In Trouble in Paradise, Slavoj Zizek, one of our most famous, most combative philosophers, explains how by drawing on the ideas of communism, we can find a way out of the crisis of capitalism. There i

輕鬆培養統計鑑賞力․資料處理及統計應用力․計算邏輯與軟體操作力․理解學術文獻的識讀力Joseph F. Healey的《你一定要會的研究工具：社會統計》成為國內公私立大學社會學系社會統計課程教材由來已久。本書作者不會告訴你統計學是「有趣的」，也不會跟你說不費吹灰之力就能掌握這本書的內容。但是作者不拘泥於公式推導，著重於統計在社會科學研究中的應用與詮釋；不執著於繁複計算，引入SPSS統計軟體讓你具有處理真實資料的能力；在為你拆解每一步計算過程中，也一併拆解你接近統計的每一道阻力。保證你不會淹沒於抽象證明、公式推導或數學理論中，這些挫敗的學習經驗都是不必要的。

德國全盤繼受羅馬法，法國在羅馬法符合理性的範圍內繼受羅馬法，英格蘭原則上拒絕繼受羅馬法，這三個國家就繼受羅馬法採取不同的立場，對他們的法律發展有何影響？本書從法律發展史的觀點，分析比較他們的政治社會背景與法律發展過程，關於法律繼受提出非常有意義的歷史經驗，讓讀者能用更宏觀的角度觀察法律的發展，是值得讀者慢慢細嚼的經典著作。

This textbook on rotating fluid dynamics combines a pedagogical development of theoretical ideas with a description and analysis of many of the fascinating examples of rotating flows found in nature. The book is self-contained, starting in Part I with introductory chapters on fluid dynamics and waves. The largest section of the book is Part II, where a broad theoretical framework is developed for rotating flows, including Ekman layers, inertial waves, Taylor columns, Rossby waves, precession, instabilities, rotating convection, vortex breakdown, and rotating turbulence.The book ends, in Part III, with an analysis of some naturally occurring rotating flows, including tornadoes and dust devils, tidal vortices, tropical cyclones, convection in planetary cores, zonal winds in planetary atmospheres, and astrophysical accretion discs. Davidson presents a unique combination of a deep but broad theoretical framework with a detailed discussion of many naturally occurring flows. Moreover, the bo
