A funny, fiercely intelligent and moving collection exploring marriage, friendship, fame, and artistic ambition—including a story that revisits the main character from Curtis Sittenfeld’s iconic novel Prep—from the New York Times bestselling author of Eligible and Romantic Comedy.In her second story collection, Sittenfeld shows why she’s as beloved for her short fiction as she is for her novels. In these dazzling stories, she conjures up characters so real that they seem like old friends, laying bare the moments when their long held beliefs are overturned.In “The Patron Saints of Middle Age,” a woman visits two friends she hasn’t seen since her divorce. In “A for Alone,” a married middle-aged artist embarks on a creative project intended to disprove the so-called Mike Pence Rule, which suggests that women and men can’t spend time alone without lusting after each other. And in “Lost but Not Forgotten,” Sittenfeld gives readers of her novel, Prep, a window into the world of her beloved c

Volume IThe Silk Manuscripts from Zidanku, Changsha (Hunan), are the only pre-Imperial Chinese manuscripts on silk found to-date. Dating to the turn from the 4th to the 3rd centuries BC (Late Warring States period), they contain several texts concerning basic cosmological concepts, including one manuscript (Manuscript 1) with a diagrammatic arrangement and surrounded by pictorial illustrations. As such, they constitute a unique source of information complementing and going beyond what is known from transmitted texts.This is the first in a two-volume monograph on the Zidanku manuscripts, reflecting almost four decades of research by Professor Li Ling of Peking University. While the philological study and translation of the manuscript texts is the subject of Volume Two, this first volume presents the archaeological context andhistory of transmission of the physical manuscripts. It records how they were taken from their original place of interment in the 1940s and taken to the United Stat

The transcription is accompanied by comprehensive annotations, with full paleographic and philological analysis of the texts. An English translation of the texts has been added by Professor Donald Harper. For the first time, the Zidanku Silk Manuscripts can be

Most histories of Hong Kong begin with the arrival of the British, and only incidentally mention the precolonial eras. In this book, Patrick Hase, one of the leaders in the field, provides an important addition to the history of Hong Kong and the Pearl River Delta region, covering topics such as Chinese ethnicity, commerce, port-towns, and squatting. It is a truly excellent work that will interest historians, anthropologists, and social scientists.—James L. WatsonFairbank Professor of Chinese Society and Anthropology Emeritus,Harvard UniversityThis book, an historical and archaeological portrayal of Hong Kong market villages across the territory, depicts how Hong Kong evolved not through chronicles of emperors and governors but through the ups and downs of different centres of rural life over the centuries. It belongs beyond the bookshelves of historians and archaeologists—anyone wandering the streets of Hong Kong neighbourhoods today wondering “how did this place get to be here?” wil

How did lay people in old China save their lives when dealing with acute or chronic health issues? Conventional medicine was costly and might not have been an option for many. Instead, people in villages and towns relied on remedies drawn from a woodblock-printed illustrated booklet called the Seventy-Two Therapies, first published in 1847. The goal of this book is to foster an appreciation of China’s long tradition of folk remedies. Each folk remedy is illustrated by a page from the circa 1860s woodblock edition of the Seventy-Two Therapies which the author used for translation. He also added a historical and interpretive analysis to expand on each therapy and to place it in the context of contemporary thinking, aiming at academics and readers interested in the everyday lives of common people in pre-1950 China, and in the folk medicine wisdom inherited from the past. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- “The 72 specific disease

Instead, as she recently discovered, she tumbled down to the earth many years ago as the last fallen star. Riley Oh also wasn’t born to be a witch. Like, at all—even her status as a divine celestial being comes with zilch in the magical powers department. And Riley Oh definitely wasn’t born to be a leader. But now the entire magical community thinks she and her soul-twin, Dahl, are meant to lead the world into the Age of the Final Eclipse (or whatever it is that the Haetae keeps saying they’re “destined” to do). Greeeat. But ever since Riley killed the Cave Bear Goddess, she’s been a bit pre-occupied with one thing: waiting for the goddess’s sisters to get their revenge.

規畫人生、設定目標、執行計畫，無論是生活或工作，各種領域都能用得到！ 「不曉得該如何設定目標、擬定計畫。」「即使有計畫，卻無法順利執行。」可能你也遇過這種情形，這時候，你需要曼陀羅表格。 曼陀羅表格分為3×3的九宮格，以及從九宮格延伸的9×9表格，正中央通常會寫這張曼陀羅表格的主題，旁邊填入達成主題的實踐方法。曼陀羅表格是松村寧雄先生在1979年開發出來的，只要將想到的事情填入，就能幫助人們達成任何目標。 知名的職棒選手大谷翔平高中時期，就親手寫下了9×9曼陀羅表格，正中央寫的是「八個球團第一指名」，為了達成這個目標，大谷在這個主題的周圍，寫下實踐方法，分別是：運氣、心理、控球、球速160公里、人品、鍛練體格、球勁和變化球，接著再將這八個領域都再展開成九宮格，逐一寫下方法，讓行動化為習慣，進而實現目標。 本書作者松田充弘的人生，也是因為和曼陀羅表格開發者松村寧雄相遇而改變。松田認為，曼陀羅表格除了達成目標、實現夢想，也能當成創意發想的工具使用，從中可以學到了解自我、經營人生的方法。松田顛覆PDCA（Plan規畫→Do執行→Check查核→Action行動）的觀念，鼓勵我們改以CAPD（Check查核→Action行動→Plan規畫→Do執行）的方式使用曼陀羅表格。 在書中，松田分享「什麼是世界級人物都在應用的曼陀羅表格？」「大谷翔平的曼陀羅表格有什麼厲害的地方？」「曼陀羅表格為什麼是九宮格？」並且將曼陀羅表格結合提問，開發出「魔法提問曼陀羅表格」，光是回答提問，就能讓人生與職場變得更豐富。 松田認為，曼陀羅表格具有八種特性，包括：1.全面關照2.了解整體與局部的關係3.解決各種問題4.一邊腦力激盪、一邊整理創意5.掌握階層化資訊6.掌握本質7.分享資訊8.視覺化 書中也附有空白的曼陀羅表格，讓你可以一步步填寫，重新想一想自己沒想過或是不曾發現的問題。讓你也能像大谷翔平一樣，改變人生、實現夢想！
