「為解放而戰的青蛙們，唯有蹲坐在陰暗的半個椰殼底下不動才會失敗。全世界的青蛙團結起來！」 《想像的共同體》作者班納迪克．安德森學術人生自述 是什麼樣的社會、政治、文化與時代背景，孕育、教育並養成了《想像的共同體》（Imagined Communities: Reflections on the Origin and Spread of Nationalism）的作者班納迪克．安德森(Benedict Anderson)？ 班納迪克．安德森終其一生都在挑戰他那個時代的紀律、文化、學術和政治的界限。在《椰殼碗外的人生》（A Life Beyond Boundaries）這本書裡，他記述自己人生中智識形成的歷程，如何迎向寬廣的世界，從中感受探索學習語言的樂趣，以及田野調查的重要性、新左派對全球思維的影響力、教書帶來的滿足感和對世界文學的熱愛。安德森同時在書中敘述一九六五年印尼發生流產政變後，他揭發軍方所扮演的角色，結果遭到蘇哈托政權驅逐出境。此外，他也重溫自己最知名，改變了民族主義研究的著作--《想像的共同體》背後的構思與靈感。 二○一五年安德森修改完本書的校樣後不久，便在爪哇與世長辭，旋即從亞洲湧來大量向他致敬的悼文，顯示安德森的作品將會繼續啟發和鼓舞年輕與年長世代的心靈。 媒體評論 「本書以特有的魅力與文學美感，記述一位當代極受仰慕的學者的智識軌跡。」——古哈(Ramachandra Guha)，《泰唔士報》文學副刊(Times Literary Supplement) 「迷人而低調的回憶錄。作者心酸的表示他對於自己的成就感到多麼幸運。我們都應該感同身受。」——《展望》雜誌(Prospect Magazine) 「安德森是舒適圈的敵人，不論國家、學校或語言皆是如此。他反覆再三的提到泰國和印尼文化的一個意象，也就是一輩子住在半個椰子殼下的青蛙。閱讀安德森的書讓人產生從椰子殼裡探出頭來的感覺。」——《經濟學人》雜誌(Economist) 「安德森的寫作充滿紳士味，仁善，還點綴著笑話——他這種非正式、易閱讀、跨學科的寫作風格一如既往贏得多方喝采。」——《衛報》(Guardian) 「世紀主義的入門書，提供跨越地理、歷史、語言、學科邊界的主張。」——《國家》雜誌(Nation)

A proposal that we think about digital technologies such as machine learning not in terms of artificial intelligence but as artificial communication.Algorithms that work with deep learning and big data are getting so much better at doing so many things that it makes us uncomfortable. How can a device know what our favorite songs are, or what we should write in an email? Have machines become too smart? In Artificial Communication, Elena Esposito argues that drawing this sort of analogy between algorithms and human intelligence is misleading. If machines contribute to social intelligence, it will not be because they have learned how to think like us but because we have learned how to communicate with them. Esposito proposes that we think of “smart” machines not in terms of artificial intelligence but in terms of artificial communication.To do this, we need a concept of communication that can take into account the possibility that a communication partner may be not a human being but an al

本書以一隻與眾不同的撲滿小豬為主角，從一開始就打破「慢慢存錢」的傳統形象。Piggy 一心想快速達成存錢目標，四處搜刮零錢，沙發縫、口袋、洗衣籃，全都不放過，彷彿一台高速運轉的存錢機器。然而，急著前進的 Piggy 卻忘了最重要的事：耐心。他沒讀過撲滿使用手冊，也沒留意塞子是否放好，結果一路掉錢、目標落空。當忙碌與空虛同時出現，Piggy 才慢慢明白，真正的累積不是速度，而是持續與等待。本書以輕快的故事，帶出「慢慢來」的價值，讓孩子在笑聲中，理解存錢與成長其實很相似。Descended from a long line of patient, persistent savers, this piggy bank breaks the mold, flying in fast with a goal to gather cash. He's a supersonic saving machine! When his friends give him his first savings goal, Piggy hits the scene, rallying coins and cash in all the classic spots--from couch cushion to laundry pockets. Go pig or go home! But in his rush to save, Piggy leaves behind his stopper, and forgets to read The Official Bank Handbook, trailing the coins he's collected and failing to meet his savings goals. With his high-speed ways leaving him empty inside, Piggy must come to his cent-ces--reading the handbook, playing it cool, slowly saving, and paying with patience--if he ever wants to hit his goals and live up to the Bank name.
