So I'm reading Michael Hart's famous book "The 100", a ranking of the 100 most influential people in history. His top 10:

我正在看邁克爾·哈特的著名著作《人類史上最有影響的百位人物排名》,他排的前十名是:

1 Muhammad 2 Isaac Newton 3 Jesus 4 Buddha 5 Confucius 6 St Paul 7 Tsai Lun 8 Gutenberg 9 Columbus 10 Einstein

1、穆罕默德 2、艾薩克·牛頓 3、耶穌 4、佛祖 5、孔子 6、圣保羅 7、蔡倫 8、古騰堡 9、哥倫布 10、愛(ài)因斯坦

I dont have much issue with his top 10, maybe a few adjustments. But the book overall is ridiculous.

我對(duì)他排的前10名沒(méi)什么意見(jiàn),最多是一些位置調(diào)整。但這本書在總體上是荒謬的。

He included Beethoven - but left out Brahamagupta, who was the first person to use 0 as a mathematical concept, whose works spread to the Arabs and the rest of the world, the basis of modern mathematics.

作者納入了貝多芬,卻沒(méi)有提到Brahamagupta,他是第一個(gè)將0作為數(shù)學(xué)概念的人,他的作品傳播到阿拉伯和世界各地,這是現(xiàn)代數(shù)學(xué)的基礎(chǔ)。

He puts Shakespeare in the book (and above Napoleon) but leaves out Muhammad Atalla, who invented the Mosfet , the basis of modern electronics.

作者納入了莎士比亞(排名比拿破侖要前),卻沒(méi)有提到穆罕默德·阿塔拉,他發(fā)明了MOSFET【金屬-氧化物半導(dǎo)體場(chǎng)效應(yīng)晶體管】,這是現(xiàn)代電子技術(shù)的基礎(chǔ)。

He put Michaelangelo in the book, but left out Fritz Harber, without whose fermentation process the world's population would have stayed at 2 billion.

作者納入了米開(kāi)朗基洛,卻沒(méi)有提到弗里茨·哈伯【德國(guó)物理化學(xué)家、合成氨的發(fā)明者】,沒(méi)有他的發(fā)酵工藝,世界人口最多保持在20億。

He also could not find a place for Gavrilo Princip - the guy who turned the world upside down, or Tim Berners Lee, though when he made the book theres no way he could have seen the impact of the WWW and a modern printing press.

作者也沒(méi)有給加夫里洛·普林西普【薩拉熱窩事件的刺客】留位置,這家伙把世界都弄翻了。以及蒂姆·伯納斯·李【萬(wàn)維網(wǎng)的發(fā)明者】,雖然當(dāng)作者寫這本書時(shí),他無(wú)法預(yù)見(jiàn)萬(wàn)維網(wǎng)和現(xiàn)代印刷機(jī)的影響。

My top 10. This most likely reflects my own ignorance of other people than anything else. But I'll give my Number 1 and then in no particular order:

我自己排了前10名。這很可能反映了我自己的無(wú)知,但我會(huì)排出第一名,剩下的排名不分先后。

1 Muhammad Gavrilo Princip Napoleon Tsai Lun BrahmaGupta Columbus Jesus Einstein Fritz Harber Tim Berners Lee

1、穆罕默德 加夫里洛·普林西普 拿破侖 蔡倫 BrahmaGupta 哥倫布 耶穌 愛(ài)因斯坦 弗里茨·哈伯 蒂姆·伯納斯·李

I put Muhammad as number 1 for the same reason as Hart. He had the most impact in the most number of fields than anyone else in history

我把穆罕默德排到第一,理由和作者一樣。他在眾多領(lǐng)域的影響力超過(guò)了歷史上所有人。

1 He was a law giver (Shariah law being 1 of the worlds 3 major legal systems with civil and common law) 2 He was a founder of a major religion (islam) 3 He had economic principles (shariah banking is a £2 trillion industry) 4 He was a successful military commander that conquered a large area (Arabia). The military historian Richard Gabriel makes this point- hes the only military commander people are still dying for. Noone is dying for Alexander the Great etc.

1、他是一部法律的奠基者(伊斯蘭教法是世界三大法系之一,擁有民法和普通法)
2、他是一個(gè)主要宗教(伊斯蘭教)的創(chuàng)始人
3、他有經(jīng)濟(jì)理念(伊斯蘭銀行是一個(gè)2萬(wàn)億英鎊的產(chǎn)業(yè))
4、他是一位成功的軍事指揮官,征服了一大片地區(qū)(阿拉伯)。軍事歷史學(xué)家理查德·加布里埃爾指出:他是唯一一個(gè)人們至今仍為之而死的軍事指揮官。如今沒(méi)人會(huì)為亞歷山大大帝而死了。

Ghengis Khan was 1 and 2, Karl Marx was 3, Napoleon was 1 and 2, Jesus was 2, Ceasar was 4,1 and 3 (his law on interest not exceeding the original amount which is still used) . Einstein and other inventors impacted the world in a way Muhammad never did (science), but even then, they're still out outumbered 4-1.

成吉思汗符合第1和第2點(diǎn),卡爾·馬克思符合第3點(diǎn),拿破侖符合第1和第2點(diǎn),耶穌符合第2點(diǎn),愷撒符合第1、3、4點(diǎn)(他的利息法規(guī)定不超過(guò)原始金額,目前仍在使用)。愛(ài)因斯坦和其他發(fā)明家以一種穆罕默德從未做過(guò)的方式(科學(xué))影響世界,但即便如此,他們?nèi)匀灰?比1的劣勢(shì)落后。

I'm not t saying this is definitive, but does anyone else have their own top 10?

我并不是說(shuō)這是絕對(duì)的,各位有自己的前十名嗎?
