具体描述

Jared Diamond, a noted polymath, is Professor of Geography at the University of California, Los Angeles. Among his many awards are the U.S. National Medal of Science, Japan’s Cosmos Prize, a MacArthur Foundation Fellowship, a Pulitzer Prize for General Nonfiction, and election to the U.S. National Academy of Sciences. He is the author of the international best-selling books Guns, Germs, and Steel, Collapse, Why Is Sex Fun?, The World until Yesterday, and The Third Chimpanzee, and is the presenter of TV documentary series based on three of those books.

In his earlier bestsellers Guns, Germs and Steel and Collapse, Jared Diamond transformed our understanding of what makes civilizations rise and fall. Now, in the final book in this monumental trilogy, he reveals how successful nations recover from crisis through selective change — a coping mechanism more commonly associated with personal trauma.

In a dazzling comparative study, Diamond shows us how seven countries have survived defining upheavals in the recent past — from US Commodore Perry’s arrival in Japan to the Soviet invasion of Finland to Pinochet’s regime in Chile — through a process of painful self-appraisal and adaptation, and he identifies patterns in the way that these distinct nations recovered from calamity. Looking ahead to the future, he investigates whether the United States, and the world, are squandering their natural advantages, on a path towards political conflict and decline. Or can we still learn from the lessons of the past?

Adding a psychological dimension to the awe-inspiring grasp of history, geography, economics, and anthropology that marks all Diamond’s work, Upheaval reveals how both nations and individuals can become more resilient. The result is a book that is epic, urgent, and groundbreaking.

##作者准备这部书的6年间包括落笔时绝对不会预料到2020年这场突如其来的疫情,但他在书中的分析和预测,今天来看,一步步地更加接近于现实。 围绕着12个“影响国家危机结果的因素”,作者以芬兰(芬苏之战)、日本(明治维新)、德国(一战、二战)、澳大利亚(身份回归)、智利...

不愧是Jared Diamond,以独到新颖的角度,用个人类比国家以此更形象深刻地理解危机的概念和影响,并用12个与危机产生结果有关的因素构成的框架很全面深入地剖析7个国家和全世界遭遇的不同危机和相应应对措施,预示未来潜在的危机,提议更严谨详细的量化研究和通过对历史经验的学习更好地应对危机,叙述通俗易懂诙谐幽默;第9章对美国的剖析中涉及到与中国的比较将两国的优缺点都列举出来,国内若引进估计不会完整保留。

##这本书我原本是很期待的,毕竟作者之前的名气在那,然后也看到多方称赞,上了很多书单推荐。然而,我看了之后,非常失望。盛名之下其实难副。 这本书在我看来总共就3个模块,第一模块用他的分析模型分析了几个国家的发展,在这个分析的过程中,可以看到作者很明显的倾向:美化...

##作者从个人应对危机的心理治疗方法中总结出12个与危机相关的因素,将其扩展到应对国家危机乃至全球危机上。本书的主题:个人、团体、企业、国家、乃至世界都有面临危机和压力的时候。危机可能来自外部,也可能来自内部。不管来自外部或内部都需要选择性地进行改变,对国家和个人来说都是如此。个人觉得本书在第八章后渐入佳境,分别讨论了日本,美国,和全球可以预见的危机问题。英文版中对中国的评价务实,中文版有删节。

##华沙一跪的Willy Brandt,出过大丑闻。他本身就有强烈的Socialist倾向,身边重要幕僚还是东德间谍,并且还陷入过性丑闻(美人计间谍)。他那一跪到底是反省NAZI还是跪舔华约,值得讨论。
