From the New York Times bestselling author of The Power of Habit, an investigation of what makes conversations work, and how we can all learn to be supercommunicators at work and in our livesThe right conversation, at the right moment, can change everything.We all know people who seem capable of connecting with anyone. They are the ones we turn to for advice, who ask the best questions—but who are also able to hear what goes unsaid, what we are really trying to say.Why are these people so good at connecting? And what can they tell us about how communication works?Supercommunicators, Charles Duhigg argues, understand—some by intuition, some by hard-won experience—that there is a science to how human beings connect. They understand that every time we speak to someone, we’re actually engaging in one of three conversations: What is this really about? How do we feel? And, Who are we? They know the importance of identifying what kind of conversation we’re having, and then matching it, so tha

'An acerbic, compelling and always accessible account of how opium corrupted the world' TLS'The writing is sublime, the research thorough, the eye for story superb' Sunday TelegraphWhen Amitav Ghosh began the research for his monumental cycle of novels the Ibis Trilogy, he was startled to find how the lives of the 19th century sailors and soldiers he wrote of were dictated not only by the currents of the Indian Ocean, but also by the precious commodity carried in enormous quantities on those currents: opium. Most surprising of all, however, was the discovery that his own identity and family history was swept up in the story.Smoke and Ashes is at once a travelogue, memoir and a history, drawing on decades of archival research. In it, Ghosh traces the transformative effect the opium trade had on Britain, India, and China, as well as the world at large.The trade was engineered by the British Empire, which exported Indian opium to sell to China and redress their great trade imbalance, and

★★25年暢銷經典★★當人在最絕望的時候，需要的是什麼？所有的理論都無法穿透表象、拯救痛苦與絕望，如何做才能真正進入他人的內心世界，發覺真實的脆弱？心結或連結，隔閡或共鳴，關鍵都在同理心。不是同情、不是建議、不是比較、不是說教，是去感受、去理解、去傾聽、去接納。作者喬拉米卡利是哈佛醫學院教授，他弟弟曾經少年得志卻不知人生未來方向，而後因吸毒被通緝便逃離海外；作者專攻心理學，有自信能勸弟弟回國，他透過越洋電話溝通和開導，告知弟弟全家人都很想念他，大家會幫忙解決一切問題並全力支持。弟弟在電話最後說：「我愛你，告訴爸媽，我也愛他們。」不久便自殺。這個極為震撼的結局讓喬拉米卡利崩潰，他不斷反思，在弟弟最絕望的時候，最需要的是什麼？是生活的建議、是去敲醒他的頭腦、說些安慰話努力開釋，還是緊緊擁抱？深度理解人性，清楚看待自己，控制批判與譴責的衝動，看懂人們如何感知世界。同理心是人類共同的語言：如果想化解仇恨、避免誤會、撫平所有創傷；如果想要原諒自己、原諒這輩子最想原諒的人，甚至單純想認識周遭那些看來不是太可愛或奇怪的人；透過同理心，這些都能實現：★學習表達同理的7個關鍵步驟★識別同理心的真貌：是同情？還是別有目的？★同理心如何找到真愛、強化親密關係？★看懂同理心的雙面性：遠離同理心黑暗面的10個方法★練習藉由誠實、謙遜、接納、寬容、感恩、信念、希望、寬恕等8種行為來獲得同理心的力量。同理心是能力，也是生存技巧，必須精心培養與持續重視，才能真正發揮它的力量。只要擁有這股力量，就會有勇氣放開自己，識別並排除成見，與他人建立和諧良性的長久關係，避免人生的陰暗面為生活帶來糟糕的影響。準確理解他人感受，同理心才會有力量與感染力，彌補人與人之間最深層的裂痕，甚至原諒自己、克服自身軟弱。同理心是天生就有的能力，更是生活必不可缺的一部分，可以讓人們相互理解；然而，同理心卻是人際關係中最容易被忽視，甚至被利用來作惡，更常被誤解是「以情緒為導向」的同情。每個人身上都具有成長和改變的各種可能性，藉由同理心的力量，能幫助我們找到內心深層的需求，發掘人生階段中的種種可能，表達出靈魂中最痛苦的問題，以及強化生存所依賴的能力——正確理解並敏感地回應彼此，明白什麼是感同身受、看懂人心，並能依此自我保護，全然且全心地生活。作者認為自己缺乏正確同理而未能阻止弟弟自殺，因此痛失至親，這份深刻的悔恨與遺憾，讓他決心投

兩度獲諾貝爾提名的著名科學家歐文?拉斯洛（Ervin Laszlo）曾評價琳達?豪兒的第一本書《如何解讀阿卡西紀錄》：「這本書給我很奇妙的感覺，它不僅完整，可塑性強，並且實用，能夠指引人們進入宇宙的生命資訊庫——也就是阿卡西紀錄。現今，科學界也在對阿卡西紀錄進行新的探索和發現，我們把他稱為阿卡西磁場域（Akashic Field），它是維持整個宇宙一體化存在並運行的資訊中樞紐……」在阿卡西畛域中所能體驗到的最大療癒，就是為自己和他人釋放存在於我們內在核心中的無條件之愛。以「神聖傷痕」為入口的療癒旅程分為三個階段：首先，找到那隱藏在最內我的創傷，藉由覺知、接納、行動及選擇，重新發掘自身的力量點；接著將目光轉移至自己與他人的關係上，以接納與寬恕超越怨恨，從被束縛的狀態轉變為自由，找到一條充滿和平的路徑；最後，以神聖傷痕作為轉化和超越的跳板，在充滿感激、恩典和慷慨的揚升矩陣中，體驗超越並有意識地與神性融合。

告訴你答案，也告訴你問題！解答7大管理面向，116個真實困境，讓老鳥得心應手，新手立刻上手。身為主管開口尋求幫助就是軟弱、不專業嗎？即便是經驗豐富的領導人，都會遇上讓人不知所措的新狀況，當管理者面臨看似日常的困境時，也會感到孤立無援、無所適從，甚至任由情況變糟，因而做出錯誤處置或不當決定。管理是非常具有挑戰性的工作，沒人知道如何解決所有問題。無論是新手還是經驗豐富的管理者，都需要承擔各方面的責任。當工作出現新狀況，或是剛到新公司和新部門，很多管理者都會陷入管理陷阱，不知從何著手，甚至不知道如何問對問題和尋求幫助。是否該仿效優秀的前任管理者？如何管理遠距工作？如何區分「指導」和「建議」？對於公司內部流傳的各種謠言，該採取行動嗎？不同產業的策略和準則大不相同，但管理上的日常挑戰卻大同小異。兩位作者以豐富的人力資源管理經驗，透過問答形式直搗問題本質，提出人性化、實務上最常見的管理困境，為各階層管理者提供解決方案：＊關於「忠誠度」：我認為應該在一個公司至少工作五年，而不是一直跳槽，但我發現如今員工換工作的次數比以前多。如何看出員工對公司的忠誠度？是否有判斷服務年限的新標準？＊關於「引薦人才」：我想向公司推薦優秀的前同事來公司工作。我的主管和其他同事都面試過他，但人力資源部門卻有不同的意見，我要如何說服他們？＊關於「分派工作」：我不想放棄自己最喜歡的工作內容，然而我必須委派部屬來完成，這樣不僅能幫他們成長，我也可以有更多時間來完成自己的職責，但我不想讓大家認為「我在推工作給他們」，對此有什麼好建議？＊關於「新上任」：我剛接手管理職務，前任管理者深受所有員工、同業和上司喜愛，但我不是他，一定會有不同的行事風格，只是我不想因此和大家疏遠，我該如何與部屬們有一個好的開始？＊關於「謠言」：部門中流傳著無數謠言，大部分我都聽過，幾乎都不是真的，我不知道如何解決這個問題。我想忽略它們，等它們慢慢消失。我該採取行動嗎？＊關於「遠距辦公」：我剛換了新公司，這間公司有遠距辦公，之前我從未管理過遠距辦公的部屬，偏偏我的部門大多數職位都適合遠距工作。當員工提出遠距辦公的請求時，我應該要考慮哪些因素？……每個管理者時不時都要面臨十分困難的情況，不論是向上、向下或同儕管理，唯有不斷提出問題、進修、學習並嘗試新想法，隨時了解團隊狀況，避免遭遇突發事件時作出錯誤判斷，才能加強自己身為管理者的競爭力。本書從
