吳明益專文推薦。寫詩、也寫散文的作家阿布；在精神科診療病人，並返看自我的醫者阿布。內容簡介：吳明益推薦：「一個能思考死亡，而不只是對抗死亡的醫師，也有可能接近哲學家與詩人的。」我們永遠無法親身經歷另一個人的苦痛，只能試著接近。［這世界像極了一艘巨大的「瘋人船」，在正常與瘋狂之間，飄蕩。］有時我會錯亂，究竟病房裡面是精神疾患的世界，還是現實社會反而是妄想與幻覺的樂園？精神科病房永遠大門深鎖。似乎在這裡時間有不同的流向。或許鐵門的存在不是防止他們外出擾亂這個世界，而是讓這個粗暴的世界不至於輕易地傷害到他們。／你有一指幅的自由，但當你抵抗，拘束只會愈來愈緊。面對約束帶最好的方式是全身放鬆。／用肉體的傷驅除心裡的痛，好像生活到了最低最底，只剩下自己的痛自己的血，是整個失控的生命裡，唯一能掌握的東西。精神科醫師似路又似橋，承接著眾多「卡住」的微渺心靈，無法代其受苦，但願盡己所有地貼近。傾力收小自己，將他人的地獄融成了自己，清晰聽見病徵在泣訴，這是身為醫者對患者的虔誠敬意，也是一名寫作者之於苦痛經驗的溫柔自省。還是住院醫師時，曾聽學姊說：「精神科的訓練能給你一次機會，讓自己成為更好的人。」成為主治大夫的自己，如今有變得更好嗎？光探入了裂隙，答案就在那裡。本書特色：◎吳明益推薦：「萬物都有裂縫，那是光照進來的契機。（There is a crack in everything.That's how the light gets in.）這是加拿大歌手柯恩（Leonard Cohen）的歌詞，當然，對我來說也是詩。阿布以此為標題，寫了從受苦者、醫學知識、醫師不同角度所觀看的精神問題。阿布的文字不再像過去一樣單純地熱情，而多了節制以及博雜的援引。那些援引讓身為讀者的我，有時迷惘，有時若有啟發，有時則純然地沉浸在他的敘事和那些病徵發生的可能原因裡。」（──節錄自推薦序〈作為凡人，聆聽凡人〉）◎「有時候覺得好像有兩個我，鏡像似的。一個是醫學中心裡的醫師，一個是穴居的寫作者。」──寫詩、也寫散文的作家阿布；在精神科診療病人，並返看自我的醫者阿布……萬物皆有裂縫，他細細探入，那光照進的地方。◎我們永遠無法親身經歷另一個人的苦痛，只能試著接近。學習將自己的腳縮小、變形，塞進那雙自己不曾穿過、但另一個人必須天天面對的破鞋，學習同理他鞋子裡的小石頭與腳臭。這裡不是最後一站，多數人只是在此換車，休息

博客來語言學習類「年度之最」，熱銷10年全新改版！教你掌握讀英文最基本、最重要，卻最多人忽略的觀念：「一個句子只有一個主詞、一個動詞！」觀念正確，就算句子再複雜也能一看就懂！「單字都看得懂，連在一起變成句子就一片混亂！」「看完句子抓不到重點，只好從頭再看一次，花了很多時間！」「想搞清楚句子裡的每個單字和文法，結果讀得很慢，也愈來愈沒興趣！」本書作者黃玟君老師於國立台灣科技大學應用外語系任教多年，時常擔任國高中英語教學研習講師、受邀為企業開設英語進修課程。她觀察到，國人明明學了英文多年，卻還會有上述的困擾，多是出在學習觀念不正確，以至於出現「不斷背單字、卻看不懂句子」的情況。本書的目標就是破解這些英文閱讀困境，從最核心的觀念「一個句子，只有一個主詞、一個動詞」出發，不論句子多長、多複雜，都可以運用這個原則，快速讀懂句子的重點，從此改造你的閱讀力！一個句子只有一個主詞、一個動詞！每個英文句子都只能有一個主詞、一個動詞，其餘內容都是用於修飾、補充的「廣義形容詞」。舉例來說：The girl in a beautiful red dress likes me.The girl wearing a beautiful red dress with a lovely smile likes me.這兩個句子的主詞都是The girl（那個女孩）、動詞是likes（喜歡），雖然兩句各有修飾「女孩」的內容，但重點都是：The girl likes me.（那個女孩喜歡我。）只要找出句子的「主詞 + 動詞」，就已經掌握了句子的意思，閱讀內容再多、句型再變化也不怕！跳躍式閱讀，英文別再逐字看！聰明的讀英文方式，不是由左而右一字一字前進的「線性閱讀」，而是「跳躍式閱讀」──聚焦句子的主詞、動詞，迅速掌握重點。你可以現在試試看：After 10 years on the run, the criminal was apprehended by the police during a routine traffic stop.（逍遙法外十年的罪犯在警方一次例行的交通臨檢中被逮捕。）如果你快速掃過這個句子，能夠一眼看出主詞是the criminal（罪犯）、動詞是was apprehended（被逮捕），就算沒有細讀每個字，也會立刻知道：「有個罪犯被逮捕了！」用這樣的方式熟練跳躍式閱讀，聚焦重

提到德國，你一定知道： ．賓士、BMW、保時捷、愛迪達、RIMOWA行李箱、朗格錶……都是德國品牌； ．哲學家尼采、詩人歌德、音樂家貝多芬和巴哈都出生於德國； ．格林童話故事的故鄉（發源地）在這裡； ．足球隊曾奪得4次世界盃冠軍； ．德國啤酒好喝、豬腳美味、香腸種類超過1500種、做黑森林蛋糕得依照國家標準…… 但你很可能不知道：在英國、法國完成工業革命時，德國還是個農業國， 現在享譽世界的「德國製造」（Made in Germany） 曾是帶有侮辱性的符號， 是什麼原因翻轉了「德國製造」？ 資深媒體人、歐洲深度研究者葉克飛， 多年來走訪德國數次，找到了德國人嚴謹做事卻從不加班的竅門。 ◎對工業的敬畏，成就了德國製造 在德國，組裝一輛保時捷只需9小時，但檢測和測試需5天，出廠則要幾個月； 朗格的鐘錶師至少須學3到7年才可參與製作，每個錶的製作時間最少6個月； 德國刀具的工序起碼四十多道；製作一個行李箱需用兩百多個零件； 就連個小香腸、黑森林蛋糕，也有嚴格的標準和生產流程。 這就是聞名世界的「工匠精神」。怎麼辦到？ 多數德國企業不貸款、不上市，專注於技術， 所以這裡有兩千多個世界級品牌和一千多個世界隱形冠軍 世界上有四個頂級的櫥櫃品牌，全部出自德國， 連英國女王的廚房也只用德國品牌。 ◎不爭一流，卻成為真正一流的人才培養 德國的哲學和科學如此發達，與古老而穩定的大學體系密不可分， 這裡的教育是免費的，對於外國留學生也一樣， 但他們寬進嚴出，申請學校很容易，畢業卻很難。 這裡很少綜合性院校，多數都是應用科學大學， 所以在世界排名上相對吃虧， 但也讓德國理工科大學，成為科技業的長春藤。 一個人口八千萬的國家， 竟有兩千多個世界級品牌和一千多個世界隱形冠軍， 從來不應酬、每天一定準時下班回家吃晚餐的德國人，怎麼辦到？

本書在自然與身體感受性的脈絡下，思考禮儀中的象徵在修身及教化中所扮演的關鍵地位。本書溯源到文化源頭的先秦、兩漢時期，說明自然節氣如何影響身體經驗，在對天道的體察中，從而形構物的象徵與身體隱喻。本書透過秦漢禮儀中象徵的細部分析，說明象徵符號與自我的形構、身心轉化，人我關係定義以及倫理的秩序有密不可分的關係。「象徵」既反映著自然風土與物之質性，同時也反映著不同的地方文化所形成的文化心理及身體經驗。修身與教化的理想在體察自然節氣和風土、透過象徵以調節人情中亦得到實踐。This book investigates the key role of symbolism in self-cultivation and moral education in the context of nature and bodily senses. Through detailed analysis of symbols in the etiquette of Qin and Han China, this book illustrates the inseparable relationship between symbolism and self-construction, transformation of body and mind, the definition of human-self relationship, and the order of ethics. “Symbol” not only reflects the landscapes and things, but also reflects the cultural psychology and physical experience formed by different local knowledge. The practice of self-cultivation and morality is also in the process of interpreting nature and regulating human sentiments through symbols.

Now a major Netflix film by Jane Camption, starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Kirsten Dunst: Thomas Savage's acclaimed Western is "a pitch-perfect evocation of time and place" (Boston Globe) for fans of East of Eden and Brokeback Mountain. Set in the wide-open spaces of the American West, The Power of the Dog is a stunning story of domestic tyranny, brutal masculinity, and thrilling defiance from one of the most powerful and distinctive voices in American literature. The novel tells the story of two brothers -- one magnetic but cruel, the other gentle and quiet -- and of the woman and young boy, mother and son, whose arrival on the brothers' ranch shatters an already tenuous peace. From the novel's startling first paragraph to its very last word, Thomas Savage's voice -- and the intense passion of his characters -- holds readers in thrall. "Gripping and powerful...A work of literary art." --Annie Proulx, from her afterword
