图书描述

Life is getting better—and at an accelerating rate. Food availability, income, and life span are up; disease, child mortality, and violence are down — all across the globe. Though the world is far from perfect, necessities and luxuries alike are getting cheaper; population growth is slowing; Africa is following Asia out of poverty; the Internet, the mobile phone, and container shipping are enriching people’s lives as never before. The pessimists who dominate public discourse insist that we will soon reach a turning point and things will start to get worse. But they have been saying this for two hundred years. Yet Matt Ridley does more than describe how things are getting better. He explains why. Prosperity comes from everybody working for everybody else. The habit of exchange and specialization—which started more than 100,000 years ago—has created a collective brain that sets human living standards on a rising trend. The mutual dependence, trust, and sharing that result are causes for hope, not despair. This bold book covers the entire sweep of human history, from the Stone Age to the Internet, from the stagnation of the Ming empire to the invention of the steam engine, from the population explosion to the likely consequences of climate change. It ends with a confident assertion that thanks to the ceaseless capacity of the human race for innovative change, and despite inevitable disasters along the way, the twenty-first century will see both human prosperity and natural biodiversity enhanced. Acute, refreshing, and revelatory, The Rational Optimist will change your way of thinking about the world for the better.

Be critical towards the world if you want to make it a better place but quit being all whiny and depressing because the world we are living in is absolutely wonderful and amazing.

要环保?先工业化! 2012-02-01 首先需要指出的是,笔者不是“环保主义者”。笔者赞成保护环境,是为了让人类生活得更好;笔者不赞成那种为了保护环境而牺牲人类生活质量的反人类的环保主义。本文的所有观点都以此为前提。 今天的人们总是把工业时代之前的生活想像得充满田园...

这个世界似乎永远充满着悲观的论断,大部分看起来都事实确凿、逻辑严明,他们从当前现实生活中的种种细节,推断出未来世界将不可避免地走向衰落。从温室效应、经济崩溃、千年虫甚至末日审判,悲观的推断不仅曾经出现,并且还将继续推陈出新。在革新和转折的时代,这样的论断与...
