Hacker News 上怎么说

  • ……大概是对战争和军事策略最了如指掌的评论家了。二战题材的《最后的雄狮》第 1 和第 2 卷是关于丘吉尔的,涉及大量的军事战略。你还应该去看看《风云紧急》加上丘吉尔写的关于二战的其他六卷本。天哪,我能一直说下去。我的床头柜上放着《装甲元帅》和《高卢战记》……尽情享受吧……附言:等你融会贯通之后,你就会听到……

    …is probably the most informed pundit on war and military strategy. WW-II "The Last Lion" books 1 and 2 are about Churchill and they involve lots of military strategy. You should also check out "The gathering storm + the other six books Churchill wrote on WWII. Man I could go on forever. I have "Panzer General" and "Caesar's Conquest of Gaul" on my nightstand... Enjoy... PS: Once you're well versed you'll hear…

  • 很遗憾并没有;我读过的关于那个时期最近的一本书是温斯顿·S·丘吉尔写的《风云紧急》(算不上最中立的观察者,但读起来极具吸引力)。

    Unfortunately not; the most recent book I read on the period was Gathering Storm, by W. S. Churchill (not the most unbiased observer, but very engaging reading).

  • ……被任命。如果你在这一行混得够久,就会见过很多项目和公司因为在本来可以扭转局面的时刻没有果断采取行动而走向毁灭(或者读读比如丘吉尔的《风云紧急》,抑或是任何简述二战本可以通过阻止德国重整军备来轻易避免的版本)。极大概率这又会是其中一个例子。

    …appointed. If you've been in this game long enough you've seen projects and companies destroyed by a failure to take decisive action when it could have made a difference (or read, for example, Churchill's The Gathering Storm, or any shorter version of how WWII could have been so easily averted by preventing German rearmament). The odds are pretty high this is going to be another example of that.

  • ……重读(以及反复阅读)“经典著作”一直以来都是一种方法,而且对我很有用。重点在于“重读”,永不停止学习,比如我大概是第三次刷丘吉尔写一战后时期的《风云紧急》了,全书以他在纳粹闪电战席卷低地国家和法国之际被任命为首相结束。第一遍是在 80 年代读的,第二遍记不清了,现在我正在……

    …Reading (and rereading) "the classics" has long been a method for that, and one that works for me. Emphasis on the re-reading, never stop learning, e.g. I'm on perhaps my 3rd pass of Churchill's The Gathering Storm, about the post-WWI period, it ends with him being appointed Prime Minister as the Nazi blitzkrieg falls upon the Low countries and France. First pass was in the '80s, 2nd I can't remember, and now I'm…

  • 读读《风云紧急》吧,看看我们在出兵前(但已经在 9·11 之后)主张推翻萨达姆的论调。理由有一大堆,我在这里就不展开了。毫无疑问,9·11 是国内政治的转折点……

    Read "The Gathering Storm" for an argument to topple Saddam made before we went in (but post 9-11) There is a long list of reasons which I won't go into here. 9-11 was the tipping point in terms of domestic politics, no doubt.…

  • ……并不是说美国的政策对美国自身不合理,只是说二战并不能明确证明民主体制和自由市场在打仗方面的潜在优势。具体到民主这一点上,在《风云紧急》中,丘吉尔几乎把二战的爆发归咎于在民主制度下制定合理外交政策的固有难度(既有一战结束时粗制滥造的和约问题,……

    …US policy wasn't sensible for the US, just that WWII is not a clear testament to the latent strengths of democracies and free markets at waging war. And on the point of democracy specifically, in "The Gathering Storm," Churchill nearly pins the breakout of WWII on the inherent difficulty of conducting sensible foreign policy under democracy (both in the case of the badly designed peace treaties at the end of WWI,…
