……这些梗一下子就看懂了。《坚忍号》(Endurance)在今年这个书单里看起来很火。有多少人是被《七夏娃》(Seveneves)圈粉的?《七夏娃》- 尼尔·斯蒂芬森;《米与盐的岁月》- 金·斯坦利·罗宾逊;《水晶之火:信息时代的诞生》(Crystal Fire: The Birth of the Information Age)- 迈克尔·赖尔登、莉莲·霍德森;强烈推荐这本书。就像晶体管领域的《原子弹秘史》(The Making of the Atomic Bomb)。里面有大量关于约翰·巴丁、威廉……的背景故事
…references made immediate sense. Endurance looks to be popular on this list/this year. How many were inspired by Seveneves? Seveneves - Neal Stephenson The Years of Rice and Salt - Kim Stanley Robinson Crystal Fire: The Birth of the Information Age - Michael Riordan, Lillian Hoddeson; I highly recommend this book. Like The Making of the Atomic Bomb, but for the transistor. Lots of background on John Bardeen, William…
迈克尔·赖尔登与莉莲·霍德森合著的《水晶之火:晶体管的发明与信息时代的诞生》(Crystal Fire: the Invention of the Transistor and the Birth of the Information Age)是一部优秀的晶体管发展史,主要聚焦于巴丁、肖克利和布拉顿。
Crystal Fire: the Invention of the Transistor and the Birth of the Information Age by Michael Riordan and Lillian Hoddeson is a good history of the transistor, mostly focusing on Bardeen, Shockley, and Brittain.
