The Hunting of the Snark relates in glittering verse the story of how the Bellman and his eccentric crew, who include a butcher, a baker, a beaver and a tailor, set off in quest of that most mysterious and elusive of creatures: the Snark. In 1959, Tove Jansson, the creator of Moomin Valley and its magical inhabitants, was commissioned to illustrate a Swedish edition of Lewis Carroll's miniature masterpiece. It proved an inspired choice, as the enigmatic charms of Jansson's illustrative style bring to life the beauty and strangeness of Carroll's tale.The minds of two of the greatest children's authors of the past 150 years meet on the page.

Now, for the first time, these beautiful illustrations are matched with Lewis Carroll's original English text, so that readers can encounter this wonderful adventure afresh through t

Equal parts Sapiens, Behave, and Superintelligence, but wholly original in scope, A Brief History of Intelligence offers a paradigm shift for how we understand neuroscience and AI. Artificial intelligence entrepreneur Max Bennett chronicles the five "breakthroughs" in the evolution of human intelligence and reveals what brains of the past can tell us about the AI of tomorrow. In the last decade, capabilities of artificial intelligence that had long been the realm of science fiction have, for the first time, become our reality. AI is now able to produce original art, identify tumors in pictures, and even steer our cars. And yet, large gaps remain in what modern AI systems can achieve--indeed, human brains still easily perform intellectual feats that we can't replicate in AI systems. How is it possible that AI can beat a grandmaster at chess but can't effectively load a dishwasher? As AI entrepreneur Max Bennett compellingly argues, finding the answer requires diving into the billion-yea

顔艾琳《骨皮肉》全新中英國際雙語版「愛情非霜淇淋。你說，也不全然固定或者流動那麼，在這間小小的房裡，空氣中填塞的是什麼？狡黠的你賊賊答我:欲望是甜的，而房間是方糖。因此，我們互相調劑彼此的體味」《骨皮肉》（Bone Skin Flesh）是臺灣詩人顏艾琳的代表作，於1997年首次出版時，便以其對女性特質的坦率探索和一系列情慾詩，在文壇掀起廣泛討論。顏艾琳被譽為臺灣第一位出版一系列情慾詩的女性詩人，她的作品深入挖掘性別與慾望的議題，對讀者、公共論述及當代文學研究產生了深遠影響。這本詩集共分為六個章節，包括：「黑暗溫泉」、「單性情人日」、「超級販賣機」、「空體賦」、「隱隱燃」和「寄給憂鬱的一封信」。詩作充滿有形的質感，不僅描繪了身體與世界的互動，更細膩呈現了慾望、情感、清醒與夢境的紋理。她的詩歌創造了新的世界，或者說，以嶄新的方式讓我們感受這個世界；它們不是輕輕流淌而過，而是「在你之中、在你之上、自你而生」。譯者簡莉芳（Jenn Marie Nunes）將顏艾琳的詩作視為一種「深刻而黏稠的樂趣」，並指出其作品具備「Gurlesque」詩學的特質。這種詩學以滑稽或公然嘲弄的方式展現女性特質，即使冒著怪誕的風險，也要動搖被接受的女性行為和語言基礎。然而，她的詩又超越了典型的「Gurlesque」風格，融入了一種不常傾向的溫柔、龐克式的真誠，以及對女性的崇敬，無論是母親、情人或老婦，甚至她們共享的孤獨與憂鬱。／／／Bone Skin Flesh is the landmark work of Taiwanese poet Yen Ai-Lin. First published in 1997, it drew wide attention for its candid exploration of femininity and its groundbreaking series of erotic poems, making Yen the first female poet in Taiwan to publish such a body of work. Her poetry delves into gender and desire, leaving a lasting impact on readers and contemporary literary discou
