本書在自然與身體感受性的脈絡下，思考禮儀中的象徵在修身及教化中所扮演的關鍵地位。本書溯源到文化源頭的先秦、兩漢時期，說明自然節氣如何影響身體經驗，在對天道的體察中，從而形構物的象徵與身體隱喻。本書透過秦漢禮儀中象徵的細部分析，說明象徵符號與自我的形構、身心轉化，人我關係定義以及倫理的秩序有密不可分的關係。「象徵」既反映著自然風土與物之質性，同時也反映著不同的地方文化所形成的文化心理及身體經驗。修身與教化的理想在體察自然節氣和風土、透過象徵以調節人情中亦得到實踐。This book investigates the key role of symbolism in self-cultivation and moral education in the context of nature and bodily senses. Through detailed analysis of symbols in the etiquette of Qin and Han China, this book illustrates the inseparable relationship between symbolism and self-construction, transformation of body and mind, the definition of human-self relationship, and the order of ethics. “Symbol” not only reflects the landscapes and things, but also reflects the cultural psychology and physical experience formed by different local knowledge. The practice of self-cultivation and morality is also in the process of interpreting nature and regulating human sentiments through symbols.

From Detroit to Cologne, from an artist-run space to a major international museum, Da Corte's work parallels Eminem's career through his thirties, reappearing, evolving alongside America, explaining more of himself each time. Eminem's place in culture and his role in Da Corte's practice, as well as the larger story of American identity, is explored through recent and commissioned essays by Hilton Als, Charlie Fox, William Pym, Martine Syms and Moritz Wesseler, as well as manipulated found texts an

本書介紹 Marie Tharp──第一位描繪出地球海底中央海嶺全貌的女性科學家。自小喜歡觀察世界、熱愛解謎的她，不願受限於時代對女性的期待。二十世紀中期，女性在科學領域並不受歡迎，海上研究更被視為「不適合女性」。Marie 因此無法登船，只能留在實驗室處理同事帶回的資料。然而，她並未因此退縮，而是逐點分析、逐張描繪，慢慢看見海底深處一條巨大裂谷的形狀。儘管科學界一開始對她的發現存疑，但她的資料與推論無懈可擊，最終證實自己觀察正確。這條海底山脈——世界上最大的地理構造——就從她狹小的辦公桌上被完整繪出。溫和呈現女性科學家的堅持與勇氣以易懂方式介紹海底地形與研究歷程適合作為科學啟蒙與女性人物傳記Meet Marie Tharp (1920-2006), the first person to map the Earth’s underwater mountain ridge, in this inspiring picture book biography from the author of Shark Lady.From a young age, Marie Tharp loved watching the world.

In the mid-twentieth century, women were not welcome in the sciences, but Marie was tenacious. She got a job in a laboratory at Cambridge University, New York. But then she faced another barrior: women were not allowed on the research ships (they were considered bad luck on boats). So instead, Marie stayed back and dove deep into the data her colleagues recorded. S

本書延續《The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck》的犀利風格，作者 Mark Manson 以直白又充滿黑色幽默的筆調，探討在物質極大豐富的當下，為何我們仍陷於焦慮與無望之中。從心理學研究到哲學思辨，他剖析宗教與政治的相似之處，並檢視我們與金錢、娛樂、網路的複雜關係，指出「太多美好」反而可能侵蝕心理健康。這不是安慰性的勵志書，而是一次直面現實的思考之旅，提醒讀者重新定義希望與自由的意義。From the author of the international mega-bestseller The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck comes a counterintuitive guide to the problems of hope. We live in an interesting time. Materially, everything is the best it’s ever been—we are freer, healthier and wealthier than any people in human history. Yet, somehow everything seems to be irreparably and horribly f*cked—the planet is warming, governments are failing, economies are collapsing, and everyone is perpetually offended on Twitter. At this moment in history, when we have access to technology, education and communication our ancestors couldn’t even dream of, so many of us come back to an overriding feeling of hopelessness. What’s going on? If anyone can put a name to our current malaise and help fix it, it’s Mark Manson. In 20

The rules for finding professional work once seemed clear and unwavering: capture career highlights in a resume, practice answers to standard interview questions, and do lots of face-to-face networking. Cracking the New Job Market shows how these rules have changed and delivers new job-hunting strategies that actually work.

Willam Holland, a human resources insider, shows job seekers how to: * Gather information on what a prospective employer finds important * Emphasize those skills, accom plish ments, and qualities in tailored resumes and interview answers * Identify the intersection between personal talents and what the marketplace needs * Unlock the networking power of social media * Negotiate the best possible offer Enlightening and practical, this myth-busting book delivers seven powerful rules f

探討如何將電腦科學中的演算法原理應用到日常生活與人類決策中。作者結合心理學、認知科學與計算機科學，說明演算法不僅是電腦解題的工具，更是我們在面對生活難題時可借鑑的思考模型。本書涵蓋多種實用議題，透過演算法的視角來處理生活中的決策與權衡，例如：➤最佳停下時機（Optimal Stopping）：如何判斷在眾多選項中何時停止尋找並做出決定，如招聘或約會。➤探索與利用的平衡（Explore-Exploit Trade-off）：何時探索新機會，何時利用已知資源。➤排序與組織：提升查找效率的策略。➤快取管理：如何在有限記憶空間中有效保留重要資訊。➤工作排程與切換成本：如何管理多任務與優先順序。➤貝氏定理（Bayes's Rule）：結合先驗知識與新資訊做出推論。➤放寬問題限制：在無解或計算困難的情況下，尋求「夠好」的近似解。➤隨機性與資源管理：利用隨機策略在不確定環境下取得良好結果。➤網絡與遊戲理論：理解互動系統與多方利益的決策動態。書中強調，雖然演算法能為複雜問題提供指導，但現實生活中決策仍存在不確定性和失敗風險。重要的是採用合理的策略來面對時間與資源限制，並學習在不完美中作出最佳抉擇。該書還指出，人類在面對計算難題時，常能透過直覺和簡化模型達成驚人的表現。此書獲得廣泛好評，被譽為一本能讓人重新認識「演算法」不僅屬於科技領域，更是生活智慧的指導手冊。A fascinating exploration of how computer algorithms can be applied to our everyday lives. What should we do, or leave undone, in a day or a lifetime?

在 Mac and Mac 的世界裡，什麼問題都能被荒唐的想法解決。兩兄弟腦袋空空，常被朋友耍得團團轉，連派都吃不到完整的一份。為了逃避鋪床，他們竟異想天開跑去睡在床下；為了爭一口派，又鬧出一堆笑話。全書採用漫畫風敘事，文字幽默、插圖誇張，讓孩子們讀來哈哈大笑。這種結合打鬧與民間故事元素的創作，也讓讀者在娛樂之餘，重新看見民間故事的創意詮釋。Mac and Mac, who love pie and hate making their beds, are hollow-headed. "See in here? Nothing! Zippo! Nada!" Mac explains. That’s why they get duped by their friend Meatball and fooled out of their fair shares of apple pie. Slapstick humor, puns and wacky fun abound as the empty-headed duo comes up with outlandish solutions for everyday problems, such as sleeping under their beds to avoid ever having to make them again. Written in a comic-book style, this book will have young readers rolling on the floor, and educators rethinking their approaches to folklore.
