《生命是長期而持續的累積》── 一本給所有人的書暢銷十週年．特別增訂版！「要幸福喔！」大家常常這麼說。但是，幸福是什麼？有了自己最想要的一切就能幸福嗎？《生命是長期而持續的累積》將引領你瞭解你的情感能力、智慧、人品、堅持與勇氣，以及生命中值得珍惜的一切，都在別人看不見、也無從衡量的內心裡！它們都是外在的際遇所無法奪去的，也是巧取豪奪或汲汲營營所無法增益的。所以，一切外在的際遇與得失都不足掛齒「彭老師的文字總讓人心裡寧靜。」網路上的各種評語裡，彭明輝最喜歡這一則。在疫情、經濟與國際關係都讓人心亂如麻的世局裡，希望本書能幫助讀者找到自己生命的重心和寧靜的力量。 一篇文章，三十年來一再被人重複在網路上廣泛地轉貼、流傳。很多人轉貼時沒有篇名，其實彭明輝原來給它的篇名是〈困境與抉擇〉。如果你曾經喜歡過這篇文章，那麼這一本書就是為你寫的。 《生命是長期而持續的累積》原於2012年初出版，旋即成為「誠品選書」，登上博客來年度暢銷書排行榜，以及金石堂「十大最具影響力好書」；緊接著又在次年入選為香港《信報》40週年慶之「40歲前必讀的40本好書」。《信報》刊登的誠品推薦文寫道：「文中的人生智慧猶如一盞明燈，點醒讀者面對生命抉擇的勇氣。」 彭明輝原來想寫一本書留給孫女兒，讓她在高中到研究所階段時可以對人生未來最重要的一個階段有所期待、憧憬，以及值得奮鬥的目標，協助她走出自己年輕時的困惑。 後來他發現身邊許多參十歲左右的年輕人都有「三十歲以前要搞定的十件事」這樣的困擾；也發現有許多年輕人因為對未來茫然而開始流行出國「壯遊」，結果卻只不過是去澳洲當廉價勞工，不見得真的有闊寬自己的人生視野。 還有一些年輕人知道他要寫書，就跟他談他們的困擾。包括：「可不可以只要孩子不要爸」、「好男孩那麼難找，可不可以先結婚再來改變他」等，每個問題他都覺得值得寫。於是，這本書，他也想寫給所有認真地想要把握青春與人生的年輕人，協助他們打開人生的視野，看見二十五到三十五歲最值得做的事，以及年輕時關於人生意義與自我成長的盲點，也協助他們克服三十歲的焦慮。 在眾多年輕人詢問的各種問題中，作者彙整了「生命是長期而持續的累積」、「學業、志業與職業」、「婚禮的祝福」，以及「人生的智慧與陷阱」四大主題，挑選了二十幾個比較重要的議題，針對比較常有的盲點，撰寫了令人深省的文章，希望藉此引導年輕人走出當下社會常見的迷思。

許下願望後，務必讀這本書！ ★全球銷售500萬冊！ ★書店科普暢銷榜逾60週！ ★2012博客來年度暢銷Top 50‧科普類No.1‧博客來上班男性愛讀Top 20 ★《商業周刊》1290期報導！ ★亞馬遜書店讀者讚嘆：「真想給它10顆星！」「這輩子我都會用它！」「對我來說最實用的一本書！」 ★少女凱倫、文森說書、何立安、宋怡慧、林長揚、邱奕霖、洪?、海苔熊、陳沛穎、陳彥博、楊斯棓、劉奕酉──盛讚推薦 意志力的差距， 就是年收入、學業成績、身體狀態、婚姻生活、人際關係好壞的差距。 而且如同肌肉，是可以輕鬆鍛鍊出來的！ 開課時，因為人數過多，連換四次教室的史丹佛?意志力科學?課程， 由健康心理專家凱莉．麥高尼格開講，一位難求。 本書為其內容精華，引導讀者破除意志力的迷思， 無痛鍛造高自制力，建立有益身心健康的習慣， 克服拖延的習性，妥善因應壓力，輕鬆贏得你嚮往的未來。 提升心理素質，強化每天都用得上的意志力！ 史丹佛大學的「意志力科學」課程，是該校最受歡迎的課程之一。2008年第一次開課時，為了容納不斷加選的學生，換了四次教室。有學生每星期從舊金山租車趕來上課；有人上過課之後，戒掉了30年的甜食癮、不再對小孩子發脾氣、開始規律運動。超過八成的學生認為，這門課強化了他們的意志力，改變了他們的人生！ 本書從心理學、經濟學、腦科學和醫學的觀點，揭露人為什麼禁不起誘惑，或一再延宕自己明知該做的事，以及該如何找出抗拒誘惑的力量，並教你像鍛鍊肌肉一樣強化意志力。 想要輕鬆戒癮、抵抗誘惑、成功達標，你會學到： ●意志力並非美德，而是一種生理機制，可以透過冥想、運動、營養和睡眠來改善。 ●意志力不是無限的資源，自制過頭反而不利於健康。 ●誘惑和壓力會劫持大腦的自制系統，但大腦可以透過訓練獲得更強的意志力。 ●破戒的挫敗感所引發的內疚和羞恥會讓人再度屈服於誘惑，但自我寬恕和自我疼惜會增強意志力。 ●放棄控制有時是獲得意志力的唯一途徑。 ●意志力會傳染，身旁的人暴飲暴食、吸菸，你也會受到影響。 不必懸梁刺骨，不用臥薪嘗膽，只要掌握意志力的本質，就可以在該去做的時候積極行動，該拒絕的時候堅定說不。 正如EQ可以改善，意志力也可靠許多方法增強！ ◎累了嗎？光是短暫補眠或好好睡上一晚，就有助提升意志力。 ◎壓力大時請用真正有效的方式紓壓，比如運動、呼吸冥想、聽音樂、與親友相聚，而不是放縱自己吃

福爾摩斯，一個永存你我心中的傳奇人物 一百多年來，倫敦市區的貝克街二二一號之Ｂ，總是源源不斷地收到來自世界各地的信件，要求屋主為其解決疑難雜症，或是商談個人隱私；這幢不起眼的公寓，一年到頭聚集了來自四面八方的旅行者，爭相目睹一位傳奇人物的丰采。這個人就是夏洛克．福爾摩斯──一位英國作家亞瑟．柯南．道爾筆下的推理怪傑，百年來人們心中的「偵探」代名詞。福爾摩斯是十九世紀末英國作家亞瑟．柯南．道爾作品中的一名虛構人物，他首創了「私家顧問偵探」這個行業，並開啟了將「演繹法」用於犯罪偵查的先河。自1887年始，以福爾摩斯為主角的一系列推理故事開始在英國雜誌上連載，很快地風靡了全球，並成為後世推理迷奉為圭臬的偵探小說經典，福爾摩斯這個角色更成了一世紀以來的偵探典型。奠定推理小說形式的不朽名著，一生不可不讀的傳世典藏享譽百年的偵探典型，歷久不衰的推理鉅作帶您體驗日不落帝國的夕照餘暉，見證世紀末倫敦的偵探傳奇 出版動機 儘管問世已逾百年，「福爾摩斯」系列作在推理小說界的地位始終佔有一席之地。這部經典並未逐漸為世人淡忘，反而隨著時代變遷而歷久彌新，一世紀以來，多次成為戲劇、電影的題材，廣受大眾喜愛；2009年，福爾摩斯首度躍上好萊塢大銀幕，並由知名影星小勞勃道尼、裘德洛主演，2011年更推出電影續作，「福爾摩斯」的熱潮再次達到最高點；同時，英國BCC電視台也推出了全新的福爾摩斯影集，將故事由19世紀末搬到了現代英國，以截然不同的觀點詮釋經典，播出後廣受好評。足以證明這部經典即使歷經百年，仍舊屹立不搖，福爾摩斯的傳奇形象早已深植人心，無可撼動。2012年，距福爾摩斯初次登場的《血字的研究》出版以來，已有125個年頭。同時，隨著即將登場的倫敦奧運，英國在各領域的成就再度成為全球關注的焦點。在這值得紀念的歷史性時刻，全球讀者將不可避免地重新緬懷起福爾摩斯這位英國紳士的偉大風範。綜觀坊間各社出版的「福爾摩斯」系列，多有翻譯訛誤、語句不順等缺憾，此外，版本陳舊、編排呆滯，偏離時下讀者的閱覽習慣。有鑑於此，本社深感有必要重新編譯這本不朽經典，並將其以最完美的方式呈現在讀者眼前。我們將原文重新翻譯，並歷經多次校對、潤飾，終於完成了這一部最新的中文譯本，將經典以嶄新的風貌重現。在此，我們誠摯的邀請各位讀者，與我們一同進入這位名偵探的推理世界，體驗柯南．道爾筆下的日不落帝

Protecting designs is complex and diverse; it involves deciding whether to protect them by design law, copyright law, or by both laws. A single protection may be under- or overprotective but two or more can be overprotective if there are no rules regulating the overlap. Legal systems in Europe and abroad have struggled to find the most adequate solution to this problem. This book traces the history of the design/copyright interface of fifteen countries, selected for their diversity in the way they dealt with the interface. It examines how these countries have coped with the problems engendered by the interface, the rules they applied to it over time and the reasons for legislative changes. This analysis reveals the most appropriate rules to regulate the interface at EU and global level and will appeal to academics, practising lawyers, judges, students and policymakers all over the world.
