In this volume, first published in 1963, Cambridge lecturer R. G. Popperwell provides a fascinating and highly accessible guide to the correct pronunciation of Norwegian. In a text rich with examples and useful explanations, Popperwell introduces the reader to the intricacies of the Norwegian spoken in both Oslo specifically, and eastern Norway in general. Following an introductory chapter which looks at the organs of speech and their constitution, Popperwell talks the reader through the pronunciation of Norwegian vowels and diphthongs before furnishing them with the knowledge required to turn an understanding of written Norwegian into a successful cognition of the way the language is spoken. Popperwell writes on the syllabic qualities of the language, the stresses most regularly used and the rhythmic qualities of spoken Norwegian. This book is both thorough and engaging, and will be of great use to any student of the Norwegian language.

A celebratory and empowering story from young trans activist Gavin Grimm, Stonewall Award-winning author Kyle Lukoff, and illustrator J Yang follows the true story of how a young boy stood up for himself--and made history along the way. When you're a kid like Gavin Grimm, you know yourself best. And Gavin knew that he was a boy--even if others saw him as a girl. But when his school took away his right to something as simple as using the boy's restroom, Gavin knew he had a big decision to make.Because there are always more choices than the ones others give you.Gavin chose to correct others when they got his pronouns wrong. He asked to be respected. He stood up for himself. Gavin proved that his school had violated his constitutional rights and had the Supreme Court uphold his case--bringing about a historic win for trans rights. There are many kids out there, some just like Gavin Grimm, and they might even be you.What choices will you make?

停止精神內耗、斷開自我懷疑，情緒價值自己給！學會覺察、辨識和放下，這是最容易找回平靜的方法 在生活或職場等各種需要人際互動的場合中，各位是否也有下列困擾？ ◎總是悲觀看待一切，動不動就患得患失、杞人憂天。 ◎老是覺得自己不夠好，一碰到不如意，便搶在第一時間責怪自己。 ◎有顆玻璃心，常覺得自己被針對，滿腹委屈沒有人懂。 ◎習慣比較，不自覺地羨慕、嫉妒他人；受困於自卑當中，無法放開拳腳。 ◎堅持完美主義，企圖得到所有人的肯定，卻總是一再落空，為此內耗不已。 本書獻給所有希望停止精神內耗、不再為小事操煩的人。 作者加倉井紗央里為日本資深諮商心理師，執業至今已超過30年。 2010年，她創辦了Wellness Life Support研究所，透過舉辦各類講座與研討會， 積極輔導職業婦女、家庭主婦、企業主管、議員、教職員等重拾心理健康。 她在這本書裡分析了各種引發情緒內耗的深層原因， 並提供立即可行的情緒自救指南， 協助讀人們正視並接納所有情緒，不再焦躁、憂鬱或不安。 ★現代人無所不知，唯獨不了解自己： 得益於前所未見的資訊流通，現代人的知識獲取能力大幅提升。 弔詭的是，近乎無所不知的我們，卻似乎對於自我本身所知甚微。 人們的心理狀態每天都在變化，而情緒自救的關鍵，便是改變既有的心理習慣， 意即人們透過自動化思考（automatic thoughts）看待、評價事物的方式。 大家不妨先確認一下，自己是否也有下列心理習慣？ 1.完美主義（All-or-Nothing Thinking） 2.過度類化（Overgeneralization） 3.心理過濾（Mental Filter） 4.負面思考（Disqualifying the Positive） 5.過度解讀（Mind Reading） 6.杞人憂天（The Fortune Teller Error） 7.誇大與貶低（Magnification and Minimization） 8.情緒化推理（Emotional Reasoning） 9.既定思維（Should Thinking） 10.貼標籤（Labelling and Mislabeling） 11.個人化（Personalization） 當你下次又覺得「心情不好」，或是出現其他負面情緒時， 還請先停

在資訊紛雜真偽難辨的現世環境下，事實的真相往往令人難以究明。 本書作者以事例說理，帶領讀者深入真相的發掘。 如何訓練獨立思考的能力是為首要，本書適於社會大眾對求知求真的需求。 全書從真相的重要性和必要性出發（第一、二章），繼而強調查明真相所需經歷的蒐集及辨識合宜的證據、分析及歸納、假說之演繹及二度確認等邏輯步驟（第四至九章），接著提醒年輕醫師要誠實面對自己以免誤入「認知陷阱」（第三、十章），更闡明善用高科技檢查、檢驗乃至人工智慧之優點而非依賴這些工具（第十一章）。其中不時引經據典以佐證其所強調的「查明真相」中所需落實的作為，讓讀者於飽覽全書之後獲得莫大的啟示，進而能時時執行確實的臨床診斷而查明病情真相。 【推薦序】 確實的臨床診斷就能查知病情真相╱ 楊培銘（台大醫學院名譽教授．財團法人肝病防治學術基金會總執行長） 楊治國醫師就讀台大醫學院醫學系時僅低我二屆，後來也僅慢我兩年進入台大醫院內科擔任住院醫師，因此在他從台大醫院內科轉至花蓮慈濟醫院服務前，我們有相當長的時間密切接觸，也對他的為人處事有相當程度的了解。楊醫師做事非常嚴謹，實事求是且擇善固執，對病人的診斷及處置非常盡責。 我們再度有較多接觸是在二○○七年成立台灣實證醫學學會（Taiwan Evidence-Based Medicine Association）時，因為彼此對於臨床診斷及處置的理念相近，故一起和其他志同道合的醫師及醫療相關領域的學者專家籌畫成立台灣實證醫學學會。成立學會的主要目的是希望年輕的醫師及醫事人員在處理病人事務時要有所依據、謹慎行事。學會的主要活動之一是舉辦「實證醫學競賽」，約莫在七、八年前的某次實證醫學競賽中，於評審之餘談及年輕醫師所做的臨床診斷似乎較不夠嚴謹，當時我就請治國醫師設法提醒年輕醫師改善這種現象，事隔多年我其實早已淡忘這件往事，沒想到治國醫師在這幾年當中很認真的思考這件事情並已撰寫多篇文章並集結成書，令我非常敬佩。 醫師日常處置病人事務，首重臨床推理（clinical reasoning），其主要依據來自病史詢問（問診，history taking）及身體診察（physical examination）。問診是為了要了解病人的主觀症狀（symptom），身體診察則是在於發現病人的疾病表癥（sign），這兩種醫療作為所獲得的訊息是醫師對病人的病情做初步判斷最重要的基石。經過合理

The established classic on inferential reasoning in bridgeDeduction is the process of working out what logically follows from facts known or assumed. Psychologists rate deductive reasoning as central to human intelligence and Albert Dormer believes that it is the use of this faculty in bridge that gives players their satisfaction. So why do they so often fail to make the right deductions? The answer lies in correct thinking and in asking the right questions. Albert Dormer, internationally respected both as a player and as a writer of great distinction, shows how, through the use of deduction, bridge players can greatly enhance their card play and enormously increase their pleasure in this fascinating game. Dormer on Deduction is a brilliant book, lucidly written and packed with practical advice.

Demystifying Legal Reasoning defends the proposition that there are no special forms of reasoning peculiar to law. Legal decision makers engage in the same modes of reasoning that all actors use in deciding what to do: open-ended moral reasoning, empirical reasoning, and deduction from authoritative rules. This book addresses common law reasoning when prior judicial decisions determine the law, and interpretation of texts. In both areas, the popular view that legal decision makers practise special forms of reasoning is false.

This Element explores the Bayesian approach to the logic and epistemology of scientific reasoning. Section 1 introduces the probability calculus as an appealing generalization of classical logic for uncertain reasoning. Section 2 explores some of the vast terrain of Bayesian epistemology. Three epistemological postulates suggested by Thomas Bayes in his seminal work guide the exploration. This section discusses modern developments and defenses of these postulates as well as some important criticisms and complications that lie in wait for the Bayesian epistemologist. Section 3 applies the formal tools and principles of the first two sections to a handful of topics in the epistemology of scientific reasoning: confirmation, explanatory reasoning, evidential diversity and robustness analysis, hypothesis competition, and Ockham's Razor.
