Elegant, suggestive, and clarifying, Lewis Thomas's profoundly humane vision explores the world around us and examines the complex interdependence of all things. Extending beyond the usual limitations of biological science and into a vast and wondrous world of hidden relationships, this provocative book explores in personal, poetic essays to topics such as computers, germs, language, music, death, insects, and medicine. Lewis Thomas writes, "Once you have become permanently startled, as I am, by the realization that we are a social species, you tend to keep an eye out for the pieces of evidence that this is, by and large, good for us."
Lewis Thomas was a physician, poet, etymologist, essayist, administrator, educator, policy advisor, and researcher. A graduate of Princeton University and Harvard Medical School, he was the dean of Yale Medical School and New York University School of Medicine, and the president of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Institute. He wrote regularly in the New England Journal of Medicine, and his essays were published in several collections, including The Lives of a Cell: Notes of a Biology Watcher, which won two National Book Awards and a Christopher Award, and The Medusa and the Snail, which won the National Book Award in Science. He died in 1993.

Nowak在《超级合作者》中看上去有一种恨不得把“合作”供起来的感觉。他提出,合作是进化的总设计师,是进化最重要的机制,说以前达尔文(主义者)都是谈竞争,这不对,其实合作更重要。托马斯在本书中有时候也有点这个意思,但是还好。我想说,Nowak看错了,也误解了达尔文。...
评分是一本小书,由作者多年撰写的评论合集出版。所以从各章节内容看,是独立而不连贯的,是作者的思考,而不是强要灌输给读者什么对错观念。 因为出版的年代早了,书中的很多观点经过这些年的推广,已经为人所知,比如,人和自然(动物)世界的关系是共存共荣的、细胞细菌...
评分《细胞生命礼赞》《失控》《复杂》三部曲。 假设有一个生命体,它的神经反射弧非常长,动作非常慢,以至于一年呼吸一次。。。那么芸芸众生在它眼力岂不是和基本粒子一样不停做着无规则运动,毫无生命气息可言,而真正有生命的东西,倒不如说是沧海桑田。其实未必需要先前的假设...
评分想当年,黑川纪章的“共生”思想流行。买了他的书读,没有读太懂,照猫画虎,设计课上,在房子边加了几棵树,牵强地解释自己的设计如何“天人合一”。 后来,读到老子的“天地不仁,以万物为刍狗”,听到木心先生说“天人合一,是人的一厢情愿”时,内心像被电击了似的,颤了好...
评分刘易斯.托马斯是美国科学院院士,是个大人物,朋友强其做文,才有今天我们看到的《细胞生命的礼赞》、《水母与蜗牛》等书。一个好的科学家不一定可以成为好的科普作家,但一个大的科学家往往可以写出“深入浅出”、“妙笔生花”的科普作品,究其原因在于致广大而尽精微,博而精...
