竞争可能如苹果派一样是典型的美国特色，但社会科学家 Alfie Kohn 认为，无论在职场、学校、运动场还是家庭中，彼此争胜的拼搏都会让我们所有人沦为输家。与伴随我们成长的传统观念截然相反，Kohn 指出竞争绝非不可避免的人性一部分。它并不能激发我们发挥出最佳水平，也非磨炼品格之途，反而会侵蚀自尊心并破坏人际关系。Kohn 主张我们需要重塑现有体制，使一个人的成功不再建立在另一个人的失败之上。在这部修订版中

我以前也深入钻研过这个领域（虽然大概是十年前了），我觉得最相关的也就是阿尔菲·科恩（Alfie Kohn）的书了。比如《No Contest》、《Punished by Rewards》等等。不过那些更多是关于育儿和学校体系的，如果你找的是儿童早期发展方面的书，那其实真没多少。
I've gone down this rabbit hole before (albeit around ten years ago), I think the closest there are are the Alfie Kohn books. E.g. No Contest, Punished by Rewards, etc. Those are more about parenting and the school system, there aren't really any books on early childhood development if that's what you're looking for.
如果你对教育理论感兴趣，可能会喜欢阿尔菲·科恩的书《No Contest: The Case Against Competition》（反对竞争）。它非常深刻地剖析了竞争带来的系统性影响，其中还涉及了作弊等问题。挺有意思的是，最近我发现自己主要都在读那些反直觉的……
If you're into educational theory, you might like Alfie Kohn's book No Contest: The Case Against Competition. It's a really good look at the systemic effects of competition. It touches on cheating among other things. It's funny, these days I find myself mostly reading counter-intuitive…

我只读反直觉的非虚构类作品。我想着，嘿，我这么聪明，如果某件事符合直觉，那我大概自己就能琢磨明白。以下是我最常引用的书单：阿尔菲·科恩的《No Contest》与《Punished by Rewards》、阿兰·德波顿的《Status Anxiety》（身份的焦虑）、PG（保罗·格雷厄姆）的随笔与 ITConversations 访谈、约翰·泰勒·加托的《The Underground History of American Education》、以及《The Singularity is……
I only read non-fiction that's counterintuitive. I figure, hey, I'm pretty smart, so if it's intuitive then I can probably figure it out on my own. A list of stuff I cite most often: No Contest & Punished by Rewards by Alfie Kohn Status Anxiety by Alain de Botton PG's essays & ITConversations interviews The Underground History of American Education by John Taylor Gatto The Singularity is…
证据表明，对竞争的偏好源于文化而非生理本能。欲知详情，可以看看阿尔菲·科恩的书《No Contest: The Case Against Competition》。
The evidence suggests that preference for competition comes from culture and not biology. Check out Alfie Kohn's book No Contest: The Case Against Competition for more details.
