The incredibly buzzy debut that everyone is talking about -- a love story about two people pulled apart by the same force that draws them together: music.It’s a Friday night in a campus bar in Berkeley, fall of 2000, and Percy Marks is pontificating about music again. Hall and Oates is on the jukebox, and Percy—who has no talent for music, just lots of opinions about it—can’t stop herself from overanalyzing the song, indulging what she knows to be her most annoying habit. But something is different tonight. The guy beside her at the bar, fellow student Joe Morrow, is a songwriter. And he could listen to Percy talk all night.Joe asks Percy for feedback on one of his songs—and the results kick off a partnership that will span years, ignite new passions in them both, and set Joe on a path to indie-rock stardom. But it also bruises Joe’s ego, and traps Percy in a role she resents. How long can Percy ignore the roars of her heart, and of her own unique talent, to protect their thrilling col

From one of our foremost psychologists, a trailblazing book that turns the idea of a good life on its head and urges us to embrace the transformative power of variety and experience.For many people, a good life is a stable life, a comfortable life that follows a well-trodden path. This is the case for Shigehiro Oishi's father, who has lived in a small mountain town in Japan for his entire life, putting his family's needs above his own, like his father and grandfather before him. But is a happy life, or even a meaningful life, also a good life?InLife in Three Dimensions, Shige Oishi enters into a debate that has animated psychology since 1984, when Ed Diener (Oishi's mentor) published a paper that launched happiness studies. A rival followed in 1989 with a model of a good life that focused on purpose and meaning instead. In recent years, Shige Oishi's award-winning work has proposed a third dimension to a good life:psychological richness,a concept that prioritizes curiosity, exploration

《Troubled》是一本動人且引人深思的回憶錄，講述Rob Henderson從破碎家庭、寄養制度到美國空軍，再到耶魯與劍橋求學的奮鬥歷程。他提出「奢侈信念」(luxury belief) 的觀念，揭示上層社會藉由炫耀進步思想來獲取地位，卻讓弱勢者承受代價。本書深刻描繪階級、家庭與身分的掙扎，令人動容。NATIONAL BESTSELLER In this "affecting...intriguing...heartbreaking" (Booklist) coming-of-age memoir, Rob Henderson vividly recounts growing up in foster care, enlisting in the US Air Force, attending elite universities, and pioneering the concept of "luxury beliefs"--ideas and opinions that confer status on the upper class while inflicting costs on the less fortunate. Rob Henderson was born to a drug-addicted mother and a father he never met, ultimately shuttling between ten different foster homes in California. When he was adopted into a loving family, he hoped that life would finally be stable and safe. But divorce, tragedy, poverty, and violence marked his adolescent and teen years, propelling Henderson to join the military upon completing high school. A "vivid, insightful, poignant, and powerful" (Nicholas A. Christakis, author of

This rich and enjoyable book recounts the tangled, dynamic encounters through which Asia has influenced Europe and North America over centuries'A rich history… Harding writes with energy and insight, wearing a tremendous amount of learning lightly' - Rana Mitter, Financial TimesThis rich and enjoyable book by the acclaimed author of Japan Story explores the many ways in which Asia has influenced Europe and North America over centuries of tangled, dynamic encountersFrom the time of the ancient Greeks onwards the West's relationship with Asia consisted for the most part of outrageous tales of strange beasts and monsters, of silk and spices shipped over vast distances and an uneasy sense of unknowable empires fantastically far away. By the twentieth century much of Asia might have come under Western rule after centuries of warfare, but its intellectual, artistic and spiritual influence was fighting back.The Light of Asia is a wonderfully varied and entertaining history of the many ways in

Look to the sky!High above the ground, generation after generation, Native workers called skywalkers have sculpted city skylines, balancing on narrow beams, facing down terrifying heights and heartbreaking loss. These skywalkers who dared to touch the heavens have built a legacy of landmarks all over the North American continent--and even today, there are Native Americans still climbing up among the clouds, brave enough to walk the sky.With impactful and illuminating prose, Patricia Morris Buckley (Mohawk) tells the soaring story of the remarkable skywalkers, whose bravery and tragedies are warmly captured in moving watercolors by award-winning artist E. B. Lewis (Lenni-Lenape).

A high-end wedding on a private island off the coast of Seattle sounds like something out of a magazine. But for bestselling mystery author Kate Valentine, it's more like a nightmare.

如何與人連結，是生命中最核心的問題：當我們契合，就有歸屬感；與某人衝突，產生孤單感。澳洲最富盛名的人際連結科學家獨創TACT連結類型，首次引進個人連結的頻率與強度概念，幫助我們建立更快樂合諧的人際關係。艾莉．沃克博士根據群體動力學之研究，將人際關係科學化，建立全新測驗模型TACT（The Ality Connection Type，艾莉迪連結類型），有別於大部分的人格測驗只關注個人優勢，這是一套能深入了解如何順利發展人際關係的實用框架。※四大象限（光、水、綠、土）╳ 十七種連結類型：介紹每一型的特徵、溝通與領導風格、優勢、挑戰和建議※分析「立即契合／衝突」、「直覺契合／衝突」、「親密契合／衝突」：認識連結頻率與強度偏好，如何影響我們與誰合得來或合不來※找到符合自己本質的方式來溝通：有助建立令人愉悅的連結，獲得更深刻的歸屬感理解自己為何會這樣交朋友、談戀愛，以及與誰相容，接受每個人的本來樣貌，進一步擁有選擇權，不在合不來的人身上耗費太多精力，從今以後，讓更多的正面連結滋養你的豐盛人生。【各界讚譽】「身為一個學術領導者，我有機會思考許多不同的領導模式，但直到我完成了沃克博士的連結類型模型調查，才終於可以說：『是的，這就是我，我是一名水型（漣漪效應）領導者！』這個模型為我提供了一個有力的敘述方式，來談論我如何與他人連結，以及我的優勢和劣勢，無論是在個人生活或專業領域，它都是一個出色的工具。」──蓮安．皮格特（Leanne Piggott）教授「人生與事業成功的最大問題和障礙，在於人們僅僅因為彼此的不同而難以連結。這正是本書的切入點，本書作者是備受推崇的艾莉．沃克博士。艾莉揭開了人際關係的奧祕，書中包含了豐富實用的建議與真實故事，幫助你建立強而有力的連結和關係。如果你想知道如何與生活周遭的人擦出最棒的火花，就讀這本書吧！」──珍妮．艾利斯（Janine Allis），活力果汁（Boost Juice）創辦人暨零售動物樂園（Retail Zoo）合夥人「我很榮幸能在『改變之屋』（Change Room）計畫中與艾莉．沃克共事，並觀察她講解連結類型。我強烈推薦這本書，它能幫助你更深入了解他人，以及他們如何學習、理解並對訊息做出反應。但更重要的是，它幫助你了解自己，變得更有意識，並在生活中建立更好的人際關係。」──安東尼．米尼奇洛（Anthony Minichiello），澳洲國

多重人格不是一個人的不同面相，而是不同人格的自我競爭與隔閡。承認與理解我們都有複數自我，才是健康正常的心態。每個人都有複數自我，每個人都可以練習在正確時刻，用正確的自我，做正確的事。「讚美作者們勤奮的研究、原創性的思考，還有勇氣十足的率先開拓，把現代心理學基本假設改變到更近似於我們的真實面貌。」——艾諾蒂・朱迪斯（Anodea Judith）博士，《東方身體，西方心靈》（Eastern Body, Western Mind）作者「縝密、迷人，而且讀起來充滿樂趣。對於身而為人是何種意義，作者們更上一層樓的理解讓我欣喜若狂。」——羅伯・布雷茲尼（Rob Brezsny），《正面妄想是負面妄想的解毒劑》（Pronoia Is the Antidote for Paranoia）作者＊你曾經跟自己對話嗎？你覺得在跟誰對話？另一個聲音？或另一個人？＊你曾經獨自或跟朋友一起做過很瘋狂的事嗎？──某種你在父母、子女、同事或老闆面前絕對不會做的事？那樣做的人是誰？事後你自己覺得尷尬或後悔嗎？＊你是否曾經感受到莫大的壓力，以至於做出自己絕對不會做的事？一旦你這麼做了──你的另一個部分是否已經知道你正在鑄下大錯？如果你再次經歷同樣的壓力，那一部分的你會不會再度出現？承認我們自己具有這些不同點，就是本書的重點：「複數自我（多重人格）」並不是疾病，而是一種健康且具有創意的生存機制，不同的自我有能力突顯出不同的性質、特徵與天賦。學習接納自己的多重人格，在日常生活中，應用健康人格的言語跟自己對話是相當有趣的練習。轉化人格不是難事，關鍵在轉化時的專注。接受它、面對它，在適當的時機控制它，讓它成為我們獨一無二的生命交響曲！在你閱讀本書時，期望你至少會做兩件事：・放下把自己描述成一個單一、整體自我的種種方式。・開始接納並欣賞自己的複數自我，還有別人的複數自我。本書關注的焦點是多重人格的健康與完整性——而非聚焦在病變與功能失調；既然相信複數自我存在，否認它們的真實性或設法逼迫它們離開，都是一種錯誤。透過心理學、神經科學，甚至文學和大眾文化，探討多重自我的概念如何在科學與靈性得到印證，本書並提供務實的方法教導我們如何協調自己，學習如何在不同的情況展示適當的自我人格，幫助我們更了解自己；培養並融合這些複數自我，讓我們更健康、也更快樂。
