举世闻名的科学家 Carl Sagan 与备受赞誉的作家 Ann Druyan 为人类物种谱写了一部 ROOTS，清晰而引人入胜地讲述了人类如何演变成今天的模样。全书兼具幽默与戏剧性，揭示了我们的许多关键特质——自我意识、技术、家庭纽带、顺从权威、仇视与自身稍有差异者、理性以及伦理——皆深深植根于久远的过去，并由我们与其他动物的亲缘关系所照亮。SHADOWS OF FORGOTTEN ANCESTORS 视野惊人、见解精辟，且极具吸引力，是一部大众科普的杰作

……去 IMAX 看看《哈勃 3D》。如果你曾经梦想过太空，你一定要去看看。真的。至于随想随谈的科学科普，我喜欢贾雷德·戴蒙德。史蒂芬·J·古尔德的书我几乎全都喜欢。最近重读了《Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors》，依然非常喜欢。我还能列出更多，但眼下这些就够了。
…IMAX and see Hubble 3D. If you ever dreamed of space, you need to see it. Really. For random science fact, I like Jared Diamond. I like virtually everything by Stephen J. Gould. I recently re-read Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors and still love that. I could list more, but that's enough for the moment.
对于想通俗入门遗传学和生命演化史的朋友，我强烈推荐阅读卡尔·萨根风格类似的著作《Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors》。
I strongly recommend reading the Carl Sagan book in a similar vein called "Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors" for folks interested in a pop-intro to genetics and the history of life.
……黑猩猩和人类之间深层次的社交相似性。即使确实如此，这些相似之处也绝不是我们愿意轻易承认的。如果你对这个话题感兴趣，想进一步阅读的话，我建议看看卡尔·萨根和安·德鲁扬合著的《Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors》。除了其他内容，它还是我刚才给你引用的那些事实的出处。最后顺便说一句，跨灵长类最显著的共性之一是……之间的联系
…level social similarities between chimps and humans. But if so, they are not similarities that we would feel comfortable admitting to. If the topic interests you, for further reading I would suggest Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors by Carl Sagan and Anne Druyan. Among other things it is the source of the facts that I just quoted for you. And as a final thought, one of strongest cross-primate similarities is a connection between…
卡尔·萨根的《Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors》一书让人大开眼界，展现了人类行为与黑猩猩的行为究竟有多么接近。https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/61662.Shadows_of_Forgott...
The book Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors by Carl Sagan is a revelation in how close human behaviour is to those of chimps. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/61662.Shadows_of_Forgott...

I would suggest Shadows of forgotten Ancestors, by Carl Sagan and Ann Druyan.
……‘去守护并珍惜这颗暗淡蓝点，这是我们所知唯一的家园。’2. 《Cosmos》。3. 《BILLIONS AND BILLIONS》——他描写得知自己身患癌症的那部分写得太优美了。4. 和安·德鲁扬合著的《Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors: A Search for Who We Are》。他写的那本小说《Contact》我从没看过。不过，天哪，我打算把他的书再加进我的待读清单里了，哈哈。
…to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known." 2. Cosmos. 3. BILLIONS AND BILLIONS - the part he described coming to know that he had cancer was beautifully written. 4. Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors: A Search for Who We Are with Ann Druyan. I never read that fiction book he wrote - Contact. But, man, I'm going to add one of his books to my To Be Read list again lol.
