Nature Helps...

瓶中風土飄浮酵母花的奇幻劇場＆台味下酒菜在葡萄酒的世界裡，釀酒師的名字常被讚頌，但真正的靈魂，其實來自那些肉眼難見的微生物──酵母、乳酸菌、麴菌、醋酸菌。它們在發酵的黑暗裡，將果實化為酒，譜出風味與生命的協奏曲。本書便以這群無形的釀酒者為主角，帶領讀者走進自然酒的神祕宇宙，理解一瓶酒如何承載風土的呼吸與時間的氣味 。從西班牙桑盧卡的酒花（flor）到法國侏羅的薄紗（voile），書中追溯飄浮酵母的歷史、風味與地理變奏，揭示生物培養這項古老技藝如何在當代被自然派釀酒師重新喚醒 。同時也走訪全球釀酒現場──從雪莉區的風土哲學家拉米洛．伊巴涅茲（Ramiro Ibáñez） 、到匈牙利托凱的復興實驗、再到英國與澳洲的自由發酵實驗室 ──呈現一場跨越地域與世代的「酵母復興運動」。在〈台味下酒菜的自然共鳴〉專題內容中，邀集十位台灣主廚，以滷味、鹹粥、炸春捲、黑白切等在地料理與自然酒共演，探索「吃」與「飲」之間的風味共振。這組專題讓自然酒從釀造者的手中，回到日常餐桌，延伸為一場屬於台灣的風土對話。還有散文名家舒國治談〈我喜吃的台式下酒菜〉。在最後兩篇專文中，林裕森以〈生命不可過濾〉提醒我們：真正的自然，不應被濾淨，而應被理解與尊重；葉怡蘭的〈餐桌有酒，我的日常下酒菜〉讓全書從發酵與風土的世界，回到日常餐桌的鹹香與人情。「喝 自然」葡萄酒展的展覽書《喝 自然葡萄酒生活誌》，長年以來記載台灣對自然酒文化的深度書寫與感性觀察，集結全球與在地釀酒師、侍酒師與飲者、料理人的多重視角，記錄自然酒運動的最新風潮與思想實踐，讓每一次開瓶都成為一次回到自然的旅程。

說來蠻好玩的，最近才發現在我寫的文章中，很多篇都以花石、風沙和蟲鳥為題，這在文壇上並不多見，所以突發奇想，選了幾篇與我的經歷有關的文章，讓它們在我生命的溪流裡，如晶瑩多彩的小石子一般訴說我的故事。 我愛自然，花木和我一起成長，沙漠和化石令我深思，蟲鳥給我想像的空間，它們都在我的生命留下深刻的痕跡。這些動物、植物和礦物對於我來說並不是「物」，而是富有靈性和感情的生命，會說我聽得懂的語言，告訴我自然界蘊含的祕密，甚至讓我聯想到人際的關係。它們從我的生命歷程中湧出，與讀者分享它們精彩的故事。 我虔誠地把這第十本書獻給我的讀者，祝福讀者能擁有從沙礫見塵寰，在野花見仙境的慧眼和詩心，並且盼望讀者也能不時停下腳步，如本書的英文書名Echoes of Nature所隱示，在大自然的迴響中找到自己的聲音。

頓悟修證──威音那畔的密語Sudden Enlightenment Cultivation- Message from the Shore of One's True Nature 先悟後修乃禪門正軌，然非漸修無以頓悟，且無頓悟後而不漸修者。學人若欲契入本心，須心法知見清晰，行持穩健，道心堅固，戒行清淨，摒棄善惡諸緣，努力於本參話頭上用心，從朝至暮，不可須臾離。須知大疑大悟，小疑小悟，不疑不悟。直至參破漆桶，身心脫落，方見本來面目。爾後更加努力，依所悟之境，空而覺、覺而空，綿綿密密，二六時中保任涵養，乃有寶燭光天之證也。 縱觀歷代祖師，皆是經過一番鉗錘鍛鍊，不斷參究破執，直待破無始無明、徹悟、契入不生不滅的本性方才自肯。如大慧宗杲禪師偈曰：「桶底脫時大地闊，命根斷處碧潭清，好將一點紅爐雪，散作人間照夜燈。」至此方有安身立命之實地。徹悟後，還是要依據不生不滅的本性去用功，轉識成智，成就方便智，所謂無明分分斷、法身分分證，待功圓果滿，成就佛道，是為菩薩行持。 禪宗祖祖相承，能令法脈不墜，乃因其教法修證可驗證、可重複。學人倘能依教奉行，必不負如來，不負己靈。

From former UK Children's Laureate Joseph Coelho comes an extraordinary collection of tales--each one illustrated by a different artist, and each just ten words long. Is it possible to tell a tale of love using just ten words? The answer is an enthusiastic yes. And when those words are joined by illustrations from twenty top creators, the results can be stunning. In this unique compendium designed to spark the imagination, Joseph Coelho brings us cherished moments between siblings, worlds where nature blooms and heals, touching tales of beloved pets, and more. Each ten-word tale has been paired with one of the finest illustrators working today, among them Jon Klassen, Jarvis, Bob Graham, Myo Yim, Victoria Turnbull, and Ken Wilson-Max. Together the words and pictures set up a space for creativity as young readers imagine how the story might unravel--and are inspired to pen a ten-word tiny tale of their own.

系統性地定期評估物種滅絕風險對於制定保育行動至關重要，尤其是分類學、威脅過程和研究的持續進展更凸顯了定期重新評估的必要性。本報告為臺灣第2 次依據國際自然保育聯盟(International Union for Conservation of Nature, IUCN) 建議類別與標準對所有臺灣兩棲類動物進行國家兩棲類紅皮書名錄評估。本次報告中納入評估候選的兩棲類共有43種，其中6 種被評定為不適用(Not Applicable) 於區域評估，計有37 種兩棲類進入後續評估流程。在臺灣國家受脅(Nationally Threatened) 兩棲類中，2 種屬於國家極危(NationallyCritical) 類別，6種屬於國家瀕危(Nationally Endangered) 類別，3種屬於國家易危(NationallyVulnerable) 類別，以上11 種受脅物種占本次所有評估兩棲類種數的29.7%。其餘26 種兩棲類中，6 種屬於國家接近受脅(Nationally Near-threatened) 類別，20 種屬於國家暫無危機(Nationally Least Concern) 類別。本報告相較於2017 年的臺灣兩棲類紅皮書名錄新增了周氏樹蛙與太田樹蛙，另有4 種原屬於資料不足類別，已重新評定於其他紅皮書類別中。此外，有2 種因滅絕風險提高而提升其紅皮書類別，另1 種則因滅絕風險減輕而降低其類別。未來仍需持續多方評估，以闡明這些紅皮書類別的變動是來自該物種在不同時期所蒐集到生態背景資訊的落差，或是真實威脅狀態有所改變的結果。

心理學是對行為和心理歷程的科學研究，它涵蓋的範圍很廣，從人類的身體功能、大腦機制、神經結構，直至記憶、思維、智能成長、認知歷程，以迄於動機、情緒、人際關係及心理病理等。有鑒於心理學是研究人性(human nature)的科學，各個大學幾乎都將心理學列入通識課程，視為任何知識分子在自身專業之外所必備的人文素養。本書試圖以簡明的粗線條，向讀者介紹心理學的基本知識、基本門派，以及現代心理學發展的基本脈絡。在編排上採取圖解的方式，把複雜的概念化約為簡易的關係圖、樹狀圖、流程圖甚至漫畫圖，方便讀者兩邊對照內容，以收專業、易懂而易記之效。

Sibert MedalFollow a blue whale’s enormous body to the bottom of the ocean, where it sets the stage for a bustling new ecosystem to flourish.All living things must one day die, and Earth’s largest creature, the majestic blue whale, is no exception. But in nature, death is never a true ending. When this whale closes her eyes for the last time in her 90-year life, a process known as whale fall is just beginning. Her body will float to the surface, then slowly sink through the deep; from inflated behemoth to clean-picked skeleton, it will offer food and shelter at each stage to a vast diversity of organisms, over the course of a century and beyond. Caldecott Medalist Jason Chin’s astonishing artwork enriches and amplifies engaging, well-researched text by Bill Nye the Science Guy writer Lynn Brunelle. Youn

Cook Prize-winning author Jordan Scott's luminously-illustrated love story of a girl growing up in the shadow of a glacier that's always there to listen. Angela listened to the glacier; the glacier listened to Angela. As soon as she's born, Angela's father introduces her to her glacier. He carries her on his back up the icy expanse as the wind makes music of the snow and the water underneath. Over time, Angela gets big enough to walk beside him, and then, to go alone. She tells her glacier everything, and it answers. But then, life gets busy. Angela's days fill up with school, homework, violin and soccer and friends. Until one day, Angela's heart doesn't sound right anymore. Luckily, Angela's dad is there to remind her what she needs: a visit to her ancient icy friend. From the award-winning author of I Talk Like a River, Angela's Glacier is a moving story about growing up without losing yourself, loving nature, and allowing it to love you in return.

★ 探討「生物設計×人工智慧」如何重塑建築與城市未來★ 從都市微生物到地質尺度，拓展設計的時間與空間想像★ 結合實務案例與學術研究，提出設計作為「共生系統」的全新觀點在人工智慧與氣候危機交織的當代，設計的角色正快速轉變。本書《Biodesign in the Age of Artificial Intelligence: Deep Green》由創新設計團隊 ecoLogicStudio 主導，延續其前作《Systemic Architecture》，進一步提出「設計智慧」不僅屬於數位領域，也深植於生物系統之中。全書分為兩大部分：第一部分「PhotoSynthetica™」聚焦於都市尺度的應用，透過介入城市微生物生態系，發展能即時回應環境的設計方案；第二部分「Deep Green」則將視野擴展至更宏觀的時空尺度，探索合成地景與長時間演化過程，將設計視為一種影響地理與地質的力量。作者結合於 University of Innsbruck 與 UCL Bartlett School of Architecture 的研究成果，提出設計應被理解為一種延伸的認知介面——一個具有感知能力、能與地球生命系統共演化的存在。在無法簡單「逆轉」氣候變遷的現實下，本書主張我們應建立新的正向變化動能，讓建築與設計成為維繫地球美感與生命力的重要角色。這不僅是一本關於未來設計的書，更是一份重新思考人類、科技與自然關係的深刻提案。Biodesign in the Age of Artificial Intelligence: Deep Green investigates the potential of nature-based technology for shaping the evolution of contemporary architecture and design. It takes on the now pervasive topic of design intelligence, extending its definition to encompass both biological and digital realms.As in their first title, Systemic Architecture: Operating Manual for the Se
