《熵:一种新的世界观》是一部震惊西方学术界的著作。尽管里夫金在书中表述的世界观总体上比较悲观,但其对当前的“技术崇拜”、“科学至上”现象却有很好的提醒作用。随着人类社会不断向前发展,人们在如何对待“科学主义”的问题上需要更加理性、更加辩证。同时,对作者的观点也需要“取其精华,去其糟粕”。 Entropy: A New World Outlook is a book that shocked the western academic community. Although Rifkin’s pessimistic view of the world in his book is generally pessimistic, it is a good reminder of the current phenomenon of “worship of technology” and “science first”. With the continuous development of human society, people need to be more rational and dialectical on how to treat “scientificism.” At the same time, the author’s point of view also needs “to take its essence, to its dregs.”
