What a book! Charles Darwin's theory of natural selection has been called "the best idea that anyone ever had", and I am tempted to agree. Darwin's great insight was that in the same way that humans breed plants and animals with certain characteristics, nature "breeds" itself, and creates variation. He notes that all creatures reproduce at a rate faster than the earth can support them, and so many of them must die. He realized that it is not random which individuals die and which ones live. Rather, those that are best fitted for their environment are most likely to survive. Over time, the attributes that allowed them to survive will be passed on throughout the population, and will supplant the old population. Darwin's realized that these small, gradual changes were strong enough to create all of the diversity around us, over time. He uses embryology, the fossil record, migration patterns, classification patterns, and the existence of rudimentary organs as evidence for his beautiful theory. Since then, we have found more and more evidence for the actuality of evolution as "the origin of species". I highly recommend this book. Some of it is fairly dense and repetitive, but it is wonderful. It provides a new way to see the world, and as Darwin says in his concluding paragraph: "There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved."

Người Đẹp Và Quái Vật (Song Ngữ) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

It's been almost 10 years since I've read this book, now. I still remember it being a solid 3 star title though. I didn't hate it, I didn't love it. Compared to the pile of crap that "T3: Rise of the Machines" turned out to be, this story fantastic. It works better on pretty much every level. Standing on its own as a sequel to the first two films, though, it falls a little short. It was definitely worth reading, but I never did get interested enough to ride out the rest of this follow up trilogy.

Not as good as book 1 (by any means), but still a fun read. I hear that book 3 is much better.

It is no longer possible for me to read P.G. Wodehouse without hearing Hugh Laurie's voice in my head, so it's not a big surprise that the influence runs very strongly the other way as well -- it's clearly not possible for Hugh Laurie to write without getting P.G. Wodehouse's voice all over the page. This is of course not necessarily a bad thing. I love Wodehouse. But the Wodehouse influence here is self-conscious -- there are clear overtones of "I am gunning for someone to say the words 'Bertie Wooster meets James Bond' on the book jacket." It is, in short, a little heavily influenced and a little insistent. Some of the jokes feel labored, not effortless and natural like good humor (including Wodehouse, of course). Laurie would have done well to apply a little Coco Chanel theory to the novel -- before you send it to press, take one thing off. Maybe one thing per chapter. Or one thing per paragraph. But, slightly winded jokes aside, the plot is actually a really decent thriller. Laurie deftly handles multiple double-crosses, an expose of the military-industrial complex, and a whole lot of violence. The main character should be flat and cliche -- the classic bad boy fantasy, charismatic roguish expert scrapper with a motorcycle, yawn -- but is actually appealing and human. I was happy to be in his head, and you can't say that for most characters of this type. The plot keeps you guessing (sometimes a little too much -- I read it in spurts on my commute, and kept having to flip back to remind myself who someone was and why I should be surprised that they'd done what they'd done). And the writing is for the most part sparkly and fun, only getting bogged down occasionally in an "I'm a reasonably talented first novelist but my editor is going to use an overly light hand because I'm a national treasure" kind of way. I really didn't expect to get into the story -- I expected to have a laugh and satisfy my curiosity about what Laurie is like as a writer. Instead I actually found myself carving out time in my day to spend with the book.

Better than book 2, still not as good as the first. However, it was entertaining, and suprised me in the end (which doesn't happen very often).

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Nguyễn Duy Chính

More of a picture book than anything, but still an elegant read/visual about the changing landscape of business and how we compute information. Pick it up at a bookstore and look through it - it's relatively short, each page mainly filled with pictures and diagrams - or borrow it from a friend.
