Language existed long before writing, emerging probably simultaneously with sapience, abstract thought and the Genus Homo. In my opinion, the signature event that separated the emergence of palaeohumans from their anthropoid progenitors was not tool-making but a rudimentary oral communication that replaced the hoots and gestures still used by lower primates.
The transfer of more complex information, ideas and concepts from one individual to another, or to a group, was the single most advantageous evolutionary adaptation for species preservation.
As long ago as 25,000-30,000 years BP, humans were painting pictures on cave walls.
Written language was the product of an agrarian society.
For the next step toward the development of an alphabet, we must go to Egypt where picture writing had developed sometime near the end of the 4th millennium BC.
These ponderings attempt to let themselves be appropriated by the event. (Beiträge zur Philosophie (Vom Ereignis), Martin Heidegger, 1936–38/1989)

Since the Late Pleistocene Humans Were Already Radically Transforming the Earth (Jackson Landers, June 7, 2016)
http://www.smithsonianmag.com/smithsonian-institution/new-research-shows-late-pleistocene-humans-transforming-habitats-180959324/?no-ist
According to the paper, those four major periods of habitat transformations by humans include the Late Pleistocene dispersal of humans nearly everywhere around the globe; the spread of agriculture beginning in the Early Holocene; the colonization of the world’s islands; and the expansion of urbanization and trade beginning in the Bronze Age.

Three-age system
The three-age system in archaeology and physical anthropology is the periodization of human prehistory and history into three consecutive time periods, named for their respective tool-making technologies:
- The Stone Age: The period lasted roughly 3.4 million years, and ended between 8700 BCE (or BC) and 2000 BCE with the advent of metalworking.
- The Bronze Age
- The Iron Age: The start of the Iron Age proper is considered by many to fall between around 1200 BCE to 600 BCE, depending on the region. In most parts of the world, its end is defined by the widespread adoption of writing, and therefore marks the transition from prehistory to history. (wikipedia)

When Did the Anthropocene Begin…and Why Does It Matter? (Ian Angus, Sep, 2015)
http://monthlyreview.org/2015/09/01/when-did-the-anthropocene-beginand-why-does-it-matter/
The first Early Anthropocene proposal was advanced by U.S. geologist William Ruddiman, who argues that the Anthropocene started when humans began large-scale agriculture in various parts of the world between eight and five thousand years ago. Those activities, he believes, produced carbon dioxide and methane emissions that raised global temperatures just enough to prevent a return to an Ice Age.9
Other Early Anthropocene arguments suggest dating the Anthropocene from the first large-scale landscape modifications by humans, from the extinction of many large mammals in the late Pleistocene, from the formation of anthropogenic soils in Europe, or from the European invasions of the Americas in the 1500s. Some archeologists propose to extend the beginning of the Anthropocene back to the earliest surviving traces of human activity, which would take in much of the Pleistocene, and others have suggested that the entire Holocene should simply be renamed Anthropocene, since it is the period when settled human civilizations first developed.
This outpouring of proposals reflects humanity’s long and complex relationships with the earth’s ecosystems—many of the proposed beginnings are significant turning points in those relationships, and deserve careful study. (ibid)

Network
1. Network Science, by Albert-László Barabás, Cambridge University Press, Aug 5, 2016
Networks are everywhere, from the Internet, to social networks, and the genetic networks that determine our biological existence. Illustrated throughout in full colour, this pioneering textbook, spanning a wide range of topics from physics to computer science, engineering, economics and the social sciences, introduces network science to an interdisciplinary audience. From the origins of the six degrees of separation to explaining why networks are robust to random failures, the author explores how viruses like Ebola and H1N1 spread, and why it is that our friends have more friends than we do. Using numerous real-world examples, this innovatively designed text includes clear delineation between undergraduate and graduate level material. The mathematical formulas and derivations are included within Advanced Topics sections, enabling use at a range of levels. Extensive online resources, including films and software for network analysis, make this a multifaceted companion for anyone with an interest in network science. (amazon)
2. Network Medicine: Complex Systems in Human Disease and Therapeutics, ed. by Joseph Loscalzo, Albert-László Barabási, et al., Harvard University Press, Feb 1, 2017
Big data, genomics, and quantitative approaches to network-based analysis are combining to advance the frontiers of medicine as never before. Network Medicine introduces this rapidly evolving field of medical research, which promises to revolutionize the diagnosis and treatment of human diseases. With contributions from leading experts that highlight the necessity of a team-based approach in network medicine, this definitive volume provides readers with a state-of-the-art synthesis of the progress being made and the challenges that remain.
Medical researchers have long sought to identify single molecular defects that cause diseases, with the goal of developing silver-bullet therapies to treat them. But this paradigm overlooks the inherent complexity of human diseases and has often led to treatments that are inadequate or fraught with adverse side effects. Rather than trying to force disease pathogenesis into a reductionist model, network medicine embraces the complexity of multiple influences on disease and relies on many different types of networks: from the cellular-molecular level of protein-protein interactions to correlational studies of gene expression in biological samples. The authors offer a systematic approach to understanding complex diseases while explaining network medicine’s unique features, including the application of modern genomics technologies, biostatistics and bioinformatics, and dynamic systems analysis of complex molecular networks in an integrative context.
By developing techniques and technologies that comprehensively assess genetic variation, cellular metabolism, and protein function, network medicine is opening up new vistas for uncovering causes and identifying cures of disease. (amazon)
3.Linked: The New Science Of Networks Science Of Networks, by Albert-laszlo Barabasi, Jennifer Frangos, Perseus Books Group, 2002
In the 1980's, James Gleick's Chaos introduced the world to complexity. Now, Albert-László Barabási's Linked reveals the next major scientific leap: the study of networks. We've long suspected that we live in a small world, where everything is connected to everything else. Indeed, networks are pervasive--from the human brain to the Internet to the economy to our group of friends. These linkages, it turns out, aren't random. All networks, to the great surprise of scientists, have an underlying order and follow simple laws. Understanding the structure and behavior of these networks will help us do some amazing things, from designing the optimal organization of a firm to stopping a disease outbreak before it spreads catastrophically.In Linked, Barabási, a physicist whose work has revolutionized the study of networks, traces the development of this rapidly unfolding science and introduces us to the scientists carrying out this pioneering work. These "new cartographers" are mapping networks in a wide range of scientific disciplines, proving that social networks, corporations, and cells are more similar than they are different, and providing important new insights into the interconnected world around us. This knowledge, says Barabási, can shed light on the robustness of the Internet, the spread of fads and viruses, even the future of democracy. Engaging and authoritative, Linked provides an exciting preview of the next century in science, guaranteed to be transformed by these amazing discoveries.From Linked:This book has a simple message: think networks. It is about how networks emerge, what they look like, and how they evolve. It aims to develop a web-based view of nature, society, and technology, providing a unified framework to better understand issues ranging from the vulnerability of the Internet to the spread of diseases. Networks are present everywhere. All we need is an eye for them...We will see the challenges doctors face when they attempt to cure a disease by focusing on a single molecule or gene, disregarding the complex interconnected nature of the living matter. We will see that hackers are not alone in attacking networks: we all play Goliath, firing shots at a fragile ecological network that, without further support, could soon replicate our worst nightmares by turning us into an isolated group of species...Linked is meant to be an eye-opening trip that challenges you to walk across disciplines by stepping out of the box of reductionism. It is an invitation to explore link by link the next scientific revolution: the new science of networks. (amazon) (kindle 2016-9-21)

《絕命詩》
身在陽間有散場,
死歸地府又何妨。
陽間地府俱相似,
只當飄流在異鄉。
《桃花庵歌》
桃花塢里桃花庵,桃花庵下桃花仙。
酒醒只在花前坐,酒醉還來花下眠。
半醒半醉日復日,花落花開年復年。
但願老死花酒間,不願鞠躬車馬前。
車塵馬足富者趣,酒盞花枝貧者緣。
若將富貴比貧賤,一在平地一在天。
若將貧賤比車馬,他得驅馳我得閑。
別人笑我太瘋癲,我笑他人看不穿。
不見五陵豪傑墓,無花無酒鋤作田。
《把酒對月歌》
李白前時原有月,惟有李白詩能說。
李白如今已仙去,月在青天幾圓缺?
今人猶歌李白詩,明月還如李白時。
我學李白對明月,白與明月安能知!
李白能詩復能酒,我今百杯復千首。
我愧雖無李白才,料應月不嫌我丑。
我也不登天子船,我也不上長安眠。
姑蘇城外一茅屋,萬樹桃花月滿天。

On Buddhism (西谷 啓治 Keiji Nishitani, 1900-1990) (2006)
Six lectures by eminent Buddhist thinker Keiji Nishitani reflecting on Buddhism for the modern world.
On Buddhism presents the first English-language translation of a series of lectures by Keiji Nishitani (1900–1990), a major Buddhist thinker and a key figure in the Kyoto School of Japanese philosophy.
Originally delivered in the early 1970s (1971-1974), these lectures focus on the transformation of culture in the modern age and the subsequent decline in the importance of the family and religion. Nishitani’s concern is that modernity, with its individualism, materialism, and contractual ethics, is an insufficient basis for human relationships. With deep insight into both Buddhism and Christianity, he explores such issues as the nature of genuine human existence, the major role of conscience in our advance to authenticity, and the needed transformation of religion. Nishitani criticizes contemporary Buddhism for being too esoteric and asks that it “come down from Mt. Hiei” to reestablish itself as a vital source of worthy ideals and to point toward a way of remaining human even in a modern and postmodern world. (amazon) (kindle 2016-9-16)

- 1995: Nobel Prize in Chemistry (with Dr. M. Molina and Dr. F. S. Rowland, U.S.A.)
In 2000, in IGBP Newsletter 41, Crutzen and Eugene F. Stoermer, to emphasize the central role of mankind in geology and ecology, proposed using the term anthropocene for the current geological epoch. In regard to its start, they said:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_J._CrutzenTo assign a more specific date to the onset of the "anthropocene" seems somewhat arbitrary, but we propose the latter part of the 18th century, although we are aware that alternative proposals can be made (some may even want to include the entire holocene). However, we choose this date because, during the past two centuries, the global effects of human activities have become clearly noticeable. This is the period when data retrieved from glacial ice cores show the beginning of a growth in the atmospheric concentrations of several "greenhouse gases", in particular CO2 and CH4. Such a starting date also coincides with James Watt's invention of the steam engine in 1784.

21. About Energy
fire --- probably more than 1.5 million years ago
agriculture --- began about ten thousand years ago (i.e. holocene)
watermill --- two thousand years ago
windmill --- one thousand years ago
the organic energy regime --- lasted until the 18th century
the fossil fuel energy regime
In late 18th-century England the harnessing of coal exploded the constraints of the organic
energy regime. With fossil fuels, humankind gained access to eons of frozen sunshine ---
maybe 500 million years' worth of prior photosynthesis.
By 1870 we used more fossil fuel energy each year than the annual global production from all
photosynthesis.
Our species has probably used more energy since 1920 than in all of prior human history.
In the half century before 1950, global energy use slightly more than doubled.
Then in the next half century, it quintupled from the 1950s level.
Since 1950 we have burned around 50 million to 150 million years' worth of it.
Coal outstripped biomass to become the world's primary fuel by about 1890.
King coal reigned for about 75 years, before ceding the throne to oil in about 1965.
King oil's reign, now 50 years in duration, will likely prove to be as brief as coal's, but that
reamins to be seen.
Global Commercial Energy Mix, 2013
Oil 33%
Coal 30%
Natural Gas 24%
Hydroelectric 7%
Nuclear 4%
In 1960, most of the world outside of Europe and North America still used little energy.
In the 50 years after 1965, China increased its energy use by 16 times, India by 11, Egypt by 10
or 11. Meanwhile US energy use rose by about 40%.
The US accounted for 1/3 of the world's energy consumption in 1965, but only 1/5 in 2009;
China accounted for only 5% in 1965, but 1/5 in 2009, and in 2010 surpassed the US to become
the world's largest energy user.
The creation and spread of fossil fuel society was the most environmentally consequential
development of modern times.
