具体描述
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
Yuval Noah Harari, author of the critically-acclaimed New York Times bestseller and international phenomenon Sapiens, returns with an equally original, compelling, and provocative book, turning his focus toward humanity’s future, and our quest to upgrade humans into gods.
Over the past century humankind has managed to do the impossible and rein in famine, plague, and war. This may seem hard to accept, but, as Harari explains in his trademark style—thorough, yet riveting—famine, plague and war have been transformed from incomprehensible and uncontrollable forces of nature into manageable challenges. For the first time ever, more people die from eating too much than from eating too little; more people die from old age than from infectious diseases; and more people commit suicide than are killed by soldiers, terrorists and criminals put together. The average American is a thousand times more likely to die from binging at McDonalds than from being blown up by Al Qaeda.
What then will replace famine, plague, and war at the top of the human agenda? As the self-made gods of planet earth, what destinies will we set ourselves, and which quests will we undertake? Homo Deus explores the projects, dreams and nightmares that will shape the twenty-first century—from overcoming death to creating artificial life. It asks the fundamental questions: Where do we go from here? And how will we protect this fragile world from our own destructive powers? This is the next stage of evolution. This is Homo Deus.
With the same insight and clarity that made Sapiens an international hit and a New York Times bestseller, Harari maps out our future.
用户评价
想起Coursera一门耶鲁开的美国宪法课上教授说到，率先给予女性选举权的是西部的怀俄明和犹他州，因为男女人口差距悬殊，目的是吸引女性前来定居。人权当然是靠争取来的，但它并不天生正确，而是因为有需要。哲学推理不能证明人人生而平等，之所以认可是因为权衡之后还是这样比较好。古时未必没有诞生过人文主义者，只是没有发展的土壤。事情会发生是因为可以，不是因为正确，如果人类可以被抛弃，为什么不？会有新的理论来为此作支撑。
评分##前面部分真是有点啰嗦了，作者属于举例子狂人，幸好最后一部分提出了几个挺有意思的观点补回票价，总体是推荐的。
评分##经万维钢提练后，也是分了五部分陈述了书内的主要内容。很不过瘾，希望可以买到原文亲眼过一遍。

评分##Somewhat repetitive from time to time, but definitely worth every repetition!
评分##一瓶高浓度的心灵硫酸

评分##听了一半准备弃了，yuval大概是很好的历史学家，但是这一本完全就是pop science啊，也不是他的本专业，感觉毕竟牵强。我比较认同的是凭什么humancentric，也认为接下来的一两百年人类会因为科技而进化成跟现在非常不相同的“人类”，到时候道德会成为全新的不同问题。
