It is a "little book for everyone" recommended by "People's Daily" and Yu Minhong to the public readers, especially the teenagers of the Internet generation. The Internet has completely changed the way we acquire knowledge. Facing the young people who love wisdom and seek truth and are free and sunny, well-known scholars use concise and elegant language to comprehensively and concisely explain the topics that each of us modern people really deserve to pay attention to - human beings, China, science, marine civilization... Interesting, informative, and exciting, this is a set of introductory books that set off a phenomenon-level trend of "minimalist reading": "Minimalist Human History" satisfies our curiosity about macro issues such as life, the earth, and the universe, and helps us better understand the development trajectory of this amazing species, human beings (modern Homo sapiens), over the past 100,000 years. "A Minimalist History of Science" allows us to understand mankind's 2,500 years of scientific exploration, understand what science is, and why science will dominate our future in the 21st century. "A Minimalist History of Marine Civilization" allows us to realize that navigation activities are as old as human history, and how navigation affected the course of world history after 1492 and established the power structure of "the West dominates the world."
