★《紐約時報》、《今日美國》、亞馬遜書店暢銷書★ 原來，你以為的財富可能錯了?! 徹底顛覆對財富的狹隘認知， 活出更全面、更富足、不帶遺憾的人生 ★幫你做財富健檢—— 計算「新‧財富分數」，擁有五種財富才是真財富 ●「什麼是真正的財富？」一個天使投資人的靈魂拷問 你是否認為「只要賺到足夠的金錢，就能實現夢想人生」？本書作者薩希・布魯姆也曾如此深信。他是一位傳統意義的「人生勝利組」，曾擔任私募股權基金副總裁與天使投資人，努力追求事業成功，將賺錢、賺更多錢視為人生目標。然而，一位久未見面的老友的無心之語：「在你父母去世之前，你大概還會見到他們15次。」卻觸動了他，讓他反思，自己為了追求「成功」而忽略真正重要的事，特別是遠在東岸逐漸年邁的父母。 他開始追尋「什麼是真正的財富？」的解答，他開始與形形色色的人長談，聆聽他們分享人生最重要的事，從年輕的創業家到退休人士，從新手媽媽到空巢族、從富裕的律師到平凡的教師、薩希得到了一個重要的結論：我們真正渴望的，其實與金錢的關係遠比想像中小！人們對理想生活的期盼，驚人地相似，包含充裕的時間、圓融的人際關係、有目標和盼望地活、身體健康——最後才是金錢。 ●原來，你以為的財富可能錯了?! 擺脫財富的謊言 這個領悟讓薩希意識到，過去他所追逐、以金錢為唯一衡量標準的「財富」，是多麼的狹隘與片面。他將這種舊有的觀念稱之為「財富的謊言」（the wealth lie），並決心擺脫謊言的束縛，重新定義真正的富有。於是《人生的五種財富》這本書應運而生，它不僅是薩希個人心路歷程的記錄，更是一本引導讀者設計夢想生活的變革指南。 「財富」是我們人生最重要的追求，卻又無法清楚表達它的模樣，或是給出真正的答案。本書的核心概念就是提出了「五種財富」的新框架，取代了單一的「金錢財富」觀念。用一個簡單的財富健檢計算出「財富分數」，為讀者盤點現狀，並進而規畫未來的五種財富。 ●擁抱人生的五大財富 1.時間財富：指的是你對時間的掌控感與自由度——能按照自己的意願安排時間，將其投入到重要的人和事。薩希用一個簡單卻令人震驚的練習，讓你計算出與摯愛親人見面的剩餘次數，提醒我們時間的珍貴與有限，以及如何透過建立高效的系統來奪回時間的主導權。 2.社會財富：指的是你與他人的連結品質與深度。薩希用一個直白的問句：「在你人生的重要時刻，例如葬禮上，誰會坐在前排？」這些前排的人才是真正

⊰ 一種隱約的不安感，來自擋風玻璃上總是乾乾淨淨、不再有破碎的蟲翅 外面的路燈也不再常有成群飛蟲圍繞…… ⊱――寂靜的春天21世紀昆蟲版‧令人震撼的全球昆蟲調查紀實――★ A New Scientist Book of the Year《新科學家》年度圖書★ Shortlisted for the Wainwright Prize for Conservation Writing溫萊特保育寫作獎提名◎澳洲首都坎培拉國會大廈周圍的蜜蜂為何像醉酒般搖搖晃晃，倒地死亡？◎墨西哥中部的帝王蝶為何在全球暖化下被凍死？ ◎沒有昆蟲，我們就沒有巧克力可以吃？◎昆蟲會幫人類擊退下一場大流行病？Novavax新冠疫苗是由秋行軍蟲（Fall armyworm moth）修改過的細胞開發而成的？一本令人震撼的紀實。挺過四億多年演化、占地球物種四分之三的昆蟲，是人類生命的關鍵支柱，如今正以驚人的速度消失中，部分地區減幅更高達80%。牠們正面臨最嚴重的生存危機。昆蟲種群的悄然崩潰，深刻影響了天空的鳥、我們餐桌上的食物，以及全世界的一切生物。「沒有昆蟲，就沒有巧克力。」許多農業生產都靠昆蟲纖細的肩膀一肩挑起，沒有昆蟲，地球上大部分生命也會跟著消失。作者米爾曼透過遍及全球的野外踏查與訪談，隨眾多科學家、昆蟲學家、農民、養蜂人、原住民和保育工作者，一起追蹤各地昆蟲族群究竟過著怎樣的生活、親臨被忽視的災難現場，包括墨西哥山脈帝王蝶的驚人遷徙、棲地急遽縮減；英格蘭翠綠的鄉村，如今幾已無昆蟲蹤影；美國廣袤的農田，卻成為蜜蜂的墳場等。是什麼導致昆蟲世界崩潰？人類如何高度依賴昆蟲？該如何阻止這個支撐我們的微型帝國消失？昆蟲危機的後果，甚至可能與氣候變遷不相上下？本書最精彩的部分，是聚焦在某些特定物種生態，並挖掘其背後糾葛複雜的社會文化經濟網絡。例如墨西哥帝王蝶為何在全球暖化下被凍死？與歐亞梅爾冷杉有什麼關係？保護區的導遊謀殺案，僅是一則生態訃聞？或是一場深陷經濟算計、利益衝突與氣候暖化的複雜博弈？美國中央谷地為何有蜜蜂竊盜偵探警官？然而這一切並非完全悲觀。只要給昆蟲機會，牠們就會想辦法恢復。作者提出一種溫柔的抵抗來減緩危機――「少做的力量」（The Inaction Plan）：打破人類自己偏好的方式，少維護草坪，少用殺蟲劑和除草劑，在自家就可進行保護。在這個生物多樣性無比破碎的時代，本書沒有末日般的咆哮，

他們朝向沒有盡頭的目標持續奔跑，直到此時此刻，終於讓世界看見自己。這些散落在世界盃賽場上的故事，正等待著哨音響起，由你親手揭幕。四年一次的世界盃，一場全球盛會的足球比賽。它像一場準時降臨的潮汐，把散落在世界各地的人，重新推向同一片海面。有人從山脈深處走來，有人從小島出發；有人在萬人歡呼中迎向最後一舞，有人則在世界幾乎還不認得他的名字以前，已經為了這一刻等待了半生。到了 2026 年，當世界盃第一次由美國、加拿大與墨西哥共同舉辦，當參賽隊伍擴大為四十八隊，足球的版圖也彷彿被重新攤開。那些曾經站在視線之外的人，終於有機會走進燈光之中。《Run to the World Cup踢向新大陸》是一本寫給足球世界的群像傳記，以22段故事，記錄 2026 世界盃裡那些特殊的人、事、地與命運，像是從札格羅斯山脈走出的牧羊少年阿里禮薩·貝蘭萬德，如何把童年的石塊遊戲變成現代球場上驚人的手拋球；大器晚成的班傑明‧阿薩爾，如何在漫長等待後終於靠近世界的門；張狂而敏感的達米安‧馬丁尼茲，又如何用近乎挑釁的方式，守住一個國家的夢。這裡也有一代巨星的黃昏。C羅、梅西，以及可能同樣站在告別邊緣的莫德里奇、肯恩，甚至在最後一刻踏上國家隊征途的內馬爾，都將在時間面前回望自己的足球人生。他們的「最後一舞」，期望將最燦爛、最偏執、最孤獨的自身，在這孤高的賽場上最後一次華麗展開。但世界盃真正動人的地方，往往在那些早已被萬眾熟知的名字之外的土地上。維德角、古拉索、烏茲別克、巴拿馬、剛果民主共和國，這些平日很少被放在足球版圖中央的所在，也各自帶著自己的海風、沙塵、歷史與傷痕，向世界盃前進。對他們而言，晉級，將能夠證明自己也在世界之中，也有資格被看見。本書同時書寫場館與土地的記憶。墨西哥城高原上的阿茲提克體育場，是曾經見證比利、馬拉度納、地震、重生與神話的巨大祭壇；北美三國共同主辦的 2026 世界盃，更像是一幅關於移民、邊界、城市、商業與足球信仰的複雜地圖。每一座球場都不單純是一座靜止的建築，它們收藏著人的聲音，也等待新的故事再次發生。《Run to the World Cup踢向新大陸》想告訴你的，正是這些抵達世界盃之前的路。在一場場比賽真正開始之前，故事往往早已展開：在一張單程車票上，在一個被海浪包圍的小島上，在一座高原球場的陰影裡，在一名老將不願承認自己老去的眼神中。足球之所以迷人，是因為在輸贏之外，它
