Heritage and History in the China–Australia Migration Corridor traces the material and social legacy of migration from China to Australia from the 1840s until the present day. The volume offers a multidimensional examination of the material footprint of migration as it exists in the migration corridor stretching between Zhongshan county in south China and Australia. Spanning the fields of heritage studies, migration studies, and Chinese diaspora history, Denis Byrne, Ien Ang, Phillip Mar, and other contributors foreground a transnational approach to the heritage of migration, one that takes account of the flows of people, ideas, objects, and money that circulate through migration corridors, forming intricate ongoing bonds between those who migrated to Australia and their home villages in China.

From the New York Times bestselling author of A Deadly Education comes the sixth volume of the Temeraire series, as Will Laurence and Temeraire are exiled to Australia in the ever-expanding war between Napoleon and Britain. “Temeraire and his fellow dragons are surely Novik’s finest accomplishment.”―BookPageConvicted of treason despite their heroic defense against Napoleon's invasion of England, Temeraire and Capt. Will Laurence have been transported to a prison colony in distant Australia―and into a hornet's nest of fresh complications. The colony is in turmoil after the overthrow of military governor William Bligh―aka Captain Bligh, late of HMS Bounty. And when Bligh tries to enlist them in his bid to regain office, the dragon and his captain are caught in the middle of a political power struggle. Their only chance to escape the fray is accepting a mission to blaze a route through the forbidding Blue Mountains and into the interior of Australia. But the theft of a precious dragon egg

想讓聽眾理解你、相信你，甚至好想幫助你 關鍵在於自我人設 ▍美國《富比士》雜誌評選「引領亞洲的青年領袖」的溝通絕學 ▍日本創業圈瘋傳，讓世界銀行、Panasonic、Uniqlo慷慨解囊的簡報法則 作者三輪開人是非營利組織e-Education的負責人，為開發中國家提供教育援助。很多人認為，其他國家的教育問題與自己無關，但作者憑著獨創的簡報法，成功打動聽眾的心，募得活動資金，也吸引世界銀行、Panasonic、Uniqlo等國際組織與跨國企業紛紛響應。 在此之前，作者其實是一個不敢站在臺前講話的人，還因為缺乏同理心，讓部下和妻子離自己而去，e-Education也曾陷入孤立無援的危機。他從這些痛苦的經驗中學到，「共感」才是與他人交流、建立信賴關係的唯一途徑。 他自行開發出一套「共感」簡報法，擺脫了之前的困境，還在商業簡報大賽中拿下第一名，這支冠軍影片已超過1,000,000人次瀏覽。創業圈盛傳「只要學會三輪開人的簡報法，就能拉到更多投資者與消費者的支持和協助」，登門求教者絡繹不絕。如今他也為國家隊教練提供諮詢，傳授能和運動員產生「共感」的說話方式。 本書將會詳盡說明，一套有效的「共感簡報」必須先調整好人設、呈現真實的自己，再輔以刺激想像的視覺資料與說話訣竅，就能讓原本興致缺缺的聽眾理解你、相信你，甚至好想幫助你。 ※ 共感簡報四元素 ※ 腳本、口白、投影片、訓練 ★跟歐巴馬學【共感腳本】→讓人感受到這是「我們」的事 2004年，歐巴馬發表了一場傳奇演說，把自己推上總統之位。 這場演說由三種故事交織而成： ．用「我」的故事帶給聽者親切感 ．用「我們」的故事讓聽者變成當事人 ．用「此刻」的故事敦促聽者實際行動 ★跟賈伯斯學【共感投影片】→保留殘缺，刺激想像 一張投影片最好只有0.5個訊息。 讓資訊不完整，才會引起聽眾注意。 當聽眾在腦中自行想像，就比較容易共感而被打動。 實際上你可以這麼做： －減少字型與顏色 －不套用圖表的標準格式 －省略轉場與動畫技巧 ★跟航海王魯夫學【共感口白】→以展露弱點拉攏對方 航海王魯夫有強大的能力，但身為海盜卻不會游泳，還是常常跳進大海中，又靠同伴幫助而得救。 魯夫的魅力不在於他有多厲害，而是他的性格率真又正直，才贏得夥伴的喜愛。 講者的
