全球第一本兼具學理及實務操作的國家公園學～據我所知，到目前為止，全世界還沒有以學理方式建構的「國家公園學」。希望本書的出版，能讓國家公園經營模式成為保護區一種典範，「國家公園學」能成為環境資源保育知識基礎的重要環節。――國立臺灣大學土木工程系教授、前內政部部長　李鴻源也許有人會質疑：國家公園不過就是一個生態保育地區、一個環境教育場所、一個遊憇地點、一個公部門組織經營的領域，有必要發展成一門「國家公園學」嗎？國家公園的經營是跨學科、跨區域、跨種族、跨文化的，它同時包括自然與人文等領域，彼此間環環相扣、相互影響，無法個別處理。全世界的國家公園因為所處的位置、生態環境、歷史背景，都有各自不同的做法及寶貴經驗。本書為全球首見兼融「學術知識」（Knowledge)與「實務操作」（Know-how）的國家公園（含保護區）如何實踐的專書，全書共十四章，不僅進行了不同學科對話，也引入創新論點，例如生態工程與自然解方、全球在地化的國家公園發展方式、夥伴關係與生態旅遊、中國保育哲學的優越性、運用虛擬實境的體驗方式以保護珍貴稀有資源、藉由四種永續行銷方式以行銷國家公園……等。國家公園的發展，貴在承先啟後。期望有更多人參與保護國家公園的行列，共同推動「國家公園系統」發展，行銷國家公園的保育理念，讓國家公園、保護區的美好能夠發酵、成就全球寰宇的美好。

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.

這本文集的主題毋論從大處著眼、或從特殊專題出發，不外是筆者聚焦兩次世紀之際（十九世紀末至二十世紀初葉，二十世紀末至二十一世紀初葉），史學學術風尚變化所作的省思；居中有破、也有立。此中，自然涉及史學與其他學科分分合合的故事。本書所選的十三篇文章，均是思索近年西方史學發展的趨勢，但願對中國史學的開展有所借鑑，甚或助益。要言之，19世紀乃是西方史學的黃金時代，歷史研究取得突破性的進展，以蘭克（Leopold von Ranke, 1795–1886）為首的名家輩出，馳騁西方學界，睥睨一切。1902年德國史家孟森（Theodor Mommsen, 1817–1903）得憑羅馬史的鉅著，獲頒諾貝爾獎的殊榮，便是一例。然而，反諷的是，自此史學的聲望卻從巔峰下墜，難以挽回頹勢。其故，無非世紀之際，新興社會科學的崛起；昔為「學問女王」（the Queen of Knowledge）的史學，驟成眾矢之的，備受挑戰。而史學應付無方，節節敗退，割地賠款乃是常事。甚而，歷史作為一門專業知識，致遭無用之譏。然而人類的活動原是時序的產物，欠缺歷史作為個人或群體記憶的指引，人們難免茫茫然，無所適從。或許如是，二十世紀末葉史學的發展居然峰迴路轉，起了極大的變化；原來失憶時間面向的人文及社會科學，終於覺識到歷史意識的重要，而有了明顯的轉變，進入了人文及社會科學「重新發現歷史」、史學研究眾聲喧嘩的時期。我將此一變化梳理成〈歷史的轉向―二十世紀晚期人文科學歷史意識的再興〉一文，以供學界參考。――黃進興

For the first time in an omnibus edition, this duology tells the tale of a twilight age for magic, as one ancient mage tries to hide the secrets that might destroy the world.It is the twilight of the mages....Only one of these terrifying and mysterious men still remains--the difficult and enigmatic Lord Eldrich. More than one hundred and thirty years of age, but appearing no older than forty, Eldrich dwells in seclusion, his precious knowledge disclosed to no one, his very existence subject to speculation. For motives of his own, he has dedicated his life to eliminating all remaining vestiges of magic in the world.But his work does not go unchallenged: for there are those sworn to preserve the very lore Eldrich is striving to eradicate. Fanatical follows of a long-dead mage-apprentice, the Tellerites will stop at nothing to reclaim the forbidden powers of the magical arts--even if it means braving Eldrich's wrath and descending into the perilous depths of a labyrinthine cave system in

Yet the proof of evolution by natural selection is vast, varied, and magnificent. In this succinct and accessible summary of the facts supporting the theory of natural selection, Jerry A. Coyne dispels common misunderstandings and fears about evolution and clearly confirms the scientific truth that supports this amazing process of change. Weaving together the many threads of modern work in genetics, paleontology, geology, molecular biology, and anatomy that demonstrate the "indelible stamp" of the processes first proposed by Da

【反確定不是不確定，而是反抗確定性陷阱。】為什麼我們愈篤定，社會愈分裂？在這個過度確信的時代，我們最缺少的不是立場，而是有勇氣承認「自己可能錯了」。「每個故事都有三個版本：我的版本、你的版本，還有真相。」當我們掉進「確定性陷阱」時，就會輕易認為那些意見相左的人，如果不是壞（充滿仇恨），就是笨（無知愚蠢）。特別是面對社會與政治議題時，因為自身道德上的優越感，導致人們更加義憤填膺。確定性思維會讓人認為：那些我們最在乎的事情，原因和解方明明就顯而易見。但事實上，從個人選擇到種族、性別等爭議性議題，在道德或倫理上往往極其複雜。當每個人都堅信自己握有真理，只會助長世界更加壁壘分明，最終導致人們苛刻批評，甚至將反對者妖魔化。作者指出，這種「絕對的確定性」會讓人陷入三種思考盲點：•定論謬誤（The Settled Question Fallacy）：把自己的知識視為定論，對某件事深信不疑，自然會將相反觀點視為錯誤，甚至視為威脅，這會讓人封閉探問與對話的可能性。•對等知識謬誤（The Fallacy of Equal Knowledge）：我們天真地假設「只要你讀了同樣的書、知道了同樣的資訊，你就一定會同意我」，卻忘了即使擁有相同的資訊，也會因為個人經歷而有不同的解讀。•已知意圖謬誤（The Fallacy of Known Intent）：當對方反對我們的觀點時，我們不僅覺得是他錯了，甚至否定他的人格，這是忽略了在善與惡之間，也存在著灰色地帶。「唯一真正的智慧，是知道自己一無所知。」──蘇格拉底當我們不再急著審判，放下非黑即白的定見，開始好奇「為什麼你是這樣想？」那道隔絕彼此的高牆才會開始崩塌。我們誤以為自己是透過窗戶看世界，看見了毫無雜質的真相；其實，我們是站在哈哈鏡前，只能看見被信念扭曲後的倒影。願意質疑自身思維，未必會浮現正確答案，卻能幫助我們看見世界的複雜全貌，減少兩極化狀態。本書充滿社會學的洞見，啟發我們鬆動心中那份確信，接納每一種看法都有被提出、檢視與討論的空間。

從一座城市，看見無限可能！一座城市如何重塑知識、驅動創新，甚至改變世界？這是一本關於城市「重生」的深度報導，也是一場以文化與創新為名的「美學與思維革命」記錄。在瞬息萬變的都市浪潮中，大阪的蛻變顯得獨特而溫柔。它不靠激進的政策，亦不靠宏大的建設藍圖，而是仰賴一位關鍵人物長年累月的推動：野村卓也。他是一位橫跨藝術、文化與科技的項目企劃奇才，以「以人為本、跨界合作、知識共創」的理念，重新定義了城市的邊界。野村卓也的故事，是一部從大阪本土走向國際的築夢史。他從修讀法國文學的人文底蘊出發，在大學期間便展現商業敏銳度。之後，他毅然離開大型廣告公司，創立 SUPERSTATION，專注於概念策劃。他的願景遠不止於企業成功，而是將焦點轉向城市更新，堅信城市的蛻變不能僅靠鋼筋水泥，更仰賴文化的灌溉與創新的驅動。從啟動梅田地區「知識之都 Knowledge Capital」的大膽構想，到將貨運火車站轉化為綠色聖地的「Grand Green Osaka」，再到近年的沉浸式文化載體「VS. 計畫」，他以策展者的思維，將藝術、科技與市民生活完美融合，重塑了大阪的城市肌理與國際形象。本書深入探尋野村的內在哲學與實踐方法。作者透過十多年來無數的對話、實地踏查與反覆沉澱，揭示了其推動轉型的核心能力—「4C領導法則」（能預見未來的直覺 Cognitive Intuition、互信可親的溝通能力 Communication、合作共贏的人脈關係 Collaboration、無形的個人魅力 Charisma）。書中更闡述了其獨特的「野村主義」（Nomuraism），揭示了這位「深具時代意識與城市情懷的革新者」如何用最溫柔的力量，為城市注入新價值觀。他的口頭禪：「想到死（死ぬほど考える）」，正是這種堅守與行動力的最佳註腳。為讓故事完整呈現，作者親自訪談了多位關鍵人物，包括已故的前大阪大學校長宮原秀夫先生、歐力士集團高橋豐典先生、Ars Electronica 藝術總監 Gerfried Stocker、以及長期觀察野村工作的台灣創業家Weikalossu 先生。舉世知名的建築師安藤忠雄先生更特別為本書撰寫感言，讚揚野村對「大阪綠化不足」的關注，以及在梅北二期開發中打造「都市中心的巨大森林」的構想。這不僅是野村卓也的個人傳記，更是一份獻給世界各地城市規劃者、企業家與創新者的啟發之書。本書記錄了一個築夢者的願景
