因為跟小星球上唯一一朵玫瑰花鬧彆扭，小王子負氣離開。於是他開始遊歷各星球，遇見行為怪異、思想自大的國王、實業家、點路燈者、地理學家等，作者以小王子的角度，反映小孩眼中的大人，以狹隘的眼光認定自己的行為與想法是無誤的。最後，小王子來到地球，降落於撒哈拉沙漠，遇見飛行員、狐狸，他與狐狸的對話，讓他明白不該扔下他心愛的花朵，任由它孤零零地待在小星球上。 《小王子》是一本值得一讀再讀的經典小說，寓意深遠，提醒人們不要只看到事物的表象，而忽略了內在豐富的意涵。如同狐狸告訴小王子：「真正的東西，不是用眼睛看得到，唯有用心靈才看得見。」 Imagine being stranded in the Sahara.

When you read this book, you’ll realize why this classic is loved by people of all ages all over the world.

This book is the result of discoveries made by Nivison beginning in 1979, It uses critically (without superseding) his monographs from 1983 through 2002, combined with his discoveries through 2008. Its main thrust is to show that the methods and results of the PRC “Three Dynasties Project” are invalid, and that recovering chronology before 841 BCE can be solved only by using the supposedly spurious Jinben Zhushu Jinian (“Modern Text” Bamboo Annals), combined with hypothesis that reign lengths of record were normally the years after completion of mourning for the preceding king. Part One presents resulting exact dates form the beginning of Xia, confirmed by discoveries in astronomy by D. W. Pankenier and Kevin Pang. Part Two criticizes the Three-years Dynasties Project and argues for the post-mourning hypothesis and the high antiquity of the three-years mourning institution. In Part Three, applying a discovery by E. L. Shaughnessy, the author reconstructs the first 303 bamboo strips of

A Pragmatist and His Free Spirit portrays the unconventional love of Hu Shi, a Chinese social reformer and civil rights pioneer, and Edith Clifford Williams, an American avant-garde artist of the early twentieth century. Hu studied at Cornell University, where he first met Williams, and Columbia University, where he worked with the famous pragmatist John Dewey. At the time of his death in 1962, he and Williams had exchanged more than 300 letters that, along with poems and excerpts from Hu's diaries and documents (some of which have never before been translated into English) form the center of this book. In Williams, Hu found his intellectual match, a woman and fellow scholar who helped the reformer reconcile his independent scholarship with cultural tradition. Williams counciled Hu on the acceptance of an arranged marriage, and she influenced his pursuit of experimental vernacular poetry through an exposure to avant-garde art. In 1933, the two became lovers, although their romance wou

This study investigates the internal structure of noun phrases In Chinese and argues that number, referentiality, and totality/partitivity are all syntactically represented. Viewing number in a new light, it claims that number in a classifier language is syntactically encoded via the use of a $P, i.e., NumP, the head of which is occupied by a classifier/massifier (cf. Boer 2005). Plurality Is realized differently in a #P via the use of numerals, the plural classifier xie, quantifiers, or the reduplication of classifiers/massiflers. The plural marker-men is a derivational suffix marking either collective plurality or semantic plurality, resolving the problem that syntactic plurality may co-occur with semantic plurality when syntactic plurality marks an indeterminate quantity. Unlike the standard head-complement analysis that assumes a DP-NumP-CIP-DP hierarchy, this study argues that a numeral or a quantifier enters into a relation with a classifier/massilier, forming a UP A P (with or w

The impressive array of penetrating analysis and provocative interpretations afforded by this volume’s 14 chapters sharpen appreciation of the ongoing transformations of China’s Hong Kong since 1997 and the possibilities embedded in its journey toward an integrative merger-convergence with the Mainland by 2047. A unique strength of this volume lies with the wide ranging views and divergent assessments offered by the chapter authors of different nationalities, varied experience, diverse academic/professional disciplines, and of competing ideo-political persuasions. Ten of them are leading academics (economist, historian, legalist, media scholar, political scientist, sociologist) well-published on Hong Kong topics while seven are seasoned practitioners on the cutting edge of Hong Kong’s development (as HKSAR official, legislator, Basic Law Committee member, business leader, think-tank expert, journalist, and US diplomat). They render this volume a profoundly pluralistic and multi-dimens

The primary purpose of this book is to examine the contributions of the Malaysian Chinese community in nation-building. Attention is focused principally on the post-independence period but with justified emphasis on the earlier era that constituted the formative stage of the country as a political state. The areas and extent of Chinese contributions are multi-faceted. The present study deals with the more crucial areas that determine the vigour and durability of the Malaysian nation-state. These are identified as the economic, political and cultural aspects of life that combine to make what it is today and that will have a profound influence on its future prospects. Volume one is divided into three parts, namely, introduction, historical background, and economic perspective. Volume two will deal with nation-building from the political and cultural perspective.

This richly illustrated chronicle of Chinese civilization furnishes general readers and scholars alike with an authoritative overview of Chinese history, art and culture, from the pre-historic era to the early twentieth century, touching upon recurring themes and developments and synthesizing more than five thousand years of evolution and transition.

Every aspect of Chinese civilization is explained, interpreted, contextualized and brought to life with well-balanced commentary and photographic documentation. The result is a fascinating distillation of the past, an indispensable guide that renders the ancient past relevant to China today and to the rest of the world. Students of Chinese civilization will appreciate the detail of the research while lay readers, fro

Decision Making and Operations Research Techniques for Construction Management challenges the traditional empirical approach to problem solving and provides construction practitioners with a seasoned account to resolving day-to-day complicated issues in construction project management.

This book provides scientific tools for practitioners to resolve some practical problems which are administered empirically at present and may lead to inconsistent results and human errors. The modern decision-making tools introduced in this book include Multi-criteria Decision-making Models, Artificial Neural Network, Genetic Algorithms, Construction Simulation, Rough Set Theory and Advanced Statistical Techniques for construction. This book will serve as a useful companion for those m

One of the momentous events of the world today is the emergence of China as an economic and political power. Unprecedented rates of economic growth have catapulted China into the forefront of the world arena. Malaysia took the bold step to establish diplomatic relations with China in 1974. This publication is a celebration of three decades of close ties between the two neighbours.

This is a study of the structure and properties of compound verbs in Mandarin Chinese. By excluding separable structures such as Verb-Object phrases and resultative and directional constructions, we are able to establish that verbs, like nouns, are invariably right-headed, i.e. modifiers always precede what they modify; and also that compound verbs with relatively few exceptions are disyllabic...

Co-authored by Eugene Nida and JIN Di, On Translation was first published in 1984 by the China Translation and Publishing Corporation in Beijing. It is widely recognized as a classic in translation theory with a practical orientation. Following the theoretical framework Nida had developed over decades of work on translation and semiotics, the two authors offer an easily comprehensible analysis of the complex problems involved in translation. After a critical review of the historical development of translation theory in the light of modern information theory, they elucidate the most fundamental principles of translation in accordance with the concept of dynamic equivalence. The treatment is closely related to actual translation practice, and the principles elucidated are applicable to all types of translation, though most of the examples analyzed are taken from translations between Chinese and English. This new and expanded edition has two main parts. Part I is the complete text of th

Evolution of language has evolved at multiple levels—from changes in the cognitive processes by which language is acquired in the individual, to language change by diffusion of acquired linguistic features across populations of individuals, to the emergence of linguistic features over phylogenetic time scales. Evolution of language at each of these levels interacts with that at each other level. This volume is a collection of essays by noted researchers from diverse fields that deals with a broad spectrum of issues in the study of language evolution. The principle topics addressed here include: the genetic and cognitive bases for the phylogenetic emergence of language; several distinct accounts of the underlying cognitive processes by which children learn to acquire language; a critique of the methods employed by historical linguists in the last century; the modeling of language evolution using mathematical and computational techniques; discussions on the complexity of language.

This work is the result of a co-operation between a social anthropologist and a social historian and is focused on the social evolution of Southern China. Based on a longitudinal fieldwork study in the Pearl River Delta, which is the heartland of the Cantonese-speaking world, the book explores how the ordinary people and their society evolved in a period of time characterized by drastic change. The study reports on how history supplies people with a repository for the future and accounts for how their march towards modernity is, at the same time, a reconstruction of a tradition.

數位社會如何改變了我們？ 我們現在缺少的是空閒。稍事休息，人生就會改變。 數位排毒，為生活帶來積極的改變！ 「工作不順心」、「感情出問題」、「最近睡多久還是睏」、「總是焦慮或不耐煩」、「頭痛、腰痛」等現代人面臨的許多問題，都是因為「腦疲勞」造成的！ 由於數位技術的快速發展，我們人類正在經歷「大腦疲勞」。 為了擺脫現代人特有的無用感和生活艱辛，並憧憬一種更幸福的生活方式，重要的是抽出時間休息一下。 誠如約翰．藍儂所唱的歌〈Living is easy with eyes closed〉，「人生若閉上眼睛而活就很容易」。大家都處在思考停止狀態而忙得不可開交時，只有自己一個人在休息是需要勇氣的。我們就生活在這樣的時代中。 其實如何休息才是最重要的！ 透過閱讀本書，你可以組織自己的休息方式！ 為了在高地社會過著充實的生活，現在是我們奪回被時間竊賊偷走的「空閒時間」的時候了。 我們之所以不能如願地發揮自己的能力，不是因為缺乏「能力」，而是因為缺乏「容量」。 很多人的智慧型手機已經充滿電，但卻無法為自己的裝置充電。但，那將是一種遺憾。 本書借鑒了來自世界各地過去和現在的大量研究和經典著作，以思考「人們為什麼會失去充實的時間？」這個問題。並鳥瞰現代社會。 在現代，「閒暇」被視為是沒有任何產出、沒有效率的存在──「應該要填補閒暇的時間」──因而被擠壓到角落去。可是透過將閒暇放置在人類社會的中心，並思考其創造法以及活用法，就能讓更多人獲得休息，並自動產生出改變人生的能量。而且在忙碌的現代生活中，我們其實也能簡單採用那樣的休息。 在過勞成為社會問題的現今，市面上有許多關於休息的方法論，但多數都是說到「該如何休息（How）」，幾乎沒有從本質提問到底「為什麼要休息（Why）」的。 那麼，為什麼要休息呢──如果要回答這個問題，那就是在自己人生中，甚至是社會中「能引起積極正面的變革」。不是單純讓明天、後天都做出相同思考、工作、維持現狀才「休息」。不論是要改變自己還是改變社會，都需要有許多能量，所以要「休息」。 為什麼我們無法抵抗數位的誘惑？ 數位社會如何改變了我們的身心？ 生活在現代的我們是被什麼所束縛著？ 該如何從置身的體制轉以富足的閒暇社會為目標， 並找出能讓眾人都獲得幸福的策略性「閒暇」具體實踐法。 我們所需要的「策略」是找回屬於自己的閒暇，並能將由那分閒暇所培育出的思考以及能量往對個人

The Sublime Object of Orientalism proposes that globalised Asian physical cultural practices such as taiji, qigong, yoga, and meditation can be understood by examining the intimate connection between Western orientalism and the Romantic aesthetic notion of the sublime. The book recasts ‘orientalist physical culture’ as practices animated by the sublime and argues that this relationship is stronger than has hitherto been recognised by commentators. Bowman combines new readings of philosophers and cultural critics such as Slavoj Žižek and Jane Iwamura with analyses of film, media, and Asian physical practices and their entrepreneurial forms to shed light on the quest to articulate a philosophy of orientalist physical culture. He also explores ways to make sense of orientalist physical culture in the contemporary world and evaluate the often-problematic ideologies that circulate around these cultural practices without either uncritically accepting their value or rejecting them outright.

Travels and Revelations: 23 Essays by Zhang Chengzhi is about cultures which the author knows intimately. With sophisticated sensibility, he describes the tangible cultures of Beijing, Inner Mongolia, Gansu, Ningxia and Xinjiang in recent decades – the landscapes and cityscapes, the roads and waterways, the rural and urban dwellings, the working and living habits, and the outstanding symbols and totems. Like a traveller pausing before stunning scenery – the Mongolian grasslands, the yellow-earth plateaus, the Yellow River’s mighty gorges – he reflects on the intangible cultures that have made the Han, the Hui, the Mongolian and the Uyghur peoples who they are, and contemplates on their language usages, socio-political dilemmas, philosophical traditions, beliefs and biases and their religious aspirations. These essays show how deeply Zhang Chengzhi understands modern China’s painful evolution through war and revolution and how deeply he is attached to his Hui–Muslim roots. They also

A groundbreaking exploration of justice, democracy and Islamophobia, inviting us to reconsider our assumptions and build a more equitable future. Change has run amok! Technology advances by the minute, and much of what we think we know about the world fades in front of our eyes. How we are, how we know, how we live our daily lives—all shifting quicker than we can cope with. Anwar Ibrahim, Malaysia’s tenth Prime Minister, asks how we might rethink ourselves for these confusing, uncertain and volatile times, and shape fairer, more sustainable futures. Anwar’s passion is rooted in experience: he spent, in total, over a decade behind bars after three separate miscarriages of justice, from his days as a student activist to his time as Leader of the Opposition. Alongside reflections on his time in prison are critical investigations into truth, justice, post-colonialism, Islamophobia, democracy and global order. Anwar assembles ideas from East and West, North and South, to explore how we c

「我們要的，是可以被看見的權利， 不是被看破的命運。」 ───酒店公關真實口述，酒店行業的第一線現場─── 有人說做酒店是「下海」，但我是踮著腳，努力靠岸。 她們戴上假髮進場， 在燈光閃爍、酒精氤氳的包廂裡， 懂得扮演，也學會生存。 這裡沒有年齡、身分的差異， 只有一群拚命活著的撐家女子。 ／ 酒店的日常，就是拿青春賭明天。 不平等的合約、酒桌上的情緒勞動、潛藏的暴力危機、撐家與生活的重擔── 那些不該發生的，在這裡，全成了「職災」。 ．有人白天接送孩子、夜裡陪笑撐場，只為穩穩過完一天； ．有人被灌醉性侵，只得到一句：「人沒事就好」； ．有人在後場分便當、聊八卦，替崩潰的姐妹遞紙巾、擋下一杯酒。 ▍她們是酒店公關，眾人口中的小姐， ▍也是夜晚最努力生存的女人。 ●● 《酒與妹仔的日常》從酒店公關紅湄的視角出發，寫下她與姐妹們的真實日常。 有人是家裡的長姊、單親媽媽，也有人與身心疾病共處。這些社會上不被看見的身影，在林森北的包廂裡彼此照顧。 她們踩著高跟鞋，進出一間間包廂，在社會的惡意與誤解中隱藏創傷、扛起家計，用不被承認的勞動，守住僅有的尊嚴。 她們不求同情，也不是要洗白酒店，只是想讓社會知道── 我們先是一個人，才是酒店小姐； 我們的故事，不是奇觀，也不是悲歌； 而是在夾縫中撐住尊嚴與生活的選擇。 這，就是我們的日常。 ────────────────── 【專文推薦】 林立青（作家） 陳美華（中山大學社會系特聘教授兼社會科學院院長） 【聯合推薦】 朱剛勇（「人生百味」共同創辦人） 林薇Vivi（小紅帽 With Red＆月經博物館創辦人） 柯映安（編劇／作家） 席耶娜（條通媽媽桑／臺北市娛樂公關經紀職業工會理事） 黃克先（台灣大學社會系教授） 劉珞亦（法律白話文運動社群總監） 謝金魚（歷史作家） 謝瓊煖（演員） 顧玉玲（作家） ＿＿依姓氏筆劃順序排列 ▍各界好評 ●朱剛勇（「人生百味」共同創辦人）── 身體與情欲是外界認知酒店公關的「武力」。然而閱讀本書，你會發現真正最有魅力與能量的，是酒妹的觀察之眼與文字──其穿越了迷霧與叢林，帶出只有他們找得到的寶藏。 ●席耶娜（條通媽媽桑／臺北市娛樂公關經紀職業工會理事）── 標籤，是我們辨識一個人最快的方式：這個人是台大畢業、E人或I人、八大行業、酒店小姐……但人是多樣化的，也都會改變。 在

2012諾貝爾文學獎得主──莫言，最重要的長篇代表作之一 肆意揮灑奇崛想像力、將荒誕魔幻發展到極致的作品 「莫言將夢幻寫實主義與民間故事、歷史和當代社會合而為一。」──諾貝爾獎委員會 The Nobel Prize in Literature 2012 was awarded to Mo Yan "who with hallucinatory realism merges folk tales, history and the contemporary". 瘋狂與理智掙扎的記錄。 本書除了是一部家族的歷史，也是一個作家的精神歷史。 這本書是我於一九八七至一九八九年間陸續完成的。書中表達了我渴望通過吃草淨化靈魂的強烈願望，表達了我對大自然的敬畏與膜拜，表達了我對蹼膜的恐懼，表達了我對性愛與暴力的看法，表達了我對傳說和神話的理解，當然也表達了我的愛與恨，袒露了我的靈魂，醜的和美的，光明的和陰晦的…… ──莫言 這本書是莫言肆意揮灑奇崛想像力的長篇小說，堪稱華語文學中將荒誕夢幻發展到極致的作品；全書透過六個荒誕又密切關聯的夢境，表達出莫言對高密東北鄉食草家族的想像與嚮往。 莫言認為最原始的人類應該是食草動物，據說食草家族的人單純善良又美好，他們由於每天吃草，牙齒特別白，嘴裡常帶一股草的清香……；他們只是吃草，對於自然沒有過高的要求，沒有太大的野心，遇到天災會寄託於神的庇佑，但是也會靠自己的力量去面對……；但他們也會有恐懼、暴力、復仇與醜陋的欲望……。 小說以高密東北鄉為背景，描寫生活在貧瘠而又富饒的土地上，人們與大自然的關係、人與人之間的生存關係。歷史與現實，人為與自然，全書融合視覺、味覺、觸覺與魔幻荒誕的想像，濃墨重彩兼之天馬行空，令人驚歎。是莫言肆意揮灑奇崛想像力的極致作品。
