Humanish: How Anthropomorphism Makes Us Smart, Weird and Delusional

【2025 誠品選書】本月外文推薦!參展書79折起(特價品恕不再折)《擬人化怪癖:為什麼我們總把世界想成人?——讓我們變聰明、變怪的本能驅力!》《如果尼采是獨角鯨》作者新作,幽默又犀利的筆調,探究人類天生的「擬人化」偏誤你是否曾看著你的貓,懷疑牠正在密謀什麼?或路過一台車,只因為車燈形狀,就覺得它「友善」、「驚訝」甚至「憤怒」? 這就是「擬人化」——人類天生會把動物、自然現象,甚至無生命物體想成人的奇妙傾向。而且,這份偏好遠比你想像的更離奇。如今甚至出現專門替被結紮的狗狗做「外觀補償」的高額產業;而海豚研究者賈斯汀・葛雷格(Justin Gregg)也經常收到孕婦詢問海豚是否能擔任接生員(答案是:絕對不行!)。在《Humanish》中,葛雷格帶領讀者深入探究這份怪誕而可愛的心理偏誤如何形塑我們理解世界的方式。 從動畫電影裡會說話的動物角色,到我們如何與即將填滿生活的機器人互動,他以幽默、犀利又富含洞察的筆調,揭露擬人化帶給人類的創意、盲點與幻想。這是一趟爆笑又啟發性的旅程,透過科學研究與日常荒謬案例,他揭示這種心理如何讓我們更聰明、更怪,也更容易被自己騙。
