"Is Google making us stupid?" When Nicholas Carr posed that question, in a celebrated Atlantic Monthly cover story, he tapped into a well of anxiety about how the Internet is changing us. He also crystallized one of the most important debates of our time: As we enjoy the Net's bounties, are we sacrificing our ability to read and think deeply? Now, Carr expands his argument into the most compelling exploration of the Internet's intellectual and cultural consequences yet published. As he describes how human thought has been shaped through the centuries by "tools of the mind"--from the alphabet to maps, to the printing press, the clock, and the computer--Carr interweaves a fascinating account of recent discoveries in neuroscience by such pioneers as Michael Merzenich and Eric Kandel. Our brains, the historical and scientific evidence reveals, change in response to our experiences. The technologies we use to find, store, and share information can literally reroute our neural pathways. Building on the insights of thinkers from Plato to McLuhan, Carr makes a convincing case that every information technology carries an intellectual ethic--a set of assumptions about the nature of knowledge and intelligence. He explains how the printed book served to focus our attention, promoting deep and creative thought. In stark contrast, the Internet encourages the rapid, distracted sampling of small bits of information from many sources. Its ethic is that of the industrialist, an ethic of speed and efficiency, of optimized production and consumption--and now the Net is remaking us in its own image. We are becoming ever more adept at scanning and skimming, but what we are losing is our capacity for concentration, contemplation, and reflection. Part intellectual history, part popular science, and part cultural criticism, The Shallows sparkles with memorable vignettes--Friedrich Nietzsche wrestling with a typewriter, Sigmund Freud dissecting the brains of sea creatures, Nathaniel Hawthorne contemplating the thunderous approach of a steam locomotive--even as it plumbs profound questions about the state of our modern psyche. This is a book that will forever alter the way we think about media and our minds.
Nicholas Carr is the author of The Shallows, The Big Switch, and Does IT Matter? He has written for the New York Times, The Atlantic, The Guardian, Wired, and other periodicals. He lives in Colorado with his wife.
一本将近十年前就读过的书,最近又听了一遍...|大概对当时来说Neuroplasticity还很新,简单来讲就是想说fragmented info/online reading让人更难专注地进行深刻的思考。当下meditation兴起也算是一种回击了。果然十年以后没人需要读这本书就知道了这个道理,但大家还是孜孜不倦心甘情愿地被抖音洗脑吧- -算法早就改变了我们生活的方方面面。
评分via jeff 思考就是对思考形式和思考内容的控制,这种控制权应该留给自己,而不是留给机器和互联网。
评分well-researched and quite thought-provoking, provided great introductory information for a variety of fields relating to cognition and information technology
评分看看無妨,資料豐富,但寫得不太嚴謹。反正不是學術著作就是了
评分前半本都在讲发展史,完全可以略过不看
《浅薄——你是互联网的奴隶还是主宰者》由美国思想家尼古拉斯·卡尔撰写,描写出随着技术的发展,我们的大脑思维发生了怎样的改变以及为什么会产生这样的改变。 该书的英文名为The Shallows(What the Internet is doing to our brains)在英文书名中副标题只是中立地提...

评分你将要读到的文章,跟几乎卫报所有的内容一样——你可能已经猜出来了——是一台联网的电脑打出来的。显然,电脑和网络使我的调查相对轻松,与文章提到的人物沟通更简单,除此之外没有其他好处了。现在人们对现代通信技术的使用是如此熟稔,以至于完全没有新鲜感。但让我记忆犹...
评分惊心动魄的一本书!!(本书颇有点罗嗦,不过也许,这是作者观点的见证,人们已经失去了读长篇大论的能力) 作者一上来就用实验数据来证明了,synapses 是用进废退的。经常锻炼使用的大脑功能会越发加强,不经常使用的慢慢退化消失。 网络,电脑,有着太多的distraction,每秒...
评分不知道各位有没有这种感觉: 浏览网页的时候,常常被文章中间或者侧边栏的链接吸引了去,浮光掠影地从一个链接跳到另一个链接,很少返回最初的页面;有时,也会Mark存档一些看上去很有价值的长文,结果却很少回去读它们。 在电脑前阅读很难有以前读纸质书的全神贯注。我们更...
