枪炮、病菌与钢铁 Douban Goodreads
Guns, Germs and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies
★ 8.5 (283 ratings) author: [美国] 贾雷德·戴蒙德 translator: 谢延光 publishing house: 上海世纪出版集团 2006 - 4
为什么是欧亚大陆人征服、赶走或大批杀死印第安人、澳大利亚人和非洲人,而不是相反?为什么么小麦和玉米、牛和猪以及现代世界的其他一些“不了起的”作物和牲畜出现在这些特定地区,而不是其他地区?在这部开创性的著作中,演化生物学家贾雷德.戴蒙德揭示了事实上有助于形成历史最广泛模式的环境因素,从而以震撼人心的力量摧毁了以种族主义为基础的人类史理论,因其突出价值和重要性,本书荣获1998年美国普利策奖和英国科普书奖,并为《纽约时报》畅销书排行榜作品。
本书是理解人类社会发展史方面的一个重大进展,它记录了现代世界及其诸多不平等所以形成的原因,也是一部真正关于全世界各民族的历史,是对人类生活的完整一贯的叙述,娓娓道来,具有很强的可读性。

"It's just a matter of trial and error. You try something, it doesn't work. You try it another way, maybe it works even less well, or maybe it works a little bit better. It really is the dark room that Henry James describes. It's a sort of groping, and continuously trying things out, and understanding why something fails. The key is to try to understand what are the elements that are failing, and why, and then you move on to the next draft with a little bit more of clarity."
