亞里士多德影響巨大，但影響和偉大不是一回事，我們也許仍然要問是甚麼使得亞里士多德成為一位大師——正如但丁稱呼他的，「是那些有知識的人的老師」，而且為何他現在仍然值得我們讀呢？

達爾文去世一百多年來，關於他對知識的貢獻至今仍然有爭議。以簡明淺白的語言寫一本通識讀物依然不失時宜。一部《物種起源》當時何以會引起軒然大波？ 性格平和、謙虛謹慎、彬彬有禮的達爾文，遭到了當時相信「神創論」、「物種不變」的神學界怎樣的非難和攻擊？本書讓我們了解進化論觀點的形成、《物種起源》的誕生的精彩故事之餘，任何看懂和理解達爾文研究的讀者都不會意識不到他對於生物學思想發展以及人類研究起到了極為重要

為甚麼我們有時記不清上周做了甚麼，卻能記得童年往事，好想它們就發生在昨天？記憶如何儲存在我們的大腦中，隨著我們長大衰老它們又如何變化？記憶出錯時會發生甚麼，他人能否操縱我們的記憶？這本迷人的小書彙集了心理學和神經學的最新研究成果，回答了關於記憶科學的其他重要問題，告訴我們記憶如何發生作用、為何沒有記憶我們便無法生活，甚至教給我們改善記憶力的方法。

很難想像還能有另一本文學理論入門書會比這一本更加清晰，也難以想像別的一本書在這麼有限的篇幅裏能講出這麼多的內容。卡勒的闡述技巧向來備受讚譽，他這本書表現出講述文學理論最佳的方式和風格。

Jonathan Stalling’s experimental approach to bridging art, poetics, and linguistics imagines a world where individual value systems are no longer translated into the language of other mediums, but foster conscious “interlanguages.” Stalling writes, “Meeting in the middle, ‘interlanguages’ are spaces where one learns a new language without having left one’s home fully behind; these situations can result in richly generative interlingual and intercultural estuaries which provide new ways of imagining.” Stalling’s conceptual language art fuses Classical Chinese poetics and linguistics with modern algorithms to create art installations and poetry that transform Chinese into English and English into Chinese in new and surprising ways.With a visual gallery of Stalling’s work, an interview with the artist, a critical introduction by the editor, and critical chapters written by the comparative literature scholar Timothy Billings and Chinese Linguist Liu Nian, the volume provides readers with a

The origins of modern Daoism can be traced to the Church of the Heavenly Master (Tianshidao), reputedly established by the formidable Zhang Daoling. In 142 CE, according to Daoist tradition, Zhang was visited by the Lord on High, who named him his vicar on Earth with the title Heavenly Master. The dispensation articulated an eschatological vision of saving initiates—the pure, those destined to become immortals— by enforcing a strict moral code. Under evolving forms, Tianshidao has remained central to Chinese society, and Daoist priests have upheld their spiritual allegiance to Zhang, their now divinized founder. This book tells the story of the longue durée evolution of the Heavenly Master leadership and institution. Later hagiography credits Zhang Daoling’s great-grandson, putatively the fourth Heavenly Master, with settling the family at Longhushan (Dragon and Tiger Mountain); in time his d
