An enormous intellectual adventure. In this groundbreaking new book, the American biologist Edward O. Wilson, considered to be one of the world's greatest living scientists, argues for the fundamental unity of all knowledge and the need to search for consilience--the proof that everything in our world is organized in terms of a small number of fundamental natural laws that comprise the principles underlying every branch of learning. Professor Wilson, the pioneer of sociobiology and biodiversity, now once again breaks out of the conventions of current thinking. He shows how and why our explosive rise in intellectual mastery of the truths of our universe has its roots in the ancient Greek concept of an intrinsic orderliness that governs our cosmos and the human species--a vision that found its apogee in the Age of Enlightenment, then gradually was lost in the increasing fragmentation and specialization of knowledge in the last two centuries. Drawing on the physical sciences and biology, anthropology, psychology, religion, philosophy, and the arts, Professor Wilson shows why the goals of the original Enlightenment are surging back to life, why they are reappearing on the very frontiers of science and humanistic scholarship, and how they are beginning to sketch themselves as the blueprint of our world as it most profoundly, elegantly, and excitingly is.
The biologist Edward O. Wilson is a rare scientist: having over a long career made signal contributions to population genetics, evolutionary biology, entomology, and ethology, he has also steeped himself in philosophy, the humanities, and the social sciences.

这本书值得欣赏。intellectual mastery要求太高了暂且不提EOW数学真的差啊。朴素的阅读心得如下：知识本不应该人为划分切割，由此带来的狭隘会极大制约人的思维（很简单的事情需要花费大把青春来理解） 作为个体我们需要奋力保持对人和世界的认知和观察力以及健康的人格和情感。万物静观皆自得，四时佳兴与人同。看惯悲喜交加让人寂寞..寂寞能让人明朗通达，冷静也不乏温情.体会人性怡悦爱意流连..人... 这本书值得欣赏。intellectual mastery要求太高了暂且不提EOW数学真的差啊。朴素的阅读心得如下：知识本不应该人为划分切割，由此带来的狭隘会极大制约人的思维（很简单的事情需要花费大把青春来理解） 作为个体我们需要奋力保持对人和世界的认知和观察力以及健康的人格和情感。万物静观皆自得，四时佳兴与人同。看惯悲喜交加让人寂寞..寂寞能让人明朗通达，冷静也不乏温情.体会人性怡悦爱意流连..人的知识比所谓的专业知识更重要吧。 (展开)
