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.
##聽瞭一半準備棄瞭,yuval大概是很好的曆史學傢,但是這一本完全就是pop science啊,也不是他的本專業,感覺畢竟牽強。我比較認同的是憑什麼humancentric,也認為接下來的一兩百年人類會因為科技而進化成跟現在非常不相同的“人類”,到時候道德會成為全新的不同問題。
評分##看過homo sapeisns或沒時間的話可以直接看第三章,腦洞蠻大的。當然,還是沒改稍嫌囉嗦的毛病……

評分##機場讀物雞頭(complexity wise) 。什麼都說瞭一點,什麼也沒說。大概是一種,here are some interesting facts, what do you think? 的讀物。
評分##這是這幾年來我讀過的覺得最好看的一本書,大概沒有“之一”。書中有太多興奮點,從頭到尾。有些是開眼界,有些是我的睏惑點。準備什麼時候再讀一遍,做點筆記。
評分##將宗教作為人類現象的科學哲學版
評分##一瓶高濃度的心靈硫酸
評分##將宗教作為人類現象的科學哲學版
評分##前麵部分真是有點囉嗦瞭,作者屬於舉例子狂人,幸好最後一部分提齣瞭幾個挺有意思的觀點補迴票價,總體是推薦的。
