An introduction to a new way of looking at history, from a perspective that stretches from the beginning of time to the present day, "Maps of Time" is world history on an unprecedented scale. Beginning with the Big Bang, David Christian views the interaction of the natural world with the more recent arrivals in flora and fauna, including human beings. Cosmology, geology, archeology, and population and environmental studies - all figure in David Christian's account, which is an ambitious overview of the emerging field of 'Big History.' "Maps of Time" opens with the origins of the universe, the stars and the galaxies, the sun and the solar system, including the earth, and conducts readers through the evolution of the planet before human habitation. It surveys the development of human society from the Paleolithic era through the transition to agriculture, the emergence of cities and states, and the birth of the modern, industrial period right up-to intimations of possible futures. Sweeping in scope, finely focused in its minute detail, this riveting account of the known world, from the inception of space-time to the prospects of global warming, lays the groundwork for world history - and Big History - true as never before to its name.

大历史是一切人类的首个起源故事。如果大历史就是一个起源故事,那么它也是一切人类的首个起源故事。由于它出现在一个高度密集化的相互联系的世界,它是首个为全体人类为了自己所创造的起源故事。传统的起源故事试图从特定的社群或者地区或者文化传统中概括出某种知识,而这是...

有幸跑到老师那里去找了原版来看,很易懂,遣词造句都是简单的,没有太难懂的部分,不过太厚……所以回头来看中文译本。 大部分的理解都没有问题,但是别扭地厉害。同时也有不少不通顺和翻译造成的理解障碍。 内容很是广博,从big bang宇宙大爆炸到现今的时代,物理化学生物...

我真是在凭良心打分,虽然这本书看得我血管都快爆了。

Still have reservations about big history, but this book sends shivers down my spine. A must-read especially for the sci-fi fans among historians.

真的没有仔细的去看这么一部大作品,由于是英文版的不能很好的理解,有时候仅仅是出于完成作业的需求而已。不过它有一个如此宏大的题目,有一个颇具野心的观点,应该是本好书

召唤史前史与人类史的互通,将人类的历史置于生物圈甚至整个宇宙的历史之中,在当下学术和知识日益碎片化的情况下,试图打破学科界限,提供统合性的新知识,讲述了从宇宙大爆炸至今,宇宙、地球、生命、人类的“大历史”。在人类愈发自我中心主义化的今天,将眼光放大到绝地天通的历史境界,或许可以避免井底观天。It's ebook is available in wechat public page: iAudioBook
