书籍简介:

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From the author of the international mega-bestseller The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck comes a counterintuitive guide to the problems of hope. We live in an interesting time. Materially, everything is the best it’s ever been—we are freer, healthier and wealthier than any people in human history. Yet, somehow everything seems to be irreparably and horribly f*cked—the planet is warming, governments are failing, economies are collapsing, and everyone is perpetually offended on Twitter. At this moment in history, when we have access to technology, education and communication our ancestors couldn’t even dream of, so many of us come back to an overriding feeling of hopelessness. What’s going on? If anyone can put a name to our current malaise and help fix it, it’s Mark Manson. In 2016, Manson published The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck, a book that brilliantly gave shape to the ever-present, low-level hum of anxiety that permeates modern living. He showed us that technology had made it too easy to care about the wrong things, that our culture had convinced us that the world owed us something when it didn’t—and worst of all, that our modern and maddening urge to always find happiness only served to make us unhappier. Instead, the “subtle art” of that title turned out to be a bold challenge: to choose your struggle; to narrow and focus and find the pain you want to sustain. The result was a book that became an international phenomenon, selling millions of copies worldwide while becoming the #1 bestseller in 13 different countries. Now, in Everthing Is F*cked, Manson turns his gaze from the inevitable flaws within each individual self to the endless calamities taking place in the world around us. Drawing from the pool of psychological research on these topics, as well as the timeless wisdom of philosophers such as Plato, Nietzsche, and Tom Waits, he dissects religion and politics and the uncomfortable ways they have come to resemble one another. He looks at our relationships with money, entertainment and the internet, and how too much of a good thing can psychologically eat us alive. He openly defies our definitions of faith, happiness, freedom—and even of hope itself. With his usual mix of erudition and where-the-f*ck-did-that-come-from humor, Manson takes us by the collar and challenges us to be more honest with ourselves and connected with the world in ways we probably haven’t considered before. It’s another counterintuitive romp through the pain in our hearts and the stress of our soul. One of the great modern writers has produced another book that will set the agenda for years to come.

书友短评:

@ itsareverie There is no hope but still you have to do your shirt. Escape, immediate pleasure and comfort? Not gonna work. Go pursue pain. And does that work? Nope. But that's what you should do that's what humanity is. @ 深情的艾老师 Pain is the universal constant of life. Pain is the source of all value.

  • 对平衡的渴望加强了我们的正义感,这早在很久以前就已经被写入了规则和法律中,例如巴比伦国王汉谟拉比的经典名言“以眼还眼,以牙还牙”,例如《圣经》中的黄金法则——“你希望别人怎么对待你,你就怎么对待别人”。在进化生物学中,这个被称为“互利主义”,[9]在博弈论中,这个被称为“以牙还牙”策略。[10]牛顿第一情感定律令我们产生道德感,奠定了我们对公平的看法。它是构成人类文明的基石,还是感性大脑的操作系统。当我们的理性大脑根据观察和逻辑创造事实与知识时,感性大脑则根据我们的痛苦经历创造价值观。令我们痛苦的经历在大脑中制造了道德鸿沟,而感性大脑认为这些经历是糟糕的。
