畅的、有...
评分按:最近中信出版社出版了凯文·凯利(Kevin Kelly,后简称KK)《技术想要什么》一书中文版(中信版译为《科技想要什么》),第一时间买来读完之后发现,作为一部技术哲学书,KK写得极好看,数据翔实,逻辑分析清晰透彻,语言(译文)简洁生动。非常具有启发性和思考性。是我最...
评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...
评分如果生活中没有网络,我会是今天这个样子么? 答案一定不是。更好或更坏就说不准了,但是从某种程度上我喜欢网络带给我的变化。 使满足感最优化 和使选择最优化这是一对矛盾的选择。 超简约主义者获得满足感的同时失去了探索能力。他们没有认识到而且也不能发现自己的潜力。 ...
