2021年4月30日出版的英國《經濟學人》期刊（The Economist）以聳動標題：〈臺灣是世界上最危險的地方〉（The most dangerous place on Earth）作為封面，意味著當前的臺海情勢暗潮洶湧。然而，1949年至1950年中華民國政府剛退到臺灣，百廢待舉、內外交困，而中共正積極準備攻臺時，完全孤立的臺灣情勢才是真正危險。 ＊從軍事外交來看1949年政府遷臺後的危機與轉機 ＊深入探討大陳江浙反共救國軍與一江山戰役 1949年底政府從四川遷臺，在1950年前半，南澳島、東山島、海南島失守，嵊泗列島、舟山群島自動撤退，廣東海面萬山群島戰役開打。相對於平靜多年的現在，當時在韓戰爆發之前，美國、蘇聯、中共三方的政策演化與彼此互動關係，都讓中華民國政府能否守住臺灣，劃了一個大大的問號。 韓戰爆發以後，軍事與外交局勢轉變，國軍在沿海島嶼不但固守，也有數次突擊行動，踏出反攻大陸的第一步。 從1949年後半的大遷徙，到1955年《中美共同防禦條約》生效，短短五、六年的關鍵年代中，中華民國政府能夠在臺灣、澎湖、金門、馬祖站穩，並且奠定了後來發展的基礎，不論從海峽兩岸或是國際情勢的發展來看，軍事和外交的因素都扮演了最重要的角色。 回顧1950年代前期的世局，是美國和蘇聯所分別領導的民主和共產國家間的冷戰和熱戰交互進行的時代，也 是兩岸不斷兵戎相見的時代。其中對中華民國生存發展影響最大的，首推中共的作為和美國的對華政策。中共毛澤東政權在那關鍵年代，對內推動無產階級專政的仇恨統治，使得許多對它有期待的人民失望、甚至轉而反對，而它在國外向蘇聯史達林政府亦步亦趨地學習、徹底進行對蘇聯「一邊倒」的政策，則冷卻了美國與之建立關係的期望。 美國原來在中國內戰中已經決定袖手，有人甚至準備接受中共占領臺灣，卻因為中共與蘇聯結盟，正式對史達林臣服，讓蘇聯勢力直入東亞和南海，因此考慮改變對臺灣的政策；接著韓戰的突然發生，顯示共產集團勢力不斷對外擴展，於是決定介入臺海。史達林、金日成和毛澤東的決策和美國的因應，反而形成了中華民國在臺灣復興的契機。 韓戰中止之後，中共立即增兵沿海，企圖攻略浙東沿海島嶼，作為再進犯金門以及臺灣的第一步，與國軍不斷進行海空交戰。最後在1955年1月，共軍以最先進的裝備、十餘倍的三軍兵力、壓倒式的絕對優勢，攻下了浙江外海大陳列

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Power of Habit, an investigation of what makes conversations work, and how we can all learn to be supercommunicators at work and in our livesThe right conversation, at the right moment, can change everything.We all know people who seem capable of connecting with anyone. They are the ones we turn to for advice, who ask the best questions—but who are also able to hear what goes unsaid, what we are really trying to say.Why are these people so good at connecting? And what can they tell us about how communication works?Supercommunicators, Charles Duhigg argues, understand—some by intuition, some by hard-won experience—that there is a science to how human beings connect. They understand that every time we speak to someone, we’re actually engaging in one of three conversations: What is this really about? How do we feel? And, Who are we? They know the importance of identifying what kind of conversation we’re having, and then matching it, so tha

'An acerbic, compelling and always accessible account of how opium corrupted the world' TLS'The writing is sublime, the research thorough, the eye for story superb' Sunday TelegraphWhen Amitav Ghosh began the research for his monumental cycle of novels the Ibis Trilogy, he was startled to find how the lives of the 19th century sailors and soldiers he wrote of were dictated not only by the currents of the Indian Ocean, but also by the precious commodity carried in enormous quantities on those currents: opium. Most surprising of all, however, was the discovery that his own identity and family history was swept up in the story.Smoke and Ashes is at once a travelogue, memoir and a history, drawing on decades of archival research. In it, Ghosh traces the transformative effect the opium trade had on Britain, India, and China, as well as the world at large.The trade was engineered by the British Empire, which exported Indian opium to sell to China and redress their great trade imbalance, and
