本書試圖從國共內戰遺緒探討臺灣小說中呈現的復原神話與情感結構。戰爭造成了各種的傷害，帶來積極復原的渴望，召喚意義的同時，造成了不同以往的新感覺、新思維。戰爭遺緒是重述記憶時的新基點，致使復原並非完全是過去的重現，反而添加了許多現下的想像與願望的結果。因此本書將借重朱迪斯‧巴特勒（Judith Butler）戰爭框架（frames of war）以及雷蒙‧威廉斯（Raymond Williams）情感結構（structures of feeling）的概念，勾勒國共內戰後臺灣小說對於國族復原的想像敘事。分析小說家如何建構復原神話敘事以獲取意義，產生認同的動能，同時讓支撐此神話的情感結構成為可以指認、分析的對象。最終提出「復原神話」與「情感結構」術語之理論界說，以此思考兩者對現下文化與心靈之影響。

本書來自於《金匱要略》第二十篇婦人妊娠、第二十一篇婦人產後與第二十二篇婦人雜病，乃現存中醫典籍中有關婦人生理與病理最完整記錄，更是秦漢時期針對婦人病臨床治療經驗總結。內容涵蓋婦人經、帶、胎、產與雜病，原文共四十五條，載方四十餘首，七十餘味藥，篇中提出婦人「虛」、「積冷」與「結氣」三大病因，並以「婦人-血-胞門」與「婦人-血室」為生理病理機轉，治法與藥物劑型多樣，除湯劑、丸劑、散劑、藥酒等內服藥外，並開創外用藥劑型，如塞劑、洗滌劑等。 婦人三篇乃婦產科學核心經典，臨床診斷與運用治療婦人諸多疾病，深具功效，為後世中醫婦產科學之發展奠定基礎。鑒於中醫學未來發展逐漸專科化，故將《金匱要略》分成《金匱要略》內科學與《金匱要略》婦科學兩專科，讓有志於內科專科或婦科專科之醫家能擷取其中精華而運用於臨床診療。婦人三篇經文簡短深奧，義理含蘊艱澀，初入門醫家諱於經典文字古樸而望之卻步，雖然歷代注家相繼闡釋而後明，惟專業切入臨床角度詮釋婦人三篇之義理精髓者，迄不多見，因撰《《金匱要略》婦科學二十二堂課》一書，參考1340年元•鄧珍本《新編金匱方論》與1395年明•洪武二十八年吳遷抄本，針對婦人三篇原文參古鑒今，逐一闡釋，每條均有【提要】與【解析】，契合臨床，對婦科疾病脈、證、症，病，藥、方六大環節逐一論述與發揮，並且結合末學於《中醫藥研究論叢》（Taipei Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine）、《中醫藥雜誌》（Journal of Chinese Medicine）與《台灣中醫醫學雜誌》（Taiwan Journal of Chinese Medicine）等期刊發表之論文，俾讀者參考。

Dotty和另一隻Dotty是一對相同的手套。當條紋手套Stripes失去搭檔、成為孤單的一隻時，她們嫌她「不成對」，拒絕讓她加入。可不久後，Dotty自己也成了單隻手套，被新配成對的Stripes排除在外。小女孩看著這一切，問了一句：「為什麼一定要配對？」這句話讓手套們明白，原來「配對」有時會讓人感到被排擠。於是她們學會欣賞彼此的不同。本書以輕鬆對話和幽默筆調，讓孩子理解友情與歸屬的真意，也鼓勵勇敢做自己。A single mitten is excluded by a matching pair in this endearing picture book about friendship, belonging and the pressure to "match."

Before long, however, Dotty loses her partner, and now she doesn't match the reunited pair of Stripes and Other Stripes, who in turn banish her to the pocket. "YOU don't match!" they tell her.When the Little Girl, who has been listening to their conversations, weighs in with a huge question ("Why do you have to match?"), the mittens are shocke

An imaginative and heartfelt book that reminds us that there is no loss without love. When Grief first arrives, it is like an elephant--so big that there is hardly room for anything else.
