Human History, by Yuval Hrari
This book explores how humans
transformed from a very ordinary species
to the dominant species of the planet
and how this process has had a profound impact
on individual life.
Deep down in my heart,
although this book is about history
from a grand perspective,
it is actually written for
every ordinary person
or books that are not for the rich and powerful.
But the authors want to write but can't.
Just like many books about history,
many authors can't write what they want to write,
they can only write it in a hidden way.
In the first half of this video,
I will share with you what the author,
Yuval Harari, wants to tell us.
In the second half, I want to speculate
about the authors who didn't write in the book
but it is very, very important to each of us.
First, cognitive revolution.
language and imagination.
As an individual,
no matter how powerful you are,
you can't change anything.
But if you organize a group of people,
you can do great things.
For example, the wolf pack in the nature world
can hunt large prey.
The wolf pack needs to be organized.
So does the bee.
For us,
we can do great things if we organize.
But there is no language between animals,
or their language system is relatively simple.
So, the wolf pack has a scale,
like a hundred wolves,
it has reached its limit.
You can't organize thousands or tens of thousands of wolves.
If the wolf pack can be organized to this scale,
I think people may not live to this day.
So, other species are the same.
But our people can organize thousands of people,
tens of thousands of people,
even hundreds of millions of people.
What can organize such a huge human and physical body?
What is needed is the story and people's imagination.
Actually, these myths, legends, religions, and laws are all just...

人类简史作者尤瓦尔·赫拉里
这本书探讨的是人类如何从一个很普通的物种
变成今天地球的主宰
并且在这个过程中对个体生活的深远的影响
我内心深处深深的感觉这本书
虽然讲的是历史
是从宏观的大的角度来讲
但实际上是写给我们每一个普通的老百姓的
或者说是挣扎在底层的老百姓的非权贵阶层的书
但是作者又想写却不能写
就像很多写历史的书一样
好多作者想写东西是不能写的
只能隐晦的写出来
在这个视频的上半部分
我将跟大家分享一下
作者尤尔赫拉利他想告诉我们的内容
那么下半部分我想去揣测一下
作者没有写在书里面的
但是对我们每个人都非常重要的启发
第一点
认知革命
语言与想象的力量
其实作为一个个体来讲的话
不管你有多大的力量能耐
你都改变不了什么
但是如果把一群人组织起来
就能办大事了
比如自然界中的狼群
它就可以捕猎很大的猎物
那么狼群需要组织
蜜蜂也是
那么对我们人来说组织起来
我们就能办大事
但是动物之间没有语言
或者说它们的语言系统比较简单
所以说狼群可能
它有一个规模像可能一百来只狼它就已经到达一个极限了
你不能把上千只上万只狼组织起来
如果狼群要是能组织成这个规模
我觉得人可能也活不到今天
那么其他物种同理
但是我们的人就能组织起几千人
上万人 十万人
甚至几百万上亿人
能组织起这么庞大的人力物力到底需要什么
需要的是故事和人们的想象
其实像这些神话传说
宗教法律
其实都是
那么只有这些虚构的故事才能让大规模的组织成为可能构建出一个复杂的社会的网络
