To Know the Real Drucker: Eight Articles Will Help You is a collection of eight articles by Peter Drucker: “The Unfashionable Kierkegaard” (1949) and its introduction (1992), “The New World-View” (1957), “From Analysis to Perception: The New World View” (1989), “Reflections of a Social Ecologist” (1992), “What Is a Functioning Society?” (1942), “From Rousseau to Hitler” (1942), “The Human Situation Today” (1957), and “Management as Social Function and Liberal Art” (1989). Readers can find the source of each articles in the table of contents and editor’s note per article. Of the eight articles, only the last one is from Drucker’s works on management. The other seven are from his books on society, politics, and economics. Although the world has hailed him as the “Father of Modern Management,” he considered himself a “social ecologist.” This book will play an indispensable role in explaining the reason for that and in further understanding the foundation of faith and worldview which Druck

以推動台灣前進的「五大軟實力」取代武力開放、文明、進步、和平、學習凝聚高希均教授一生學思與淬鍊於關鍵時刻給予台灣的迫切叮嚀高希均教授「打造台灣軟實力之島」系列卷一台灣的未來要如何走？開放，決定了一切——二十世紀下半葉，「開放社會」與「競爭力」兩個觀念改變了世界政經版圖——早在半世紀前，齊邦媛教授在經濟學大師海耶克教授（Friedrich Hayek）的演講中，將「Open Society」口譯為「開放社會」，送給了台灣聽眾一個石破天驚的新思路，其影響歷久彌新。其後的半個世紀，「開放」（openness）及「開放社會」成為「落後地區」變身「開發國家」的重要啟蒙觀念，也是一個最有效的發展策略。由於美國擁有全球最「開放社會」，它形成了最有競爭力的社會；正因中國大陸推動「開放」，才能在三十年間「和平崛起」，將一個貧窮落後的國家，變成了全球坐二望一的大經濟體。開放是不容易走的路，更不是一個空洞的政策宣示。台灣若無世界頂尖的人才，就不要想賺世界的錢。透過本書，長期耕耘教育與知識推廣產業的高希均教授指出：「開放」即使在先進國家，也仍有各種程度的不開放，如對移民、科技等限制。「開放」實在是一個民主體制、法治社會及心態公平、全球化合作下的折衷。台灣不肯、不敢、不夠開放時，也就會理所當然的變成各種國際經濟貿易協定的局外人。台灣的命運掌握在人民的開放心態之中。此外，「開放」亦是透過市場的競爭機制，決定成敗；禁不起考驗的自然就淘汰， 正因為有淘汰，產業主不得不拚命努力，有生命力的新產業也可以興起；僱用的工資也就可以上升。如果因為開放而受到淘汰的產業，政府自也可以考慮短期的救濟及轉業的訓練；但千萬不能因此而不敢開放，尤其不能鎖國。本書部分內容曾以《開放台灣》書名於2015年出版，文章皆取材自作者歷年撰述的文字，書中從國內外各種實例及切身經驗不斷指陳：只有開放、興利、鬆綁，台灣才有出路。

★ 紐約時報暢銷作家——克里斯．韋羅頓 最新力作！ ★ 美國亞馬遜５顆星好評推薦！ 現代人追求高智商ＩＱ（Intelligence Quotien），卻忽略了人的受造有一更深層的領域—靈。身為神的兒女，當我們的靈透過信心與聖靈連結，我們將擁有如同神一般的思維，超越屬地有限的智慧，就像電腦連結於網際網路的無限資源，我們的屬靈商數ＳＱ（Spiritual Quotien）也將得以不斷發展。 作者從自身豐富而奇妙的經歷出發，加以精闢、透徹的論述，說明當神兒女連結於神無限的資源時，將如同耶穌軟弱的門徒被轉化成為大能的使徒，領受異象與啟示、施行醫治和神蹟，為神建立勝過黑暗權勢的榮耀國度。 神的心意是屬神的兒女都領受祂的心智能力，在這世代活出屬天的治理權柄，為人的生命帶來改變，彰顯祂的形象和榮耀。 各界推薦： 「克里斯‧韋羅頓在他的最新創作中引介給讀者一個新概念，屬靈智力商數是由一個人對於聖靈所說的話的了解程度來決定的。克里斯鼓勵讀者藉由更了解基督的心來學習擁有屬神的思維。當你讀完本書後，這些新概念將會轉化、調整並改變你的心，提高你的屬靈層級！」——鮑勃‧哈森（Bob Hasson），商業顧問、RM Hasson 有限公司 CEO、《尊榮的事業》（The Business of Honor，暫譯）作者 「藉由關於神經科學的洞見和邀請我們與聖靈同行，克里斯‧韋羅頓從天堂的角度打開了屬靈智力的新視野，讓我們可以超越自然界的思維進到屬天的思維。他幫助我們與神對齊，以成為文化轉化的改變因子。克里斯有趣的故事、超自然的探索以及清楚而實際的引導，會使你渴慕展開進到屬靈智力領域的獨特旅程。」——蘿倫‧哈森（Lauren Hasson），生命之泉事工（Lifestreams Ministries）創辦人兼事工主任 「我有幸能見到本書的信息在克里斯的心中成形，直到神期盼的工作成就在他的生命中。現在，它將改變讀者的生命。本書使我們因為領受屬天智慧而感到興奮，因為當我們與神建立夥伴關係時，將賦予我們生命目的和命定感，遠遠超出我們最瘋狂的想像。現在該是時候，我們站立在呼召之上，向世人彰顯基督充滿盼望的心了。」——比爾‧強生（Bill Johnson），伯特利教會主任牧師、《行在神蹟中》（以琳書房出版）等書作者 「克里斯經常逼得我去思考。這本書也是如此！他提供了有效的觀點、具有挑戰性的啟示和新鮮的洞見。

隨想集續 一些踩踏在虛空中的足跡 願我們心無波瀾，澄澈如天空。願我們彼此護慰，以度過這暫時的黑暗。 在出版了《隨想集》（2013-2022 年）三年之後，現在又集結了別冊《隨想集續》（2023-2025 年），以與心靈相契的朋友在靈魂的暗夜中互通款曲。這三年中，時代丕變！我們被催逼著隨著時代的鼓聲急速前行！將去往何方？不可確知，無法掌控。回顧身後？我們所熟悉的世界已一去不返了。這不僅是當代、也是古今共通的情境。思及此，我又要吟誦英國詩人馬修‧阿諾德（Matthew Arnold, 1822-1888）的詩句了，當時他與新婚妻子漫步在英國多佛海邊，遙見對岸法國的熠熠燈火：（這是最後的一段）Ah, love, let us be trueTo one another! For the world, which seemsTo lie before us like a land of dreams,So various, so beautiful, so new,Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light,Nor certitude, no peace, nor help for pain;And we are here as on a darkling plainSwept with confused alarms of struggle and flight,Where ignorant armies clash by night.馬修‧阿諾德所處的十九世紀，是一個變動劇烈的時代，工業革命的浪潮如海嘯般湧來，作為心靈與生活支柱的宗教信仰也受到人們的質疑，他身處其中，內心感到極度的惶惑不安 ―如此紛繁，如此美麗，如此新穎，其實沒有歡樂，沒有愛，沒有光，沒有明確，沒有和平，沒有對痛苦的救贖；詩人是先知吧？德國詩人海涅（Heinrich Heine, 1797-1856）早已警告世人：德意志的民族主義將為人類帶來大禍，果然。馬修‧阿諾德的惶惑不安也非無病呻吟，他謝世之後不到三十年，爆發了第一次世界大戰，他詩中描述的爭戰相殘不幸成真。現在，二十一世紀在驚濤駭浪中走過了四分之一，網路、人工智能、商業與消費主義……撒下漫天巨網，傳統價值與既有體制正在崩壞瓦解，我們心中的惶惑不安較諸十九世紀的先賢們更為猛烈。我的讀者朋友們―願我們心無波

Not just management. This book reveals the philosophical soul of Peter Drucker’s thought. Through eight essential articles, it explores purpose, responsibility, and society, inviting leaders and thinkers to look beyond techniques and rediscover management as a deeply human endeavor.Unveiling the Soul of Management: A Deep Dive into Drucker’s PhilosophyStudy Notes on Drucker’s Eight Articles offers a profound and personal exploration of Peter Drucker’s most critical writings. Developed through a close collaboration with Shao Minglo’s compilation To Know the Real Drucker, this volume transcends traditional management commentary to reveal the philosophical bedrock of Drucker’s worldview.The author, originally a scholar of ancient Chinese literature, approaches Drucker not merely as a management guru, but as a great thinker in the lineage of Dostoevsky and Thomas Mann. Through a journey that traverses the diagnosis of totalitarianism and the search for societal salvation, these notes conne

“Dr. Cohen relinquished his role as president several years ago. Even in the final months of his life, he remained engaged and active, not ready to retire.

Wisdom That Transforms Lives Twenty-five centuries ago, a man who had once lived in royal luxury walked barefoot across the dusty plains of India, sharing insights that would forever change human history. The Buddha—“the Awakened One”—dedicated forty-nine years of his life to illuminating the path beyond suffering for all who would listen. This first volume presents 36 stories from the Buddha’s life and the lives of his disciples, each revealing the Buddha’s remarkable ability to meet people where they were and guide them toward realization. Readers will discover the Buddha’s insights on the importance of kindness, right speech, right actions, and community living that remain profoundly relevant to our lives today. Each story concludes with “Words of Wisdom” that connect ancient guidance to contemporary challenges. Throughout the collection, we see how the Buddha’s gentle yet powerful approach led others to profound insights, inspiring many to become his disciples and continue their sp
