具體描述
The world-famous cosmologist and #1 bestselling author of A Brief History of Time leaves us with his final thoughts on the biggest questions facing humankind.
Stephen Hawking was the most renowned scientist since Einstein, known both for his groundbreaking work in physics and cosmology and for his mischievous sense of humor. He educated millions of readers about the origins of the universe and the nature of black holes, and inspired millions more by defying a terrifying early prognosis of ALS, which originally gave him only two years to live. In later life he could communicate only by using a few facial muscles, but he continued to advance his field and serve as a revered voice on social and humanitarian issues.
Hawking not only unraveled some of the universe’s greatest mysteries but also believed science plays a critical role in fixing problems here on Earth. Now, as we face immense challenges on our planet—including climate change, the threat of nuclear war, and the development of artificial intelligence—he turns his attention to the most urgent issues facing us.
Will humanity survive? Should we colonize space? Does God exist? These are just a few of the questions Hawking addresses in this wide-ranging, passionately argued final book from one of the greatest minds in history.
Featuring a foreword by Eddie Redmayne, who won an Oscar playing Stephen Hawking, an introduction by Nobel Laureate Kip Thorne, and an afterword from Hawking’s daughter, Lucy, Brief Answers to the Big Questions is a brilliant last message to the world.
用戶評價
##補標，對於對這些問題有基本認識的讀者來說還是嫌太簡略
評分##人人都該讀的一本書，霍金的遠見真是常人不可及的。未來人類的發展主要是尋找地球以外的生存地以及引導AI的發展方嚮。每次提到Trump就覺得好笑。最後說要盡可能尋找下一個Einstein，wherever she might be. 這個she看到也覺得真暖。
評分##Q&A in a theoretical level. Good for outsiders but lame for peers
評分##朗讀者小本。
評分##As if I'm reading the Torvalds' book all over again - another kind of geniuses; different paths from known to unknown; glossing over the hardships; and the same kind of dry humor.
評分##有的人走瞭，他還活著。霍金用不乏幽默的語調描述瞭光明的科學前景，不用再等一個世紀，用霍金的話來說，再過50年，就會是另一個新的世界。期待2022年Elon Musk用科技徵服宇宙！全書共十章，每一章最後Lucy都問瞭父親一個問題，霍金的迴答都很睿智。末尾的Afterword聽起來也叫人心傷/心疼，宇宙裏不再有ALS.
評分##As if I'm reading the Torvalds' book all over again - another kind of geniuses; different paths from known to unknown; glossing over the hardships; and the same kind of dry humor.
評分##中文譯本易讀，標注一下以免重復
