This chapter is an outline for now. The book is written in public: the full text, stories and cases will be added to this page, at this same address.
Humans did not build pyramids, railways, skyscrapers and rockets because our muscles kept getting stronger. We built them because we kept getting better at amplifying our strength: tools, machines, electricity, organisation, computers and now AI.
Each leap in civilisation was, at bottom, the discovery of a new lever. This chapter widens leverage from a physics idea into the operating logic of human progress.
人类为什么能建金字塔、铁路、摩天大楼,最后甚至把火箭送上太空?
不是因为人的肌肉越来越强。而是因为我们越来越擅长放大自己的力量。
每一次文明的跃迁,本质上都是找到了一种新的杠杆。
这一章第一次把“杠杆”从一个物理概念,扩展成人类文明的底层逻辑。
