在盖茨的书单里可以看到不少这样关注人类重大话题的书,对于普通人来说这样的书太枯燥了,盖茨也承认“the topic can be dry as a desert”,不过他还是觉得这本书丰富的插图和推演过程值得一看。另外这本书可以在作者的网站免费下载喔,感兴趣的同学可以去找一下~
盖茨评语:Although the topic can be dry as a desert, the authors keep it light with lots of colorful illustrations and clever analogies without sacrificing clarity or rigor. I learned a lot from this thoughtful look at a critical topic.
Eradication: Ridding the World of Diseases Forever?, by Nancy Leys Stepan
很多年过六旬的中国人主要关注养生学,而盖茨关注的点还是人类的一些重大话题。这本书对于普通读者还是显得晦涩难懂,不过一旦你下了功夫去读,还是会获益良多的。
盖茨评语:Stepan's history of eradication efforts gives you a good sense of how involved the work can get, how many different kinds of approaches have been tried without success, and how much we've learned from our failures. She writes in a fairly academic style that may make it hard for non-experts to get to her valuable arguments, but it's worth the effort. You come away from it with a clearer sense of how we can use the lessons of the past to guide future efforts to save lives.
Mindset: The New Psychology of Success, by Carol S. Dweck
