當人類不再沉思，我們又要如何活著AI 世代最值得讀的一部經典在美麗新世界裡，大眾享樂與狂歡，無需憂慮煩惱。當階級無從更改，喜好與心理皆受制約操控，我們迎來的，將會是怎麼樣的社會？赫胥黎（Aldous Huxley）1932年發表的反烏托邦小說，預示了福特紀元632年，由科技與享樂控制的「文明社會」。科學使人類遠離疾病、貧窮甚至蚊害，卻也成為控制多數人的利器。當來到21 世紀，AI 人工智慧發展迅速，我們未來會走向赫胥黎的 Brave New World，還是歐威爾的 1984，或是如今科技巨頭嚮往的新文明？【在世界國，穩定是最高原則】「群體、身分、穩定」是世界國（World State）的格言。世界國透過人工繁殖大批育成人類，預先決定其高低階級及未來職業，以生理差異維持穩定。低階層因發育時控制缺氧身形矮小，智力受限，終生只能做勞力活；高階級身形高大，聰明絕頂，從事專業管理職位。人的出生不再出於自然，而是在中央育成暨制約中心裡大量製造；個體的未來境遇與生命歷程，在體制之中早有定數，無法打破。【幸福，是徹底釋放達成管理】 在這個社會，傳統家庭溫暖不再，父母、婚姻與胎生視為令人反胃的詞彙。人類自試管育成後，幼年起於睡眠中接受「道德」教育，耳邊不斷播送著「無人不幸福」等格言。為了達成幸福，人類本能不受一絲壓抑，而是徹底享樂：性不再限於閨房，而是集體的狂歡；迷幻藥物「梭麻」（soma）每日配給。當一切慾望都能立即滿足，人類就不再渴求、不再改變，社會得以恆久穩定。【痛苦，證明人類之所以為人】身為社會整體一份子，受制約的人深信遇到不順心的事，吃點梭麻就能解決；若是看到「保留區」裡存有婚姻、宗教信仰的野蠻人，更是要多吃幾錠。世界國致力於消除人類的痛苦，使大多數人趨於平庸，卻無法讓天生異於常人的個體融入其中，無論是身形較小而憤世的伯納德，智力遠超旁人的赫姆霍茲，還是喜愛莎士比亞的野蠻人約翰，流放的命運已然注定。當人類安於平穩、不再受渴求所苦，也就不再創造不朽；在新世紀裡，莎士比亞不再誕生。在美麗新世界裡，人們是這樣的生活的：● 享樂主義：人受制約得密集接觸性、藥物等感官刺激，遠離獨處沉思，以消除不合群的思想。● 實用至上：抽象有罪，實用最重要！抽象知識只要懂一些，懂太多有礙成為和諧社會一份子。● 消費導向：鼓勵消費，物品壞了就換新；低階層更制約排斥自然美景，卻要愛昂貴的鄉村運動。●

Meet the fire-breathing beasts of mythology in this beautifully illustrated book brimming with scaled behemoths.Lurking in every corner of the Earth, from the deepest depths of the oceans, to the tips of the tallest mountains, even tucked beneath the very ground that you tread on, dragons watch and wait. They take many forms – sea monsters, serpents, wild cats, eagles, and they represent many different things; Gods to be revered, evil kings to be feared, wise friends and fierce foes. So, when you accidentally step on a sinewy vine and it whips out from under your feet, or invisible forces gently fan warm air across your face, or the acrid smell of cinders pokes at the back of your throat, how will you know whether to stand and wonder, or run and hide?Dragons have breathed fire into our minds since we could first imagine, but why do they exist in stories from every land in the world? Come in and explore Dragon World. Look into their lairs while they make shape-shifting mischief, playing

《世說新語》是一部以筆記形式寫成的志人小說，記錄東漢末年至東晉大約二百年間名士的言行軼事。它集魏晉志人文學之大成，文字簡潔含蓄，雋永傳神，一代人物，百年風尚，無不歷歷在目，故能獨領風騷，在中國文學史上大放異彩。不過因其言微而旨遠之特性，往往只呈顯鳳毛麟爪、亮麗奪目之片段，使讀者即使通其訓詁，依然難解其義何在。故本書在詳明的「注釋」、「語譯」之外，每則並有「析評」，講明其時空背景和析賞重點，幫助讀者深入閱讀。想要探討魏晉風流，或品賞中國文學之美，本書是您的最佳選擇。
