The book starts out like the setup for some punny science fiction joke: An alien walks into a museum and asks if he can see a paleontologist. But the arachnid ET hasn't come aboard a rowboat with the Pope and Stephen Hawking (although His Holiness does request an audience later). Landing at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, the spacefarer (named Hollus) asks to compare notes on mass extinctions with resident dino-scientist Thomas Jericho. A shocked Jericho finds that not only does life exist on other planets, but that every civilization in the galaxy has experienced extinction events at precisely the same time. Armed with that disconcerting information (and a little help from a grand unifying theory), the alien informs Jericho, almost dismissively, that "the primary goal of modern science is to discover why God has behaved as he has and to determine his methods."

作为科幻,这本书的idea并不新鲜。它好就好在三观端正。这才是在写小说。从细节里所看到的是真正的,值得尊敬的科学家,有好奇心、尊严、同时也是脆弱的人。外星人并不是都是来侵略的,去他x的侵略,去他x的先见政府首脑,我们只是来地球看一看化石,为了好奇心。好奇心是什么...
評分索耶的小说真的可以称作是幻想科学,在少量幻想的基础上,通过严格的逻辑推理,得到非比寻常的结论。这本书绝对称得上是硬科幻的经典之作了。故事很简单,作者娓娓道来,科学观和价值理念润物细无声。 ps,我对这本书中的生命游戏程序很感兴趣,写了一段matlab代码,可以直接...
評分 評分46是个奇妙的数字。 在恢宏巨著《计算中的上帝》单行本中,伟大的博物学家罗伯特.J.索耶描述了一个与人类迥异的外星智慧种族——Wreeds,这一族的眼睛长成了360度的一圈。对生物来说,眼睛的结构影响着它们认知世界和自身的方式,从而在最根源就决定了它们的思维。 以多物体...
