The Development of an Extraordinary Species We human beings share 98 percent of our genes with chimpanzees. Yet humans are the dominant species on the planet -- having founded civilizations and religions, developed intricate and diverse forms of communication, learned science, built cities, and created breathtaking works of art -- while chimps remain animals concerned primarily with the basic necessities of survival. What is it about that two percent difference in DNA that has created such a divergence between evolutionary cousins? In this fascinating, provocative, passionate, funny, endlessly entertaining work, renowned Pulitzer Prize–winning author and scientist Jared Diamond explores how the extraordinary human animal, in a remarkably short time, developed the capacity to rule the world . . . and the means to irrevocably destroy it.

作者简介 · · · · · ·
贾雷德·戴蒙德(Jared Diamond),美国加利福尼亚大学洛杉矶分校医学院生理学教授,美国艺术与科学院、国家科学院院士,是当代少数几位探究人类社会与文明的思想家之一。
戴蒙德的研究使他获奖无数,包括美国国家科学奖、美国地理学会伯尔奖、泰勒环境贡献奖、日本国际环境和谐奖和麦克阿瑟基金会研究基金。
《第三种黑猩猩》是戴蒙德教授第一本为知识大众写的书,也是他首次获得英国科普图书奖的作品。书中的一些重要论点,在其后的《枪炮、病菌与钢铁》以及《崩溃:社会如何选择成败兴亡》中做了更完整的铺陈,被合称为“人类大历史三部曲”。

与黑猩猩基因相似度98%的人类,为何能创造出灿烂的地球文明?
科学家视野中的人类简史
这篇书评可能有关键情节透露
古人说“人之异于禽兽者几希”,这个论断竟然得到了现代科学的证实。科学家们发现,人类与的基因组中,有98%与黑猩猩一样。人与猩猩之间的基因差异如此微小,所以在生物学家眼中,人类就是另一种“黑猩猩”。但正是这2%的些许差异使我们成为万物之灵,冲破了人兽之别的藩篱。贾... (展开)论坛 · · · · · ·

Overall I feel this book tries to discuss multiple topics, loosely related. Some part is more insightful than the others. I am certainly more interested in the first part, and I did not feel the last parts innovative. Maybe the author did this intentionally. (展开)

星级: ★★★★ 这也是芒格老爷子推荐的一本书。 这本是作者经典三部曲中的第一部,其中第二部就是大名鼎鼎的《枪炮、病菌与钢铁》。 书中的很多观点在最近几年畅销全球的《人类简史》中都有提及,所以阅读本书有似曾相识的感觉。 但是仍然推荐大家阅读,因为这本书写得通俗易懂,是一本很好的科普书籍。 对我来说通过本书学习了自然选择和性选择的区别,因此很多从自然选择角度难以解释的问题,从性选择的角度来说就一... 星级: ★★★★ 这也是芒格老爷子推荐的一本书。 这本是作者经典三部曲中的第一部,其中第二部就是大名鼎鼎的《枪炮、病菌与钢铁》。 书中的很多观点在最近几年畅销全球的《人类简史》中都有提及,所以阅读本书有似曾相识的感觉。 但是仍然推荐大家阅读,因为这本书写得通俗易懂,是一本很好的科普书籍。 对我来说通过本书学习了自然选择和性选择的区别,因此很多从自然选择角度难以解释的问题,从性选择的角度来说就一目了然。 (展开)

时隔几年回首看看这本书,思路分析深受芝大社会学和哈佛人类学影响。今时今日回想这本书,可能病菌改变世界很多些吧,病菌会撕裂社会结构造成冲突,同时形成病菌既得利益群体,他们从中获益很多,加之低生育动能不足和老年化老人政治推手,加之权力更替的维稳态势,不敢轻举妄动势成骑虎…
