Formal Models of Domestic Politics offers a unified and accessible approach to canonical and important new models of politics. Intended for political science and economics students who have already taken a course in game theory, this new edition retains the widely appreciated pedagogic approach of the first edition. Coverage has been expanded to include a new chapter on nondemocracy; new material on valance and issue ownership, dynamic veto and legislative bargaining, delegation to leaders by imperfectly informed politicians, and voter competence; and numerous additional exercises. Political economists, comparativists, and Americanists will all find models in the text central to their research interests. This leading graduate textbook assumes no mathematical knowledge beyond basic calculus, with an emphasis placed on clarity of presentation. Political scientists will appreciate the simplification of economic environments to focus on the political logic of models; economists will discov

《圓覺經》全名《大方廣圓覺修多羅了義經》，透過文殊師利等十二位菩薩與佛陀的問答，宣說如來圓覺妙理，揭櫫一切眾生具足圓覺妙心，是指引如何修行成佛的經典。《圓覺經》廣受唐代天台、華嚴、禪宗、密宗重視，北宋郭印提出佛教四書，清末吳坤修甄選釋氏十三經，它從未缺席，又早早流布高麗與鎌倉時代的朝鮮、日本。該經一卷之薄，允為東亞漢傳佛教「經中之睛」。是次新注新譯，深度利用東亞文獻以校勘、輯佚，紹述唐僧玄奘忠於原典及思想、語言原貌之傳統，從佛學乃至文學角度，予以精當闡釋，化深奧為易懂，內容至簡至要。〈導讀〉一文更明析該經結構、善本、善注、文體，乃至東亞古典時代地位諸議題。研讀佛教經典者，切莫錯過。The Sūtra of Perfect Englightenment 圓覺經, whose full title is The Nītârtha Sūtra on the canon of the great and expansive Perfect Enlightenment (Dà fāngguăng yuánjué xiūduōluó liǎoyì jīng) 大方廣圓覺修多羅了義經, uses a conversation between the Buddha and twelve Bodhisattvas, led by Mañjuśrī, to promulgate the wondrous doctrine of perfect enlightenment. It discloses that all sentient beings have an innate mind of perfect enlightenment, and guides them on how to train to attain Buddhahood. In the Tang dynasty, the Sūtra of Perfect Enlightenment was held in high esteem by the Tiantai, Huayan, Chan, and Vajrayāna (Esoteric) schools. And it was listed in the four Buddhist classics proposed by the Northern Song’s G

«每個人的故事都有它的意義——透過挖掘劉宰的生命故事，探索南宋士人的崇高使命感 «不再侷限皇帝達官顯要的歷史——重新建構南宋基層社會樣貌 ◎「與士大夫共治天下」不是說說而已——致仕歸鄉仍有志於社會 劉宰是何許人也？劉宰並非南宋重臣名宦，身分僅為地方士人官僚，他在官途順遂且尚處壯年之時，毅然辭官返鄉。由於他過往擔任地方基層官的種種經驗，加之家鄉鎮江府金壇縣位處南宋與金的邊境，是當時南宋政局動盪的首衝之地，於是他選擇「退而不休」，不只積極號召、凝聚鄉親人力，更多次推動大型社會公益活動。 ◎小人物立大功——誰說只有權有勢的官宦才能影響政局及社會 縱然劉宰不似同時代的史彌遠、韓侂冑等人威名赫赫，劉宰雖已脫離官場，他仍時常與當權者通信，並且依據自己在地方地所聞所見，提供政策解決方案，同時對時局提出建言。他作為政府官方與地方士人的中介，促使南宋地方政府與基層社會緊密連結，展現南宋時代的獨特士人社會力。 作者結合地理環境和時代政局的變動，描繪劉宰一生所關注、推動以及與時代環境緊密連結的家國事業，藉由認識劉宰他的人格特質以及他所代表的南宋時代的士人社會力微觀研究出發，剖析環境與資源對區域的發展影響，建構出更完整的南宋社會樣貌，試圖從與過往不同的視角理解南宋在中國歷史轉型期的關鍵地位。 Huang Kuanchung is a social historian, political historian, cultural historian, and intellectual historian all at once.
