100,000 years ago, at least six human species inhabited the earth. Today there is just one.
Us.
Homo sapiens.
How did our species succeed in the battle for dominance? Why did our foraging ancestors come together to create cities and kingdoms? How did we come to believe in gods, nations and human rights; to trust money, books and laws; and to be enslaved by bureaucracy, timetables and consumerism? And what will our world be like in the millennia to come?
In Sapiens, Dr Yuval Noah Harari spans the whole of human history, from the very first humans to walk the earth to the radical - and sometimes devastating - breakthroughs of the Cognitive, Agricultural and Scientific Revolutions. Drawing on insights from biology, anthropology, palaeontology and economics, he explores how the currents of history have shaped our human societies, the animals and plants around us, and even our personalities. Have we become happier as history has unfolded? Can we ever free our behaviour from the heritage of our ancestors? And what, if anything, can we do to influence the course of the centuries to come?
Bold, wide-ranging and provocative, Sapiens challenges everything we thought we knew about being human: our thoughts, our actions, our power ... and our future.
DR. YUVAL NOAH HARARI has a PhD in History from the University of Oxford and now lectures at the Department of History, the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, specialising in World History. His research focuses on broad historical questions, such as: What is the relation between history and biology? Is there justice in history? Did people become happier as history unfolded?
65,000 people have taken his online course, "A Brief History of Humankind," and Sapiens is a huge bestseller in Israel and is being published in more than 20 languages worldwide. In 2012 Harari was awarded the annual Polonsky Prize for Creativity and Originality in the Humanistic Disciplines. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
最重要的是,膽子夠大。對自己,對彆人,都夠狠。已經開始重讀。
評分韆萬,韆萬不要把你的錢浪費在這本書上。以後再看這種「大曆史」、"a brief history of ..."的書就剁手。
評分書很好玩啊,雖然流於籠統,像個玩笑之作。另外Harari的課太囉嗦瞭,可見還是看書好啊,廢話兩個小時就能翻完……感覺演化心理學在熠熠生輝,還感覺Harari對曆史的看法跟牟宗三差不多。。“我們現在所知的世界,不過是隨機曆史事件的偶然結果……學習曆史的目的在於解脫桎梏,讓我們能更靈活地轉動我們的腦袋,用新的方式進行思考,發現未來的無限可能。”

評分作者文筆不錯, 讀起來很生動. 對我來講非常mindblowing的幾個觀點: 智人與其他動物最基本的區彆在於其想象力-能構建和錶達不存在/抽象的東西; 若多種智人都生存下來, 現代社會將會是什麼樣子; 農業革命是個人幸福感的倒退, 卻促進瞭群體的發展; 對於早期文字係統的發展, 文字本身的齣現隻是其中一環, 更重要的是文字信息的分類記錄係統; 種族歧視是曆史偶然在社會, 經濟, 政治和文化的惡性循環中産生的. 還是第一章講智人起源的部分最powerful.
孟子主张性善论,三字经也有这样的句子,“人之初,性本善”。而当我看完《人类简史》之后,对人 “善”的观点瞬间破灭。 作者尤瓦尔•赫拉利,青年的历史学家。《人类简史》他用简单的语言、真实的历史实例,写出了复杂、难懂又枯燥的人类史。本书讲述了人类对世界...
評分乘地铁,车还没到,抬头看电视屏幕,瞥见一个穿白大褂的中年男人正在讲解割双眼皮的三种方式,对面的广告牌上,一个美丽的女人骄傲地展示着整容之后的五官,大眼睛,双眼皮,尖下巴,眼神迷离,一脸茫然。 我并不想对整容做道德评价,而是想还原一个事实:我们已经生活在一个...
評分我常想,人类学的重要意义,大概就是提醒我们,更广大的世界,在我们的视线之外。我们习惯于偏向与我们的社会结构和文化结构相近的群体,而容易忽视了异世界的“确有价值”。因此当我听闻最近有一本“奇书”——《人类简史》,我便有了强烈的阅读兴趣。 以色列作家尤瓦尔•赫...
