摘要:
In this book, New Yorker columnist Surowiecki explores a deceptively simple idea that has profound implications: large groups of people are smarter than an elite few, no matter how brilliant--better at solving problems, fostering innovation, coming to wise decisions, even predicting the future. This seemingly counterintuitive notion has major ramifications for how businesses operate, how knowledge is advanced, how economies are (or should be) organized and how we live our daily lives. With seemingly boundless erudition and in clear, entertaining prose, Surowiecki ranges across fields as diverse as popular culture, psychology, ant biology, economic behaviorism, artificial intelligence, military history and political theory to show just how this principle operates in the real world.--From publisher description.

It goes against what we have been taught and against even our sense of individualism, I suppose, to admit that "the many are smarter than the few," as James Surowiecki contends. Nevertheless, the author writes well and entertainingly; any reader will be tempted by the interesting themes and varied anecdotes. More importantly, this small book forces us to seriously reconsider how our fates and lives are shaped by large groups of people rather than by a few enlightened individuals. In any case, the "jury" is still out, but our present fascination with wikis may prove more than just a passing fad.
