Field Sampling

在本書中，好萊塢不再只是造夢工廠，而是一個高度自我保護、彼此勾連的封閉體系。作者以犀利筆法，描寫明星如何在金錢、崇拜與媒體放大的環境中，逐漸失去自我節制。書中涵蓋兒童教養、成癮文化、政治表態與網路輿論等面向，呈現娛樂產業與美國流行文化之間的相互影響。閱讀過程充滿震撼與諷刺感，也促使讀者反思：當名人被視為道德指標，社會究竟付出了什麼代價。Hollywood, Interrupted is a sometimes frightening, occasionally sad, and frequently hysterical odyssey into the darkest realms of showbiz pathology, the endless stream of meltdowns and flameouts, and the inexplicable behavior on the part of show business personalities.Charting celebrities from rehab to retox, to jails, cults, institutions, near-death experiences and the Democratic Party, Hollywood, Interrupted takes readers on a surreal field trip into the amoral belly of the entertainment industry. Each chapter ― covering topics including warped Hollywood child-rearing, bad medicine, hypocritical political maneuvering and the complicit media ― delivers a meticulously researched, interview-infused, attitude heavy dispatch which analyzes and deconstructs the myths created by the celebrities themselves.Celebrities somehow

Based drawing from extensive interviews with client executives, Making Rain offers a series of provocative insights on how to shed the expert-for-hire label and develop long-term advisory relationships. Exploding the popular myth of the "Rainmaker," a dated and dysfunctional figure that clients no longer welcome, Andrew Sobel argues that any professional can learn to "make rain" on an ongoing basis with existing clients by developing a special set of skills, attitudes, and strategies. These innovative tips and techniques from a recognized leader in the field of professional services will enable any consultant, salesperson, or service professional to create enduring client loyalty.

The first overview of sampling for archaeologists for over twenty years, this manual offers a comprehensive account of the applications of statistical sampling theory which are essential to modern archaeological practice at a range of scales, from the regional to the microscopic. Bringing archaeologists up to date with an aspect of their work which is often misunderstood, it includes a discussion of the relevance of sampling theory to archaeological interpretation, and considers its fundamental place in fieldwork and post-excavation study. It demonstrates the vast range of techniques that are available, only some of which are widely used by archaeologists. A section on statistical theory also reviews latest developments in the field, and the formal mathematics is available in an appendix, cross-referenced with the main text.

「那不是迴力鏢，而是一束金屬捆綁線，這就是在養牛田裡，有時候我們用來相互表達關愛的方式。」 《迴力鏢》（Boomerang）是一本中英文對照詩選，內含譯者詳盡的評述和七十首選自詩人教授柯瑞．布朗（Cory Brown）的五本英文詩集，以及新近尚未結集的詩稿，提供國內外讀者一個雙語並置的閱讀櫥窗。詩人評論家竇兒惕（Edward A. Dougherty）說：「布朗用形式這個籠子來關鎖內容這頭動物，創造詩的張力來表達日常或嚴肅的題材，是美國詩壇少有的成就。」 布朗熟稔並善用各類詩體。面對嚴肅題材，他不忌援用古典十四行體，仿但丁《神曲》的〈地獄〉、〈煉獄〉、〈天堂〉三階段結構，創作了新冠疫情年代的詩章《漫長的向上慢爬：新冠病毒年》（A Long Slow Climb: The Year of COVID），謂唯有「愛」才是人類面對自然逆境和生死時的處方。至於日常生活主題，他適情採用「即席率性」章法、後現代的「漫遊和講話」風格和「一視野，多焦點」的敘述，搭配美式俳句與散文的形式，以揶揄或批判的口吻，呈現知性的觀察與人文的關懷，並以「反芻過程」的方法來挖掘記憶礦脈。 布朗教授曾任紐約綺色佳學院（Ithaca College）寫作系主任，與詩人亞蒙斯（Archie Ammons）、摩根（Robert Morgan）及詩壇祭酒艾敘伯里（John Ashbery）時相過從。1988年布朗以詩集《一道暖流》（A Warm Trend）獲 Swallow’s Tale Poetry Award，2025年以《我母親的雙手》（My Mother’s Hands）入選 Finishing Line Press 詩歌賽，前後近四十年創作不懈，見證了他詩藝精湛的持續與詩思深入的細微。“It is not a boomerang but a bundle of baling wire and it’s how we send our love to one another sometimes in the field.” This collection represents over forty years of Cory Brown’s poetry, in a bilingual edition translated by Taiwanese poet Ruey-shan Sandy

資安大師 Marc Hornbeek 結合數十年經驗，以 AI 驅動「智慧化持續安全」！ 告別破碎且被動的舊式防線，運用 AI 與持續化策略，打造「自動化且具備高度適應性」的整體安全框架。確保資安無縫嵌入開發、測試與運維的每一環節，建構起隨威脅演進、能主動防禦的數位堡壘。 【來自第一線技術領袖的高度推崇】 「這是一本必讀的藍圖，透過AI整合DevOps與SecOps，以實現真正的持續安全性。」 ―― Jimmy Xu，Cycode Field CTO 「本書提供了深刻的見解，說明如何在不斷演變的數位環境中，利用AI驅動的策略來形塑安全性的未來。」 ―― Debashis Bhattacharyya，Opus Technologies總監 「成功的組織將是那些能夠在其產品和服務的整個生命週期中，嵌入AI與持續安全方法的組織。」 ―― Victorio Mosso Zempoalteca，Analytica MTY執行長兼創辦人 隨著AI技術被網路犯罪分子所掌握，傳統的安全控制和應變機制正迅速走向過時。智慧化持續安全（ICS）協助組織與對手正面交鋒，以一套整合了整個軟體生命週期安全性的綜合策略，取代過時的防禦措施。 作者Marc Hornbeek概述了ICS的原則、策略和真實世界的實作，包括如何打破DevSecOps和SecOps之間的孤島、如何測量和最佳化安全有效性，以及AI如何革新從安全維運到合規遵循的一切。資安專業人員、DevOps工程師、IT領導者和決策者將學習如何邁向具備適應性、能夠自我修復的防禦措施，以跟上新興風險的步伐。 • 使安全策略與組織目標保持一致 • 在跨團隊中實作AI輔助的持續安全 • 選擇並整合AI驅動的工具，用於弱點偵測、自動化合規檢查和即時事件回應 • 從被動式安全轉型為主動式安全，以持續適應新湧現的威脅 • 應用最佳實務來緩解風險並避免資料外洩

「別迷信，去解碼。」這本書不教你迷信，它教你解讀宇宙的原始碼。讓你看懂命運的本質，不需要花大錢改命，因為你自己，就是最強的調頻師。 如果你以為命運是寫在生死簿上，那你就錯了。它其實是寫在天體運行的軌道與宇宙能量的波動裡。了然山人老師 2026 年度最新力作――《玄學的盡頭是科學》。一名擁有工程背景的命理專家，如何用「物理學」與「場論」拆解太極、太歲與運氣的真相？這不是玄學，這是你從未聽過的人生解碼報告。 我們生活在浩瀚的宇宙中，而這個宇宙充滿了肉眼看不見的「能量場」（Field）――包括電磁場、引力波以及天體運行所帶來的各種頻率波動。這些能量場就像是包裹著我們的「海水」，因為我們身在其中，所以我們從未真正察覺到它的存在。 在我們的一生中，有時候會覺得「順風順水」，做什麼都容易成功，遇到的人都是貴人；有時候卻覺得「衰運纏身」，連喝水都會塞牙縫，所有倒楣事接踵而來。 過去，我們把這些難以解釋的起伏稱為「命運」或「運氣」，並習慣將其歸咎於鬼神、業障或是老天的考驗。我們就像那條在逆流中掙扎的魚，以為是神明在降下懲罰。 但如果我們換上工程師與物理學的視角，真相其實無比清晰：所謂的「運氣好壞」，不過是我們遇上了宇宙能量場中的「洋流」。 運氣，是能量的「干涉」與「效率」。 當天體運行（例如木星的公轉）產生了特定的引力波，這些波動會在宇宙這片汪洋中形成巨大的「能量洋流」。 當你的個人能量頻率，與當下的宇宙洋流方向一致時：在物理學上，這被稱為「建設性干涉」。兩股波峰疊加，能量倍增。這就是我們俗稱的「好運」或「順流」。 當你的個人能量頻率，與宇宙洋流產生180 度的對撞時：這就是物理學上的「破壞性干涉」，也是傳統命理中常說的「沖」。能量互相抵消，效率歸零，你自然會感到諸事不順、也就是遇到了「逆流」。 吉凶禍福，從來都不是神明的道德審判，它只是純粹的「能量影響效率」。 拿回你的人生說明書：從盲游到導航。 這正是《玄學的盡頭是科學》這本書想要傳達的核心真相。諮詢方式： bny9779@gmail.com

Matched sampling is often used to help assess the causal effect of some exposure or intervention, typically when randomized experiments are not available or cannot be conducted. This book presents a selection of Donald B. Rubin's research articles on matched sampling, from the early 1970s, when the author was one of the major researchers involved in establishing the field, to recent contributions to this now extremely active area. The articles include fundamental theoretical studies that have become classics, important extensions, and real applications that range from breast cancer treatments to tobacco litigation to studies of criminal tendencies. They are organized into seven parts, each with an introduction by the author that provides historical and personal context and discusses the relevance of the work today. A concluding essay offers advice to investigators designing observational studies. The book provides an accessible introduction to the study of matched sampling and will be
