我想推荐 James Burke 在 70 年代末 80 年代初推出的系列纪录片《Connections》[1] 和《The Day the Universe Changed》[2]。他曾是一名 BBC 记者,报道过 NASA 并从事科普传播,他特别着迷(我也是,看着他的作品长大的)的一点是那种累积性的……
I’d like to recommend James Burke’s series “Connections”[1] and “The Day the Universe Changed”[2] from the late 70s early 80s. He was a bbc journalist covering NASA and doing science communication and one of his particular fascinations (and mine, having grown up with his work) is the cumulative…
虽然你得适应他的写作风格,但 Bill Bryson 的《A Short History of Nearly Everything》(万物简史)很赞。James Burke 的《The Day the Universe Changed》发人深省,Bronowski 的《The Ascent of Man》也很好。Timothy Ferris(不是那个同名的)和 John Gribbin 也深耕过这一领域。
You have to like his writing style but bill Bryson’s short history of everything. James burke’s day the universe changed is thought provoking and bronowski’s ascent of man is also good. Timothy Ferris (not that one) and John gribbin have also trod this area.

……这里最权威的经典推荐是 Thomas Kuhn 的《科学革命的结构》(The Structure of Scientific Revolutions)[1],但我也强烈建议看一下 James Burke 的电视系列片《Connections》[2],然后看或读他的《The Day the Universe Changed》[3],借此了解我们对“现实”或“真理”的全部认知是如何深受当时的技术所决定的。最后,在没有科学……的领域里其实存在着很多“真理”
…canonical recommendation here is Thomas Kuhn's The Structure of Scientific Revolutions [1], but I also strongly recommend watching James Burke's Connections tv series [2] and then watching or reading his The Day the Universe Changed [3] to understand how our entire conception of "reality" or "truth" is so strongly determined by the technology of the time. Finally, there are lots of "truths" in fields where this is no scientific…
我推荐 James Burke 的《Connections》或《The Day the Universe Changed》(我记得好像绝版了?)。这些并不是面面俱到的科学史,但它们展示了科学、技术与社会之间是如何紧密相连的。写得简直好极了……
I recommend Connections or The Day the Universe Changed (out of print, I think?), both by James Burke. These aren't comprehensive histories of science, but they show how science, technology, and society are intimately connected. They are incredibly well written…
……书)。Michael Ruppert 的《Collapse》。还有几部不在列表上的:讲石油故事的《The Prize》(根据 Daniel Yergin 的同名书改编);James Burke 的《Connections》和《The Day the Universe Changed》;以及大量的会议演讲、访谈和各种其他报告。格外有用的一点是,不要用辣鸡在线播放器看,而是把视频下载下来……
…book). "Collapse" with Michael Ruppert. And a few which aren't on the list: "The Prize", on the story of petroleum, based on Daniel Yergin's book of the same name. James Burke's "Connections" and "The Day the Universe Changed". And numerous conference presentations, interviews, and various other presentations. What's particularly useful is watching these not online through a crappy video player, but by downloading the videos,…
