Book review. Wisdom.

Before reading, I knew almost nothing about the book. It was very interesting.

When We Cease to Understand the World | Wit Whipyo

9 Points or ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ☆

The stories of intelligent scientists inventing theories that are important to the world - Fritz Haber, Werner Heisenberg, Airvine Schrerdinger, and Albert Einstein, whose theories lead to tragedy or destruction - for example, Fritz Haber, a Yreman chemist, developed the synthesis of ammonia, an important raw material in fertilizer, but he also developed and created toxins in the world wars, and something unknown, like Albert Einstein, who invented theories that led to the development of nuclear weapons.

Before reading it, it was just about science and thought it was general fiction, but it was really historical fiction or semi-nonfiction, which, based on truth, made the story very real, really real, like reading the history of the foregoing theory or scientist.

I didn't quite understand what to convey, but after reading chapter one for a while and knowing what to talk about, it was very interesting to me who liked science but didn't read it very much. It was quite fun to read the world. I hardly knew anyone the book was talking about except Albert Einstein. It was amazing.

All the things that people write are interesting, except chapter 4. I think it's a little long, and I don't really understand it. It's better to cut it into short and add something else. But overall, it's more enjoyable, not boring, very addictive, short, concise, easy to read, easy to understand. There are only a few points that I don't understand, and I don't want to understand, because it's pretty deep. But what the author will convey, I think, is the result of a theory or a chemist invented. It makes me understand the world more or useful to the world, but it's also a penalty because it's Leading to tragedy or destruction.

Overall, I like it very much. It's also my personal interest. Read and gain knowledge, open the world a lot, and get a point or something to find. Anyone who likes science should not miss it.

... Read moreขอรีวิวเพิ่มเติมแบบสรุปให้คนกำลังลังเลหน่อยนะครับ เผื่อใครเห็นชื่อ “ปัญญาวิปโยค (When We Cease to Understand the World)” แล้วไม่แน่ใจว่ามันเป็นนิยาย วิทย์จ๋า ๆ หรืออ่านยากไหม อย่างแรกที่รู้สึกชัดมากคือ “บรรยากาศ” ของเล่มนี้มันไม่เหมือนนิยายทั่วไป มันออกแนวเล่าเรื่องจริงปนแต่ง (นิยายเชิงประวัติศาสตร์/กึ่งสารคดี) คืออ่านแล้วเหมือนผู้เขียนหยิบชีวประวัติ เหตุการณ์ทางวิทยาศาสตร์ และผลกระทบทางประวัติศาสตร์มาร้อยเรียงเป็นเรื่องเล่าให้เราเห็นด้านมืดของความอัจฉริยะ บางตอนให้อารมณ์เหมือนกำลังอ่านสารคดี แต่ภาษามีความเป็นวรรณกรรม ทำให้ “น่ากลัวแบบสวยงาม” นิด ๆ ประเด็นที่เล่มนี้ทำได้ดีสำหรับผมคือการชวนมองว่า การค้นพบทางวิทยาศาสตร์มันไม่ได้มีแค่ด้านดี เช่นเคสฟริทซ์ ฮาเบอร์ที่เกี่ยวกับการสังเคราะห์แอมโมเนีย—ฟังดูเป็นเรื่องของปุ๋ยและความก้าวหน้าทางเกษตร แต่ในอีกด้านก็เชื่อมไปถึงสงครามและสารพิษ หรือชื่ออย่างไอน์สไตน์ที่เราคุ้นว่าเป็นอัจฉริยะระดับโลก แต่เงาของทฤษฎีบางอย่างก็ถูกลากไปสู่การพัฒนาอาวุธนิวเคลียร์ ประเด็นแบบนี้อ่านแล้วมันค้างในหัวมาก ถ้าถามว่าเหมาะกับใคร ผมว่าเหมาะกับคนที่ชอบอ่านอะไร “จริงจังแต่ไม่เป็นตำรา” โดยเฉพาะสายวิทยาศาสตร์ ประวัติศาสตร์ หรือคนที่ชอบเรื่องนักวิทยาศาสตร์และผลกระทบของการค้นพบต่อโลก แต่ถ้าใครอยากได้นิยายพล็อตชัด ตัวละครพัฒนาแบบนิยายเต็ม ๆ อาจจะต้องปรับความคาดหวัง เพราะเล่มนี้เหมือนเป็นชุดเรื่องเล่าที่โยงธีมเดียวกันมากกว่า อีกอย่างที่อยากบอกสำหรับคนจะเริ่มอ่าน: ถ้าช่วงแรกอ่านแล้วงงนิดหน่อยเป็นเรื่องปกติครับ เพราะมันไม่ได้ปูพื้นแบบนิยายตลาด แต่พอเริ่มจับได้ว่าแต่ละบทกำลังพาเราไปดู “จุดแตกหัก” ของความคิดและความทะเยอทะยาน มันจะติดมือมาก เนื้อหาค่อนข้างสั้น กระชับ อ่านไว และยิ่งถ้าอ่านแล้วไปเสิร์ชต่อว่าแต่ละคนคือใคร (ฮาเบอร์ ไฮเซินแบร์ค ชเรอดิงเงอร์ ฯลฯ) จะสนุกขึ้นอีกระดับ สรุปแบบขอรีวิวสั้น ๆ: เล่มนี้ให้ทั้งความรู้และความรู้สึก—อ่านเพลิน เปิดโลก และชวนคิดว่าความเข้าใจโลกที่ลึกขึ้น บางครั้งก็แลกมาด้วยราคาที่หนักมาก
