具體描述
Robert Wright is an American journalist who writes about science, history and religion, including The Evolution of God, Nonzero: The Logic of Human Destiny, The Moral Animal, Why Buddhism is True, and Three Scientists and Their Gods: Looking for Meaning in an Age of Information. He is the co-founder and editor-in-chief of Bloggingheads.tv.
Why Buddhism is True: The Science and Philosophy of Meditation and Enlightenment is a 2017 book by journalist and evolutionary psychologist Robert Wright. As of August 2017, the book had peaked at The New York Times No. 4 bestseller in hardcover nonfiction.
In Why Buddhism is True, Wright advocates a secular, Westernized form of Buddhism focusing on the practice of mindfulness meditation and stripped of supernatural beliefs such as reincarnation. He further argues that more widespread practice of meditation could lead to a more reflective and empathetic population and reduce political tribalism. In line with his background, Wright draws heavily on evolutionary biology and evolutionary psychology to defend the correctness of Buddhism's diagnosis of the causes of human suffering. He argues the modern psychological idea of the modularity of mind resonates with the Buddhist teaching of no-self (anatman).

評分 評分 評分 評分##這本書去除瞭超自然現象，隻留下哲學和冥想修行的方法論，隻把佛陀當成一個覺悟瞭的哲學傢，用現代科學的知識，嘗試解釋一些佛學的概念和觀點。 一、苦：快樂是短暫的，痛苦是永恒的 1、佛陀觀點：苦即不滿足。 2、科學解釋：人是基因編碼的程序，基因通過對欲望（即對快樂的預期）來驅使人做對基因傳播有利的事。欲望滿足即為樂，不能滿足即為苦。但基因設定快樂是短暫的（因為持續的快樂會削弱人追求快樂的動力），所以...
