In a frank and unpretentious series of letters addressed to a teenage granddaughter, this highly original book teaches us to know and understand the world we live in and its rules, and how to behave in it. In these thirty letters, Alan Macfarlane answers his granddaughter's questions about how the world works, how it got to be as it is, what it could be, and where she fits in. Lily's enquiries range from the intimate, personal and moral to the political, social and philosophical. What is the nature of good and evil? What is religion? How can I be truly me? Is right and wrong the same wherever you are? What is beauty? Does there have to be torture? Does money matter? Is knowledge always good? What is progress? What is truth? What is sex? Is democracy a good idea? These are just a few of the questions. In responding to Lily's challenging problems, Alan Macfarlane, from a lifetime's experience as a historian, anthropologist and teacher, ranges through history and across the world's cultures. Her questions are timeless. His answers add up to a classic.

这位天外来客十有八九会断言,人类真是莫名其妙啊。他们明明只是动物,可他们好像自以为别具一格。他们拿不定主意,到底应该看重自己的精神还是肉体。他们也委决不下,到底应该看重自己的感官还是思想。他们自视不朽,而终于要死亡。他们自诩为造物主,却沦为许多其他物种的爪...
评分听说是本中学生就能读懂的书,于是就开始津津有味地读了起来。个人觉得,麦克法兰老前辈对整个英格兰的诠释,直达政治、宗教及哲学等各个领域,虽然涉及领域广,但其诙谐幽默的口吻娓娓道来,读起来很畅快,值得一读。
