Modeling Dose-Response Microarray Data in Early Drug Development Experiments Using R

教訓要記取仇恨要遺忘我的（寫作）目的是要了解整個事件，並希望世人從中學習教訓，記取沉痛的殷鑑。但是，不同的殘暴程度，通常就會引起不同的反應；因此我一定要提出一些數字，讓讀者對1937年發生在南京的大屠殺規模，有些許概念。一位歷史學家曾經估算，如果讓所有南京大屠殺的死難者手牽手，長度可以從南京到達杭州，綿延約兩百英里長。他們身上的血液共重達一千兩百噸，屍體可裝滿兩千五百節火車車廂。如果把這些屍體疊起來，高度相當於七十四層樓。――張純如這是一段讓人不忍回顧，卻必須面對的過去。1937年12月13日，南京落入日軍手中。一場泯滅人性的大屠殺隨即展開。成千上萬的年輕男子被集合起來驅趕至市郊，不是遭機關槍掃射，就是被日軍當作練習刺刀用的肉靶，甚或被潑了滿身的汽油活活燒死。無數的婦女慘遭日軍強暴與凌虐，就連孕婦也不放過。在幾個星期的時間裡，南京城內屍橫遍野，宛如煉獄。本書從三個不同角度――日本人、中國受難者與當時在場的歐美人士的敘事觀點，全方位呈現整個大屠殺事件；另一方面，抽絲剝繭地檢視這段長達多年的黑暗勢力，探討日本政府如何處心積慮地抹煞世界對大屠殺的記憶。作者蒐集海峽兩岸、歐美、日本許多第一手資料，並且整合大屠殺倖存者的訪談記錄，重新呈現南京大屠殺的完整面貌。透過流利、細緻的文字，讀者可以完整了解南京大屠殺歷史的始末，同時省思歷史事件留予世人的寶貴教訓。各界好評一部從歷史真相中批判道德淪喪的有力新作。張純如在書中謹慎考證了這場浩劫的真實規模與細節。――《芝加哥論壇報》（Chicago Tribune）經過精心的研究考證……故事扣人心弦，牢牢抓住讀者的目光，從頭到尾令人欲罷不能。――鄭念，《上海生與死》（Life and Death in Shanghai）作者張純如深入研究南京大屠殺，為二戰暴行增添並擴展出全新的敘述。這本書非常出色，其所講述的故事值得被世人聆聽。――白彬菊（Beatrice S. Bartlett），耶魯大學歷史系教授令人心碎……一本非常扣人心弦的著作。這本書關於暴行的描述，不僅點出日本帝國軍國主義的根本問題，更呈現了施虐者、強暴者、殺人者的心理問題。――魏斐德（Frederic Wakeman），加州大學柏克萊分校東亞研究所（Institute of East Asian Studies）所長今日的美國，有人做出了正義而美好的事情，她揭發了塵封已久的醜陋惡

《Heartbreak Boys》是一部輕鬆幽默的青春愛情小說，講述兩位男孩在失戀後展開一場假裝快樂的夏日公路之旅。傑克和奈特的前男友成了情侶，還在社群媒體上曬幸福，讓他們決定也一起打造一個看似精彩的假冒冒險旅程，證明自己沒事。但當他們與奈特的父母和妹妹擠在一台車上時，一切遠比想像中混亂。一路上，他們經歷許多笑料百出的事件，也慢慢重新認識彼此。本書探索自我接納、友情與重新愛上的可能，適合喜歡《Heartstopper》與青春喜劇的讀者。"One of the most hilarious, heart-flippingly romantic, charmingly observant writers in the game right now." --Becky Albertalli, author of Simon vs. The Homo Sapiens AgendaA road trip rom-com about heartbreak, social media hijinks, and learning to be happy with who you are, perfect for fans of Heartstopper, Becky Albertalli and Phil Stamper.When their ex-boyfriends get together and start Instagramming a disgustingly perfect summer of love, Jack and Nate decide to concoct a mutual Insta-worthy summer adventure of their own to prove they're just fine and everything's great.Of course, it's hard to have an epic summer road trip when they're stuck in a van with Nate's mid-life crisis-bound parents and his annoying younger sister.

沒有這一張重要臉孔，歷史如何填補深邃空白的──裂縫？對母親的奮力追尋，吹起龐大的歷史珍貴碎片---割開縫隙，照見歷史裂縫的光或者黑暗，竟如此刺眼與驚心――終於掀開灰燼，奇蹟出沒，她不再是沒有任何影子的人。---二戰的百萬東歐勞工立碑之作！最後一塊戰後文學的費力拼圖，就此生成。「我那可憐的、被逼瘋的媽媽！」娜塔莎．沃丁在書寫數十年後的大膽嘗試，摸索近乎空白的家族史，讀者也終能瞥見那被世人遺忘的歷史碎片。這部作品以動人的黑暗之光照見代表數百萬人的命運，它是一個世界的、具歷史性的文學事件。十歲的女孩不知道自己屬於某種人類殘忍拋下的廢物，屬於戰爭遺留下來的一些「人類垃圾」。從小不知為何住在「流離失所者」集中營，更不知母親來自哪裡，經歷了什麼？「如果妳看到了我所看到的」 ，沃丁的母親一遍又一遍地說這句話，但她的意思卻被帶到了她的墳墓裡。作品以動人光芒照見代表數十或數百萬人的命運，一個世界性的文學事件。一段被歷史淹沒、不被照見的摺痕，一出版即震撼國際。更因馬里烏波爾一再遭逢的戰火命運，再次被聚焦。林育立、鄭芳雄/ 專文導讀；房慧真、黃哲翰、鍾文音／重磅力推．席捲歐洲排行榜文學類，一段不被看見的歷史真相。．獲萊比錫書展大獎、阿爾弗雷德．德布林獎（Alfred Döblin Prize）等。．獲歌德學院 New Books in German年度選書。．銷售超過100,000冊以上，售出十餘國版權，近年更被視為重要的歷史資產。．本書被視為歷史資產上一張「重要臉孔」。作者沃丁以追尋她無人知曉的烏克蘭母親，從一點蛛絲馬跡為始，翻出歷史被掩蓋的一頁。她的母親1920年生於港口城市馬里烏波爾，1943年因成為「東方勞工」與其丈夫一起被驅逐遣送到德國。書中講述了關於戰爭大屠殺後，東歐工人強制勞動的生活飽受壓抑的景況，也為歷史下了註腳：第三帝國強迫勞動真相，一段鮮為人知的史實片影。她的母親搭船來德國前就曾目睹其貴族家庭在史達林恐怖主義中毀滅，又於德國歷經希特勒統治的時代，罕見經歷過兩大強權。二次大戰後過幾年，她的母親於三十六歲選擇自殺身亡。隨著事件一一浮出，這位沒有影子的母親幽靈般的存在終於有了相對立體的存在臉孔，彷彿是遲來的奇蹟！出版後讀者感動讚譽，這本書為一張重要的歷史「面孔」，並給予十顆星高度評價。

Veronica Mars gets a fantastical twist in this novel about a girl with a transferrable consciousness, who uses her power for good, only to have it turned on her when someone uses her body to commit murder. Now she must solve the crime before the killer comes after her.Caught red handed... for a crime she didn't commit.It’s an open secret at Harvey Davis High School that Tia Dante can solve all your problems (for a fee, of course).

引用德國萊比錫管理學院（HHL Leipzig）教授梅因哈特（Timo Meynhardt）話來說，約瑟夫˙馬齊里洛是彼得˙杜拉克的「合法繼承人」。然而，約瑟夫˙馬齊里洛本身也是一位學者，有他個人的興趣、熱情、貢獻和觀點。本書（他的最後遺作）表達了他作為思想家、作家，尤其是影響了眾多世人的個人特質。《原則：指引人類邁向更崇高的目標》這本書，闡明了約瑟夫對於管理學成為一門博雅技藝的理解和個人的解讀。正如他在〈內容提要〉中所言，這本書旨在提供有關卓越領導力的一些短文。雖然杜拉克在他的寫作中很少使用「領導力」（leadership）這個詞，但約瑟夫在這部著作中欣然接受了這個詞，聲稱領導力是管理學成為一門博雅技藝的基礎。本書證明了約瑟夫多年來處理杜拉克的想法、理念、理論和方法，然後將之應用於他自己的想法、概念、理論和方法。這本書固然是杜拉克資料的綜合體，卻也是約瑟夫．馬齊里洛多年的研究、思維和獨特處理方法的產物。作者利用四年時間彙整出七篇傳記類的短文。這些短文經由長時間孕育而成，在本書中交織成一個卓越領導力的故事。每一篇短文都有一個獨特、鮮明的主題，串聯到這個卓越領導力的故事。這七篇短文固然皆以卓越領導力為主題，但各有不同的背景。林肯（Abraham Lincoln）是典範，是美國培育出來的卓越領導力中最重要的表率；另外六篇短文接棒林肯的故事，各自闡述優質領導力的其他面向。第二篇短文聚焦於打破美國職棒大聯盟的膚色藩籬。布魯克林道奇隊的總經理芮基（Branch Ricky），在一九四六年簽下羅賓森（Jackie Roosevelt Robinson）。羅賓森是傑出的黑人運動員，勇於面對種族歧視的羞辱，忍氣吞聲、絕不還擊。他先在道奇隊位於蒙特婁的小聯盟球隊出賽，後來在一九四六年球季尾聲升上大聯盟。若要創造出更包容、更有效能的社會，我們必須師法羅賓森和芮基的決定。接下來的三篇短文有些類似的特色，雖不像前兩者那麼廣為人知，但各有其強勁有力之處。這三篇分別是：●〈可攜式維生系統〉（PLSS）：一九六九年七月二十九日首次登陸月球的太空人，使用的登月小艇環境控制系統（ECS）。●〈船上男孩〉（The Boys in The Boat）：這篇短文依據布朗（Daniel James Brown）的小說寫就，描述華盛頓大學划船隊勇奪一九三六年柏林奧運金牌的經過。●〈冰上奇蹟〉（Miracle

Hawkins) 博士提出的情緒能量等級，以「羞愧」、「內疚」、「冷淡」、「悲傷」、「恐懼」、「欲望」、「憤怒」為故事分類，幫助讀者辨識圍繞內疚的七種情緒，釐清負面念頭及行為的源頭。◎內疚的群像覺得自己做得不夠多、不夠好的姊姊；總是要麻煩家人照顧自己的弟弟；長期處於「如果當初⋯⋯就好了」罪疚感的母親；心中無力想遺棄兒子、同時感到自責的父親⋯⋯全書觸及因教養、長照、背叛、拋棄等引發的內疚議題，輪番呈現每個當事人的心路歷程，補足不同的視角及觀點，看見內疚感如何流動於人際之間、產生影響。◎內疚的處理作者爬梳故事中角色的內疚感受，並根據自身生命經歷與諮商經驗，告訴讀者除了自發性的內疚外，還有社會文化架構下給予的「人工內疚」和罪惡感。透過小練習及積極的行動，為自己立下界線，分辨責任歸屬；同時

Can we ever go home again? This question lies at the heart of Homecomings by Wong Yoon Wah, a veteran Singaporean poet and a prominent voice in global Chinese literature.In these poems, Wong delves into his country’s precolonial and colonial history, the natural heritage of the rainforest, his memories of his kampung hometown, his heartbreak at the closure of Nanyang University, and the global traumas of European colonisation and the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami.He expresses the loneliness and dislocation of the Chinese diaspora, as well as the sorrow of his generation as so many of their cultural touchstones are destroyed in the name of progress.

在家庭責任與修行之間，如何找到平衡？如果《一個瑜伽行者的自傳》已觸及你的靈魂，那麼《帕帕吉傳》將帶你到更遠。在混亂世道中，要養活一大家族的在家修行者，怎麼行走人間？這本書不僅是一個現代修行者實錄，更是在這個動盪不安的世界中修行的生活典範。深度、真摯、第一手的敘述，讓你感受到靈性與日常生活如何交織共存。《帕帕吉傳》是一本特別的傳記，由帕帕吉親自邀請編者大衛•高德曼來撰寫，涵蓋了帕帕吉早年在印度尋師訪道的歷程，壯年作為一家之主為生計奔波的歲月，以及在這些外在活動之下，自然流露的種種非凡事蹟和師徒故事。帕帕吉是一位傳奇的現代修行者，故事從旁遮普邦的一個小鎮開始，當時他只有六歲，經歷了一次非凡的開悟體驗。他感受到了一種深刻的內在平靜和安寧，這種感覺一直伴隨著他成長。成人後，他四處尋訪「能讓他見到神的人」，最後，他遇見了上師拉瑪那尊者，從此他的生命豁然開朗。帕帕吉的人生中也有許多波折和挑戰，包括印度在英國殖民下的歷史創傷、印巴分治帶來的動盪、家族責任與棄世修行的矛盾，但他始終保持著一顆平靜的心，並堅定地走著自己的道路。許多人在接觸帕帕吉後，經歷了巨大的轉變，開始更深入地了解自己的本來面目，並開始尋求更有意義的生活。如果說拉瑪那靜默如山，那麼帕帕吉就是一台忙碌的火車頭，遊遍印度，造訪世界各地，恰似無上真我的人間使者，回應有緣的信徒和弟子，無論何處都能聽聞法音、面見真容。他的教授風格宛如獅子吼，震破人們自我蒙蔽的保護網，而又充滿慈愛鼓勵，這在都展現在書中收錄的信箋中，讀之令人動容。這本書是一個現代修行者的實錄，大量發自內心細膩的記載、第一手資料，還有在紛亂的世道修行的典範。如果你曾被《一個瑜伽行者的自傳》給觸動，也切莫錯過《帕帕吉傳》。帕帕吉的故事將深深地觸動你的靈魂，啟發你去探索自己的內心世界。最後，帕帕吉審訂了全書，大部分章節都在勒克瑙每日舉行的薩特桑中朗讀出來。另外還有兩卷傳記，涵蓋了他在1970年代之後與西方修行者和更多的印度弟子接觸的故事，將在日後陸續出版。讀者回饋解脫入門書！帕帕吉所傳遞的訊息，對於幫助實現個人的寧靜非常重要，而「渴望解脫的那把火」，正是重點！――讀者WAYNE R POUND美妙的靈修傳記！我非常感謝大衛・高德曼沒有屈服誘惑而創作一本迎合讀者的小傳記，而是選擇寫出全面、深入的生平故事來介紹這位紀引人注目的現代靈性導師。我覺得整個故事令人著迷，也非常鼓
