    十个大问题的简易回答。大部分和霍金以往的作品纪录片电影有重叠,可以当霍金个人人生总结看。对上帝存在这种问题的思考也没有逃出奥卡姆剃刀的范畴,其他也多泛泛而谈。不过书里一些小讽刺比较有趣。霍金在历经了世界发展后,也疑惑当今世界是怎么了,英国脱欧、特朗普上台、科研削减。但是他还是保持了作为科学主义者的乐观,所以在弥留之际依然宣传着科学文化(这或许是他对世界最大的贡献),写出此书,继续呼吁培养公民的基本科学素养。当然他也警惕着人工智能被滥用、地球毁灭这些大问题。霍金同样看好脑机接口的前景,另外基于复杂性,霍金对未来持进步观,认为科学发展不会停滞或完成。霍金带着未获诺贝尔奖的遗憾,对科技的迷恋完成了他的遗作。

    总结下霍金此书中与超人类主义相关的个人观点:自然进化太慢,是时候搞搞基因编辑了,碳基生命太脆弱,或许人工智能才是最后的赢家。

    就书本身来说,不错。要把专业领域内的事情讲清楚又要避免太多“令外行走神的”细节确实不是一件容易的事。书写得不错,趣味好读,直白,有关怀。就我本身的进程来说,仅是想要纪念一下在这段时间里看到的本专业之光(cut down focus range),人生主旨之光,以及,逐渐通过行动,建立对自己行事的信任。解开了青少年来的本质死结。好像也是一个自然而然的过程。不是说不愉快;)
