AI的新聞這麼多，為什麼？重點不是OTT 是「內容創造」升級媒介批評，達致改變的可能繼《台灣媒介一百年：國家、政黨、社會運動》200餘篇專文 以政治經濟學角度關切傳媒、台灣社會與兩岸關係的未來 =內容簡介= 「政治經濟學根植於道德哲學及制度的探討：我們應當如何界定好的社會和好的生活，以及我們需要怎樣的資源和社會組織形式。」——Graham Murdock「新科技再怎麼改變……我們仍然必須投入心力，思考我們的民主承諾。人需要好新聞、好報導、好傳媒內容，不變。」——Edwin Baker本書收錄作者自1992至2024年間作品，內容涵蓋三個部分：傳播政治經濟學、台灣社會與兩岸關係。隨著媒介的變化日增，媒介批評與檢視應當更為升級——媒介占據的經濟、政治、文化與休閒地位上升，反映在數量的競爭轉劇，也就是媒介資本化的廣度與深度漸趨強化，這正是1990年代以來，台灣媒介生態的重要特徵。當今，謹訴求於媒介自律、閱聽人素養，若沒有國家以制度性設計，介入媒介環境的規畫，自律者無法得到自律的條件，閱聽人無法得到伸張公民身分的養分，媒介改造的議題終究只是治標的手段。本書經由積累三十年來的相關時事新聞，具體剖析媒介的內與外，期待擴充第四權概念，重視傳媒的經濟報導及其相應的監督作用。而隨著OTT平台興起，網路嬰兒轉成跨境電商，谷歌稅、科技文化捐是否也該納入；數位匯流的時代，台灣在網飛、YouTube、愛奇藝、Disney+……的夾擊之下，是否該強力規範外來影視作品，建立文化信心，厚實文化認同的內涵。無論是跨境電商或OTT，在經濟上都該納管課徵。Edwin Baker說：「新科技再怎麼改變……我們仍然必須投入心力，思考我們的民主承諾。人需要好新聞、好報導、好傳媒內容，不變。」在二十一世紀的串流時代，檢視媒介再現的面貌、產權結構，依舊是作者關心民主政治與經濟分配的核心命題；本書亦聚焦影視的發展與政策，探討數位時代對著作權的影響，並兼及稅捐、社會福利與兩岸問題……234篇專文呼籲靜態的論述與動態的行動相互結合，催生改變的可能！

The secret to productivity isn’t discipline. It’s joy.We think that productivity is all about hard work. That the road to success is lined with endless frustration and toil. But what if there’s another way?Dr Ali Abdaal – the world's most-followed productivity expert – has uncovered an easier and happier path to success. Drawing on decades of psychological research, he has found that the secret to productivity and success isn't grind – it's feeling good. If you can make your work feel good, then productivity takes care of itself.In this revolutionary book, Ali reveals how the science of feel-good productivity can transform your life. He introduces the three hidden 'energisers' that underpin enjoyable productivity, the three 'blockers' we must overcome to beat procrastination, and the three 'sustainers' that prevent burnout and help us achieve lasting fulfillment. He recounts the inspiring stories of founders, Olympians, and Nobel-winning scientists who embody the principles of Feel-Goo

When will I find you?Where could you be?What will it take?To see an owl. Silent and wide-eyed, owls are hidden creatures of the night. Janie has always dreamed of finding one. She searches everywhere for signs of an owl - on the open prairie for short-eared owls, on the beach for snowy owls, and for great horned owls in the woods near her home. But months go by, and she sees no owls. She wonders, what will it take to see an owl? Her teacher, Mr. Koji, a fellow bird-lover, shares that he, too, waited a long time to see an owl. He assures her, "If you are very quiet and very patient, and if you look very close, you might just find them." When th

From bestselling author, life coach, and sociologist Martha Beck comes a new path to overcoming anxiety by awakening the creativity within.AN OPEN FIELD PUBLICATION FROM MARIA SHRIVERMost of us assume that the key to overcoming anxiety is to think our way out of it. And for a while, it works. Meditation and mental exercises offer us relief, but there is always something—a work deadline, a family emergency, a particularly distressing newsbreak—that disrupts our sense of peace and sends us right back inside the same anxious spiral we’ve been trying to climb out of.Is there a way to reduce our anxiety, not just in the moment, but in every moment after that?After a lifetime of struggling with anxiety, Martha Beck studied just about everything there was to know about how to calm down. What she realized is that the analytical part of our brain—so valued in Western culture—is the same structure responsible for amping up anxiety. In other words, we cannot logic our way to relief.

In Socializing Medicine, Pao-chen Tang, Yuqian Yan, and Ling Zhang explore the intersections of medicine, health, and East Asian media. Interweaving archival research, audiovisual analyses, and theoretical insights from the emerging field of health humanities, the book reveals the multifaceted ways in which the mass media—from photography and film to television and live streaming—has been deployed as a tool for controlling medicine and health, privileging those with power and authority from the early twentieth century to the present. Adopting anti-colonial and anti-capitalist perspectives, the contributors in this volume challenge the dominant mediations of health against the backdrop of imperialism, Cold War geopolitical tensions, and neoliberal capitalism. Collectively, they advocate for alternative understandings of medical culture through media productions that envision accessible and equitable healthcare practices.

Volume IThe Silk Manuscripts from Zidanku, Changsha (Hunan), are the only pre-Imperial Chinese manuscripts on silk found to-date. Dating to the turn from the 4th to the 3rd centuries BC (Late Warring States period), they contain several texts concerning basic cosmological concepts, including one manuscript (Manuscript 1) with a diagrammatic arrangement and surrounded by pictorial illustrations. As such, they constitute a unique source of information complementing and going beyond what is known from transmitted texts.This is the first in a two-volume monograph on the Zidanku manuscripts, reflecting almost four decades of research by Professor Li Ling of Peking University. While the philological study and translation of the manuscript texts is the subject of Volume Two, this first volume presents the archaeological context andhistory of transmission of the physical manuscripts.
