为什么值得读
- 阐明人类心智在开发利用自然原料上的无限潜力
- 从价格机制与科技演进反驳人口爆炸论
- 揭示知识与技术如何将廉价原料转化为可用能源
对那些主张限制人口增长以及认为自然资源和粮食即将耗尽的观点提出了强有力的反驳。推动发现新自然资源的人力资源，是Simon扩张主义理论的核心。本书与Herman Kahn的著作对于平衡呈现扩张主义与资源保护主义的观点具有重要意义。

关于我们生产用途的自然资源绝不会“耗尽”这一论点，有两个核心论据被极其雄辩地阐述过：- 朱利安·西蒙（Julian Simon）的《终极资源》[1]——人类心智在选择和探索材料利用方面拥有无限潜能；以及 - 乔治·雷斯曼（George Reisman）的《资本主义》[2]——价格现象会对实际供应以及……
Two fundamental arguments of the thesis that we will not "run out" of natural resources for productive purpose have been made eloquently in: - The Ultimate Resource by Julian Simon [1] --the human mind has limitless potential to select and pursue the use of materials; and - Capitalism by George Reisman [2] -- the phenomenon of price responds to actual supply and…
……会自动引导人们投身能源行业，从而解决高油价问题。已故经济学家朱利安·西蒙有一本非常棒的书讨论了这些问题：http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ultimate_Resource 还可以看看这里关于“资源保护”的章节：http://mises.org/rothbard/newlibertywhole.asp#p242
…automatically moves people into the energy business in order to solve the high oil price problem. The late economist Julian Simon has a terrific book about these issues: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ultimate_Resource See also the "Conservation of Resources" section here: http://mises.org/rothbard/newlibertywhole.asp#p242
……以及与之相关的“表面上的资源有限”这一概念。如果你还不熟悉他的观点，值得一看：Julian Simon 的《The Ultimate Resource》（1981年，普林斯顿大学出版社，ISBN 069109389X）、《The Ultimate Resource 2》（1996年，普林斯顿大学出版社，ISBN 0691042691）。http://www.juliansimon.com/writings/Ultimate_Resource/
…the related notion of ostensibly limited resources. Worth checking out if you are not already familiar with his viewpoint: The Ultimate Resource, 1981, Princeton University Press, ISBN 069109389X.

……单单光伏技术的发现，就意味着我们能从天上那个巨大的核聚变反应堆获取海量能源。人口增多所带来的结果，向来与你所暗示的恰恰相反。去读读西蒙斯的《终极资源》吧，那本书就是直接回击《人口炸弹》那帮人的。一堆泥土、一堆石头或一堆脏沙子之间的区别就在于技术。技术、人类知识以及……
…discovery of photovoltaic alone means we can take gigantic amounts of energy from a huge fusion reactor in the sky. More humans consistently has meant the exact opposite of what you are suggesting. Read 'The Ultimate Resource' by Simons that was a direct response to the 'Population Bomb' people. The difference between a bunch of dirt, a bunch of stone or a bunch of dirty sand is technology. Technology, human knowledge and…
对，那纯粹是一厢情愿的妄想。去看看朱利安·西蒙的《终极资源 2》、《足智多谋的地球》或《人类状况》，或者罗纳德·贝利的《地球报告 2000》。
Yep, that's a deluded fantasy all right. See "Ultimate Resource 2", "The Resourceful Earth", or "State of Humanity" by Julian Simon or "Earth Report 2000" by Ronald Bailey.
我觉得他的意思是，“见顶”根本毫无意义。90年代初有本书叫《终极资源》，作者是朱利安·西蒙。里面相当一部分是典型的自由意志主义一厢情愿，但他非常强硬地指出，在一个自由社会里，根本不存在什么“见顶”。总会有替代方案的，……
I think what's he's saying is that "peaking" is meaningless. There's a book that was written back in the early 90s called The Ultimate Resource, by Julian Simon. A fair amount of it is typical libertarian wishful thinking, but he very strongly makes the point that in a free society, there is no such thing as a peak. There are always alternatives,…
