Why Buddhism is True: The Science and Philosophy of Meditation and Enlightenment is a 2017 book by journalist and evolutionary psychologist Robert Wright. As of August 2017, the book had peaked at The New York Times No. 4 bestseller in hardcover nonfiction.
In Why Buddhism is True, Wright advocates a secular, Westernized form of Buddhism focusing on the practice of mindfulness meditation and stripped of supernatural beliefs such as reincarnation. He further argues that more widespread practice of meditation could lead to a more reflective and empathetic population and reduce political tribalism. In line with his background, Wright draws heavily on evolutionary biology and evolutionary psychology to defend the correctness of Buddhism's diagnosis of the causes of human suffering. He argues the modern psychological idea of the modularity of mind resonates with the Buddhist teaching of no-self (anatman).
##同样的实验结果,在我眼里只是一个有趣的心理学新发现,而在大神手里就成了重塑世界观的武器。
评分##所谓mindfulness里面,读过的最靠谱的书 也是到现在为止,和心理学相关的书最好的
评分##这本书去除了超自然现象,只留下哲学和冥想修行的方法论,只把佛陀当成一个觉悟了的哲学家,用现代科学的知识,尝试解释一些佛学的概念和观点。
评分##好看好看!在Psychology的理论部分和上半年读的Kurzban关于Modular Mind的书有很多重合,读起来毫不费力。Coursera上的Buddhism and Modern Psyhology一课也是本书很好的primer。
评分##看书名好像是佛教书籍,但其实是一本结合了佛学冥想和进化心理学的哲学书籍,完全剔除了宗教元素。作者的逻辑让人醍醐灌顶啊...
评分##说实话一本有点专业性的,英文读本对我而言有些太困难了,没法打分希望会有中文版
