我們之中許多人都信奉進步而遭進步蒙蔽,看不出道靈所闡明的趨緩現況。身為真正知識分子的他向讀者證明,如果我們人類存續下去,生活就會更加緩慢──而且有可能會更好。
──保羅‧查特頓(Paul Chatterton),《永續城市解密:真正改變之宣言》(Unlocking Sustainable Cities: A Manifesto for Real Change)作者
這本書是以視覺方式了解人類歷史和社會變遷的新標準。道靈利用精美繪圖,帶來了觀察長期社會變遷、成長極限以及貧富不均擴大現象的宏闊觀點,並強調了適應這種趨緩的重要性。
──中谷友樹,《日本健康不平等分布圖冊》(The Atlas of Health Inequalities in Japan)作者
這本引人入勝的書,幾乎是一定會讓你原本對於「世界上過去發生了什麼」以及「過去的世界怎麼了」的想法改觀,也想必會讓你重新思考我們可能會邁向何方。
──茱麗葉.包威爾(Juliette Powell),《3300萬人的聊天室:如何利用社群網站創造十倍、百倍業績?》(33 Million People in the Room)作者
當世界轉型成人口先穩定後減少的新「常態」、成長本身速度放慢,而道靈以他出色的文筆去探索這帶來的巨大挑戰時,他的樂觀有著感染力。
──維琪‧普萊斯(Vicky Pryce),《女性vs資本主義》(Women vs Capitalism)作者
這本提出挑戰又發人深省的書,不管在哪裡發現了成長減速的證據,就會撒開大網廣泛搜羅。快速成長的歌舞昇平年代已是過往雲煙,在人口和預期壽命方面最為顯著,但在經濟生活水準方面也能看出。
──羅伯特‧詹姆斯‧戈登(Robert J. Gordon),《美國成長之興衰》(The Rise and Fall of American Growth)作者
自從馬爾薩斯以來,有關未來的說法都是在描述快速成長。也就是那一點讓道靈的《大減速》如此耳目一新。這本書挑戰我們的未來眼光,以及我們對「改變之本質」的基本假設。
──方洙正(Alex Soojung-Kim Pang),《如何縮時工作:一週上班四天,或者一天上班六小時,用更少的時間,做更多的工作,而且做得更好》(Shorter: Work Better, Smarter, and Less—Here’s How)作者
