當你翻開這本書時，如果湊巧想起了一位失聯的朋友，請你努力將今天記下來，或者寫在日誌上，因為《小王子》說：「把朋友忘了，是一件很可悲的事，並非每個人都有朋友的……」《小王子》適合9歲到99歲的人閱讀，書中的隱喻既明朗又隱諱，一筆一筆勾勒出人類心中最原始的美。小王子是好奇的頑童，為了探險來到地球，當他仰望成千上萬個星星時，小王子永遠有辦法辨別出那個最特別的星球，就像漂泊的人類，心裡惦記著一塊終究會回去的原鄉。閱讀本書，你可能大吃一驚，彷彿遇到熟識的朋友，分享你的心情；你也可能為了某些橋段傷心，書中的語言那樣深刻，共鳴響起，猶如你親筆寫下的日記。你可以把閱讀《小王子》的經驗當作一個珍藏秘密，每一次閱讀都重新洗淨你的心靈。《小王子》如此平實地存在著，正如同你我生活的意境。 The Little Prince addresses the feelings hidden in the depths of your heart. Perhaps it has been years since you decided to dwell in solitude. Every day you try your best to avoid dangers that might hurt your feelings. After many years, you may find out nobody can gain access to your heart. You may even forget how to grasp happiness when it shows up.The Little Prince awakens your mind. It approaches your heart with a gentle motion. Before you know it, The Little Prince has done everything to prepare you for grace and love. That is the magic of this book. The author of The Little Prince uses a child’s point of view to offer profound and ke

回顧歷史，人工智慧的發展曾歷經許多變革，隨著元宇宙聲量擴散到許多國家，人們開始重新思考兩者結合的可能性。 如本書與各位談到現今人工智慧在醫療、金融、製造、零售、農業再到智慧城市的產業應用外，作者還特別分享元宇宙與人工智慧的三大關鍵指標：數據、演算法及電腦算力，如何藉此進一步帶動新的人工智慧產業鏈技術，進而虛實整合應用創造更多新的商業模式。 但即便科技及技術的發展越趨多元，人工智慧面臨的最大挑戰其實並不是技術不足，很多時候反倒是機器時代理性思考的困境、倫理道德，甚至是中美間政治局勢的影響。 因此許多科技巨頭如 Google、百度等大公司開始積極佈局自家人工智慧的資安、技術版圖，與此同時歐盟、英國、日本、德國也同樣把人工智慧的技術應用留在自己的國家，是否能藉由元宇宙、虛擬貨幣的發展帶動國與國之間的人工智慧技術結合，無疑是一大挑戰。

資本主義已死？我們還要它嗎？或者提倡更美好的社會主義？何明修：在二十一世紀前二十年，全球已經面對了金融風暴、不平等急遽惡化、中國的資本輸出、右翼民粹主義、AI取代人工、冠狀病毒等挑戰。大衛．哈維帶領讀者重新閱讀十九世紀的馬克思著作，逐一剖析這些新興現象背後的政治經濟學之根源。萬毓澤：哈維將2019年全球爆發的社會抗爭（包括臺灣讀者比較熟悉的香港反修例運動）當成本書的出發點。這些抗爭各有不同的觸發因素，但背後的共通點往往是經濟與民主治理同時失靈：一般人的經濟生活困頓，而又無力透過政治矯治弊病。新冠肺炎發生後的今日，全球世界經歷一波波的經濟危機、公共衛生危機、階級鬥爭和新法西斯反動，但極少人能像全球知名公共知識分子大衛‧哈維那樣看清事態和展望未來。多年來他一直追蹤資本主義體制的演變和反資本主義基進浪潮。在《反資本主義編年紀事》中，哈維介紹了理解全球資本主義危機和爭取更美好世界的鬥爭的新方式。除了解釋暴力和災難，哈維也闡述希望和可能性，發揮個人的典型的才智，藉由談論新自由主義、資本主義、全球化、環境、科技、社會運動和冠狀病毒等危機，概述了如何在非常艱難的情況下構思社會主義替代方案。他提供一個馬克思主義框架，有助分析反資本主義鬥爭中不受重視的面向和它們的國際關聯。本書的靈感來自哈維的「反資本主義紀事」（Anti-Capitalist Chronicles），一個每月兩次的播客和線上影片節目，以馬克思主義的視角審視當代資本主義。《反資本主義編年紀事》提出的分析，對政治和社會運動，以至關注不義的當前階級鬥爭形態非常重要。本書共十九章，哈維在當中論述當代重要議題，包括經濟中金融和貨幣勢力集中的現象、新型冠狀病毒大流行、通用汽車關廠事件、新自由主義者與新法西斯主義者在巴西和世界各地的新興聯盟，以及二氧化碳排放與氣候變遷。他探討了馬克思主義和社會主義的關鍵概念，包括資本的起源和發展、疏離異化、社會主義與「不自由」，以及資本積累的地理和地緣政治。哈維也談到川普政府解決新自由主義危機的嘗試和失敗，以及組織社會主義替代方案之必要。眼下是黑暗和危險的日子，非常需要深入分析和認識對我們不利的力量，以及改造社會以滿足所有人需求的富遠見的替代方案。哈維的努力在世人面臨攸關生死的當代迫切鬥爭之際，照亮前路。專文導讀葉浩（國立政治大學政治系副教授）萬毓澤（國立中山大學社會學系教授兼社會科學院副院長）一

Sydney and his friends gather outside to play, transforming one by one to climb, leap, lumber and soar into a shared jungle of their imagination.Hanging upside down in a tree, Sydney imagines he is a sleepy, sun-bathing sloth. And that's where Sami finds him. Sami thinks sloths are too slow, so she scampers up the tree and becomes a spider monkey. "Fast is fun!" she chatters. "Fast is best!" And that's where Edward finds them... One after another, the neighborhood kids wander by and slip into a shared imaginative world where leaves and giant flowers unfurl, playing, laughing, teasing and bickering, until Edward the elephant fills up his trunk and--WHOOSH!--sends the children "galloping home like a herd of small wet animals." As always, Marie-Louise Gay's writing and artwork are wonderfully pitched to young readers, capturing the effortless way that children travel back and forth between the worlds of real life and make believe.

★100種對話場景進階攝影技法，讓電影更顯戲劇張力及創意效果！許多人認為劇情片之所以極具電影感，是因為他們擁有雄厚的預算。而《大師運鏡》系列想闡述與證明的，就是電影感其實與成本無關。能夠打造出強而有力的場景與否，取決於攝影機的位置，以及如何安排演員位置和指導演員。有了在《大師運鏡 2》習得的技巧，就能夠讓對話場景如預期般深刻，在發揮演員最佳表現的同時，每個劇情轉折點、每個情緒，以及每個微妙的寓意，也都將能更清楚地傳達。除了基本運鏡技巧之外，《大師運鏡2》更進一步擷取多部賣座電影的影像圖片，以範例來說明如何藉由演員走位及運鏡技巧，創造出不同類型的成功效果；在每個章節的最後，更以電腦圖形重新創建場景，展示在分鏡安排上該怎樣調整，就能延伸出更加精彩的拍攝效果，觀賞本書引用的電影，你會驚訝地發現，有創意地運用攝影機，竟能如此大幅提升各場景的表現力。無論是該場景背後的意義、情緒，或是每一個瞬間的戲劇張力，都將得以產生迴響。有這麼多的導演竟滿足於以浩大的移動畫面展開場景，然後只為對話安排正角或對角鏡頭，著實是場悲劇。你絕對可以做得更好。本書中的所有運鏡技巧，幾乎用任何設備都能完成。你可以用手持攝影機的方式拍攝，也可以運用最基本的推軌、機械手臂以及穩定器。在讀完《大師運鏡 2》後，你會瞭解到，取景和動作安排的細微改變，如何能影響一個場景。它們同時也賦予你能力，將個人視野帶到大螢幕上的每一個畫面。當《大師運鏡》剛出版時，它立即大獲各方好評，並迅速成為最佳暢銷書之一。無數電影工作者寄來電子郵件，表達他們在處理鏡頭時如何因此有所頓悟。有人說，沒想到單只是攝影機的設置，就存在著這麼多的層級。知道有這麼多電影工作者願意更進一步地鑽研技巧，十分令人開心。上本書在出版幾個月內，就成為了電影學校的熱門書籍，連得過獎的電影人，也寫信分享《大師運鏡》對他們的幫助，其中甚至包括眾多好萊塢大導演。一位導演甚至表示，假如他沒有書在身邊，就絕不會進入片場。《大師運鏡2》除了導演應該閱讀之外，更應該將其送給拍攝團隊中的每個參與者，讓大家一起朝著更具創意、更能揮灑熱血的電影創作工作邁進！本書介紹範例（部分）：〈為愛朗讀〉-史帝芬‧戴爾卓〈惡棍特工〉-昆汀‧塔倫提諾〈慕尼黑〉〈AI人工智慧〉-史蒂芬‧史匹柏〈愛情，不用翻譯〉-蘇菲亞‧柯波拉〈星際爭霸戰〉- J.J.‧亞伯拉罕〈鴻孕當頭〉-傑森‧瑞特曼〈雙面瑪琳達

本書特色★印度詩人商多士．雅列思首本中譯詩集。★本詩集譯者亦是著名詩人李魁賢，獲頒2016年奈姆．弗拉舍里文學獎，賦予桂冠詩人榮銜，並聘為詩歌節榮譽委員；2017年國家文藝獎得主。序自序　Preface 二十年來，我一直用五種語言在翻譯文學作品。 開始時是翻譯短篇小說，然後繼續翻譯小說和詩。幾年後，我專注於譯詩。 從學校畢業後就開始寫詩，那些習作，仍然留在我私人日記裡。我重點在大量閱讀當代英文、印地文和馬拉雅拉姆文的詩，特別是這些語文的年輕詩人作品。由於長期譯詩，也許我的詩人身分就此浮現，為我2008年出版馬拉雅拉姆文第一本詩集，和2013年第二本詩集鋪路，同年我也出版第一本印地文詩集。 對我來說，詩是個人生命的慶典。這是我對外在世界的回應。讀者不一定要同意我的觀點，或對我在詩裡描寫的情境或主題有所回應。但我相信，我的詩有力道讓讀者思考那情境或主題，我認為那是身為詩人的成就。用我的母語馬拉雅拉姆文，和印度的民族語言印地文寫詩，同樣具有挑戰性，因為必須用馬拉雅拉姆語思考、以馬拉雅拉姆文寫作，和用印地語思考、以印地文寫作。譯者註記，可使讀者理解印地文和馬拉雅拉姆文中所用口語的意義。 《孑然一身》（Alone With Everybody）是我的第一本英譯詩集，從我的馬拉雅拉姆文和印地文詩譯出，由我和詩人兼翻譯家Vijay Nair合作完成。我們嘗試用英文表達詩的意涵，交給讀者，以求掌握原文的精髓。 非常感謝秀威資訊科技股份有限公司，對我的詩顯示信心。感謝李魁賢博士熱心，漢譯拙詩。也感謝我的家人，沒有他們支持，我就一事無成。商多士‧雅列思Santosh Alex書籍簡介《孑然一身》為作者雅列思以馬拉雅拉姆文和印地文寫成，和友人協力翻譯成英文，本書由李魁賢博士漢譯。雅列思認為他用母語書寫，讀者能夠透過翻譯瞭解他的感受，「讀者不一定要同意我的觀點，或對我在詩裡描寫的情境或主題有所回應。但我相信，我的詩有力道讓讀者思考那情境或主題，我認為那是身為詩人的成就。」閱讀他的詩，感受到其中堅韌的生命力與樸質氣息，詩作中包含詩人的純粹情感，「我的詩／不是城市新娘／穿戴珠寶和昂貴莎麗／詩之於我／是鄉村新娘／純潔、謙虛又美麗。」
