This book answers the most obvious, the most important, yet the most difficult question about human history: why history unfolded so differently on different continents. Geography and biography, not race, moulded the contrasting fates of Europeans, Asians, Native Americans, sub-Saharan Africans, and aboriginal Australians. An ambitious synthesis of history, biology, ecology and linguistics, Guns, Germs and Steel is one of the most important and humane works of popular science.
Jared Diamond is Professor of Physiology at the University of California, Los Angeles. Trained in physiology, he later took up the study of ecology and has made fundamental contributions to both disciplines. He is among the worlds leading zoologists and experts on birds. He has made many trips to the mountains of New Guinea to study their unique birds, rediscovered their long-lost bowerbird, and advises New Guinea governments on conservation. As well as writing technical articles in his many fields of interest, Jared Diamond writes regularly for popular science journals. He is married, and has twin sons.
不多说,感受是高屋建瓴、醍醐灌顶
评分略有些翻来覆去讲一样的话的感觉,至少可以砍掉小半本。
评分作者真是博学。杀气腾腾的书名,内容却透着温文尔雅,娓娓道来。提出的问题很精彩,引人入胜。解答很严谨,但是总有点事后诸葛的感觉,虽然很难反驳他。而且毕竟是一种高屋建瓴的视角,学一点也很有趣。真希望作者能告诉我们现今的世界会走向何方。
评分human history as a science
评分引导全书所提的问题非常简单,论述却花了大量笔墨。当时读的时候觉得很震惊,后来发现很多内容不过是将不同史料和数据进行聪明的链接。
