A National Bestseller - Recommended by Financial Times as "What to Read in 2025" "The central argument of Our Dollar, Your Problem--that the greenback's pre-eminence was never guaranteed and might plausibly be overturned--could hardly be more timely."--The Economist A leading economist explores the global rise of the U.S. dollar and shows why its future stability is far from assured Our Dollar, Your Problem argues that America's currency might not have reached today's lofty pinnacle without a certain amount of good luck. Drawing in part on his own experiences, including with policymakers and world leaders, Kenneth Rogoff animates the remarkable postwar run of the dollar--how it beat out the Japanese yen, the Soviet ruble, and the euro--and the challenges it faces today from crypto and the Chinese yuan, the end of reliably low inflation and interest rates, political instability, and the fracturing of the dollar bloc.

BATTLE AT FEI RIVERAs the northern emperor Fu Jian prepares to march on the south with an army of the undead, Chen Xing and his ragtag team of exorcists make one final, desperate attempt to convince him to reconsider. But even if Fu Jian abandons his unwitting alliance with the forces of darkness, that will only delay the plans of the Demon God Chiyou, not bring them to an end—and Chen Xing is no closer to solving the mystery of the Dinghai Pearl and releasing the Spiritual Qi of the Heavens and Earth, without which he knows they have no chance of defeating their ultimate foe. Xiang Shu, meanwhile, makes a drastic decision to solve what to him is the more pressing problem: Chen Xing’s imminent, fated death. Other forces are at work here, though, than the exorcists and their enemies, and when the pivotal moment arrives, nothing goes as either Xiang Shu or Chen Xing could possibly have planned…Series Overview: Once, ancient China was brimming with magic…but three hundred years ago, the S

【反確定不是不確定，而是反抗確定性陷阱。】為什麼我們愈篤定，社會愈分裂？在這個過度確信的時代，我們最缺少的不是立場，而是有勇氣承認「自己可能錯了」。「每個故事都有三個版本：我的版本、你的版本，還有真相。」當我們掉進「確定性陷阱」時，就會輕易認為那些意見相左的人，如果不是壞（充滿仇恨），就是笨（無知愚蠢）。特別是面對社會與政治議題時，因為自身道德上的優越感，導致人們更加義憤填膺。確定性思維會讓人認為：那些我們最在乎的事情，原因和解方明明就顯而易見。但事實上，從個人選擇到種族、性別等爭議性議題，在道德或倫理上往往極其複雜。當每個人都堅信自己握有真理，只會助長世界更加壁壘分明，最終導致人們苛刻批評，甚至將反對者妖魔化。作者指出，這種「絕對的確定性」會讓人陷入三種思考盲點：•定論謬誤（The Settled Question Fallacy）：把自己的知識視為定論，對某件事深信不疑，自然會將相反觀點視為錯誤，甚至視為威脅，這會讓人封閉探問與對話的可能性。•對等知識謬誤（The Fallacy of Equal Knowledge）：我們天真地假設「只要你讀了同樣的書、知道了同樣的資訊，你就一定會同意我」，卻忘了即使擁有相同的資訊，也會因為個人經歷而有不同的解讀。•已知意圖謬誤（The Fallacy of Known Intent）：當對方反對我們的觀點時，我們不僅覺得是他錯了，甚至否定他的人格，這是忽略了在善與惡之間，也存在著灰色地帶。「唯一真正的智慧，是知道自己一無所知。」──蘇格拉底當我們不再急著審判，放下非黑即白的定見，開始好奇「為什麼你是這樣想？」那道隔絕彼此的高牆才會開始崩塌。我們誤以為自己是透過窗戶看世界，看見了毫無雜質的真相；其實，我們是站在哈哈鏡前，只能看見被信念扭曲後的倒影。願意質疑自身思維，未必會浮現正確答案，卻能幫助我們看見世界的複雜全貌，減少兩極化狀態。本書充滿社會學的洞見，啟發我們鬆動心中那份確信，接納每一種看法都有被提出、檢視與討論的空間。
