关于这个话题，绝对必读的一本书是斯特鲁加茨基的《难为人神》（Hard To Be God；http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_to_Be_a_God ），它对整个最高指令（Prime Directive）问题进行了极其深刻的思辨（基本论点是：施加正面影响远比看起来要难得多，这也是书名的由来）
On that subject, an absolutely must-read book is "Hard To Be God" (by Strugatsky; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_to_Be_a_God ), an absolutely brilliant meditation on the whole Prime Directive issue (basic thesis: it's harder to bring in positive influence than it seems, thus the title)
……做程序员相关的活儿，当时有个退伍军人加入公司当 DBA。我们聊起科幻，我很喜欢克拉克，他就提到了斯特鲁加茨基兄弟。我开始读他们的书，《难为人神》是我的第一本。然后我就彻底沉迷了。之后我读了《塔赫马西布》（Tachmasib）、《斜坡上的蜗牛》、《男孩》、《波浪平息了风》、《路边野餐》、《死去的登山者客栈》……[1]，基本上全读了……
…something working as programmer, when one retired military guy joined the company as DBA. We discussed science fiction, I was fond of Clark, and he mentioned Strugatsky brothers. I started reading it, "It's hard to be a god" was my first book. Then I got swallowed. After that I read "Tachmasib", "Snail on a Slope", "Small boy", "Waves calm down the Wind", "Roadside Picknick", "Dead alpinist Inn", ... [1], basically everything…
斯特鲁加茨基兄弟的《难为人神》。同一作者大约 1965 年的《星期六始于星期一》。那是一个充满绝妙幽默的讽刺故事，主角是科研所里的一个程序员……
"Hard to be a God" of Strugatsky Brothers. "Monday Begins on Saturday", circa 1965, of the same authors. That is a satiric story full of brilliant humor about programmer (main hero) in Scientific Research Institute of…
这是阿尔卡季和鲍里斯·斯特鲁加茨基的作品，他们是莱姆的同时代人。顺便说一句，我最喜欢的斯特鲁加茨基兄弟的小说是《难为天神》（Hard to Be a God）和《The Doomed City》。
This is by Arkady and Boris Strugatsky, who were contemporaries of Lem. FWIW by favorite Strugatsky novels were Hard to Be a God, and The Doomed City.
在我看来，《路边野餐》和《斜坡上的蜗牛》是他们（A·B·斯特鲁加茨基兄弟）最好的两部作品。我也很喜欢其他的，比如《星期六始于星期一》或者《难为人神》。厄休拉·勒古恩的科幻小说也是从非常不同的视角来写的。地海系列偏奇幻，但独树一帜。还有一本讲的是人们结成四人婚姻的星球……
Roadsise Picnic and The Snail on the Slope are IMO two of their best books (A. B. Strugatsky). I really liked others like Monday starts on Saturday or It's hard to be a God. Sci Fi by Ursula k. Le Guin is also written from a very different perspective. Earthsea cycle, which is more fantasy, but unike any other. Also the book on the planet where people marry in quadruplets,…
如果要挑三本塑造了我这个人的书，我会加上 Robert Sheckley 的《问个蠢问题》[0] 和斯特鲁加茨基兄弟的《难以为神》[1]。不过这两本更多是在讲谦逊和帝国主义，而不是学习本身。[0] https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/33854 [1] https://content.cosmos.art/media/pages/library/hard-to-be-a-...
If I had to pick three books that made me who I am, I would add Ask A Foolish Question by Robert Sheckley [0] and Hard to Be a God by Strugatsky brothers [1]. Those two are more about humility and imperialism than learning, though. [0] https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/33854 [1] https://content.cosmos.art/media/pages/library/hard-to-be-a-...
