九名船難倖存者漂流海上多日，絕望之時，他們在海浪中救起一名自稱為上帝的男子…。Mitch Albom哲學新作。當你向上帝呼救，祂真的現身時，你是已經置身天堂？抑或是抓住了救命的稻草？ What would happen if we called on God for help and God actually appeared? In Mitch Albom’s profound new novel of hope and faith, a group of shipwrecked passengers pull a strange man from the sea. He claims to be “the Lord.” And he says he can only save them if they all believe in him.Adrift in a raft after a deadly ship explosion, nine people struggle for survival at sea. Three days pass. Short on water, food and hope, they spot a man floating in the waves. They pull him in.“Thank the Lord we found you,” a passenger says.“I am the Lord,” the man whispers.So begins Mitch Albom’s most beguiling and inspiring novel yet.Albom has written of heaven in the celebrated number one bestsellers The Five People You Meet in Heaven and The First Phone Call from Heaven. Now, for the first time in his fiction, he ponders what we would do if, after crying out for divine help, God actually appeared before us? Wha

“人類為巴勒斯坦流的血，比為地球上任何地方流的都要多”。起源於巴勒斯坦的猶太人在經歷近兩千年的流散後，在同一片土地、操著原有的語言重新建國。在這個獨一無二的歷史事件中，英國的支持起到了關鍵作用。這一方面是由於不列顛人一直將巴勒斯坦視為自己的精神家園，另一方面，也是出於大英帝國的戰略考量。巴巴拉•塔奇曼通過生動的細節、文學的筆法，以及堅實的史料支撐，記述了從不列顛起源到《貝爾福宣言》的漫長歷史中，文化和政治的動機——即“聖經”與“利劍”——如何塑造了英國的近東政策，並深刻影響了近代中東地區的歷史進程。

本書借助“都城”這一視角，在“東亞都城時代”形成與解體的背景下，發掘唐長安城空間在日本的複製與挪用，及其在日本古代文學中引起的連鎖性反應。以十世紀唐王朝的滅亡和長安作為東亞都城典範的失墜為分水嶺，本書嘗試解答了兩個問題：一是九世紀之前日本對唐長安城空間的模仿與日本文人長安書寫稀薄之間的齟齬；二是十世紀以降隨著唐長安城的“消失”及東亞格局的變遷，“長安”如何成為日本文人建構國家認同，並在東亞世界獲取“小中華”身份的手段。本書綜合運用跨文化、跨學科的研究方法，闡述了古代中日兩國的都城空間、王權書寫與國家想像之關聯。

一段超越信仰的荒唐戀曲 兩座戰火蔓延的絕美城池 橫穿歐洲大陸的逃亡之旅 殘酷歲月中的愛與慈悲 因愛上猶太人而被父親驅逐的土耳其貴族小姐希娃，與愛人逃往法國，卻不料這座文明與藝術的寶庫落入了納粹的魔爪；為維護權威而對她以死相逼的父親，亦未料想會親手將女兒推入地獄。 幸而，在土耳其外交官的艱難斡旋下，巴黎的猶太人得以秘密乘車逃往伊斯坦布爾。這列在納粹眼皮底下穿過德國心臟的最後列車，能否帶他們逃出絕境？而在軌道盡頭等待希娃的，是戰火烈烈的人間地獄？是充滿屈辱的傷痛回憶？是飽經折磨的暗淡愛情？還是支離破碎的骨肉親情？

Virginia Woolf（1882-1941），英國女作家，批判家，意識流小說的代表人物之一，被譽為二十世紀現代主義與女性主義的先鋒。兩次世界大戰期間為倫敦文學界的核心人物，同時也是布盧姆茨伯裡派（Bloomsbury Group）的成員之一。最知名的小說包括《戴洛維夫人》（Mrs. Dalloway）、《燈塔行》（To the Lighthouse）、《雅各的房間》（Jakob''s Room）。她提倡女權主義，強調現代小說要著力描寫人的內心世界，而不要機械地描寫現實的生活，這一點和維多利亞時代以來在英國文壇盛行的現實主義風格極大地背道而馳。本書作者的母親是伍爾芙的親密朋友之一，作者也因此能夠通過個人回憶的方式來描述伍爾芙的人生，為讀者勾畫出歷史上最傑出女性之一的形象；同時還積極探究了伍爾芙對女權問題和戰爭性質的態度。

本卷為《杜威晚期著作》（1925―1953）第五卷，收錄了除《確定性的尋求》(The Quest for Certainty)之外杜威撰寫於1929―1930年間的所有作品。本卷為美國現代語言協會學術版本委員會認可文本。在本書導言中，保羅·庫爾茨（Paul Kurtz）稱杜威“正處於創造力和影響力的巔峰”。這一形容頗為貼切：1929年，杜威已是七十歲高齡，卻仍在1929-1930兩年間出版了四本專著和五十篇涉及哲學、教育、政治以及社會問題的文章。在本書所收錄的哲學論文中，《人文主義之我見》(What Humanism Means To Me)和《我的信仰》(What I Believe)兩篇文章表明了杜威對人類潛力與智慧的信念，另外兩篇文章則記錄了杜威與歐內斯特·內格爾（Ernest Nagel）、威廉·歐內斯特·霍金(William Ernest Hocking)、C. I. 劉易斯(C. I. Lewis)、 F. J. E. 伍德布裡奇(F.J.E.Woodbridge)在《哲學雜誌》(Journal of Philosophy)上的熱烈討論。《從絕對主義到實驗主義》(From Absolutism to Experimentalism)一文是杜威難得一見的自傳性文章，文中有一段話也許能夠幫助我們瞭解杜威日益積極地參與社會活動的動因：“總的來說，人和情境對我的影響要多於書本對我的影響。這並不是說我沒有從哲學書籍中學到很多知識，而是說，與一些親身經歷的、迫使我思考、思索的事物相比，我從哲學書籍中學到的東西是技術性的。”《新舊個人主義》（Individualism,Old and New）系列文章首次刊登於1929-1930年的《新共和》(New Republic)雜誌上。在這些文章中，杜威探討了在一個不斷變化社會中“失落”的個人的問題，個人“陷入了龐大的複雜關係網之中”，只有“聯繫現在……根據有意識選擇的可能性努力改變條件”才能找到自己的位置。本書內容表明了杜威日益關注社會和政治問題，同時也證明了科利斯·拉蒙特（Corliss Lamont）在《關於約翰·杜威的對話》(Dialogue on John Dewey)中對杜威的形容是正確的：“他是我所認識的哲學家中最喜歡非學術氛圍的哲學家。”

這隻小老虎曾經很小很小，但現在不一樣了——牠是家裡最大的孩子，應該要勇敢、要獨立、要像「大孩子」一樣。於是，牠踏進廣闊的叢林，試著證明自己已經長大。可是，叢林真的好大好大，還有好多更大的動物，讓牠忍不住感到害怕與不安。就在牠努力不哭、不依賴的時候，牠慢慢發現——原來媽媽一直都在不遠的地方。No matter how big you are, you are NEVER too big for a hug!

英文版原書名為《A Practical Approach to Operative Dentistry》，中文翻譯版書名為《實用牙體修復臨床操作指南》。解決問題和微創牙科應發展為一門與生俱來的藝術，因為都是臨床牙醫的日常工作。出於臨床實踐和診斷目的，這種藝術需要從口腔本科生時就建立並發展。本書旨在幫助學生在頭腦中重新組織事實性知識。並非將臨床前科學劃分為不同的主題，例如解剖學、口腔生物學、生物化學、病理學和材料學。幫助整合知識並在它們之間產生一些可以在實際環境中使用的聯繫。雖然本書是向口腔本科生教授臨床技能的核心教材，但對那些已經執業，或正在教授口腔醫學，或正在準備專業註冊考試(如海外牙醫註冊考試和牙科手術執照考試)的讀者也有指導作用。

在詩集和散文之後，2020諾貝爾文學獎得主葛綠珂最不同以往的，精巧卻又恬靜的短篇故事。透過一對未滿一歲的雙胞胎女嬰，Marigold和Rose的感官，感知並探索這個世界。有趣的是，對世界尚無概念的兩人，想法看似迥異卻微妙地互補。葛綠珂藉嬰幼兒的雙眼，提供了一個認知和理解世界的可愛角度。Marigold and Rose is an enchanting, playful, and absolutely singular fable from the Nobel laureate and Pulitzer Prize winner Louise Glück.“Marigold was absorbed in her book; she had gotten as far as the V.” So begins Marigold and Rose, Louise Glück’s astonishing chronicle of the first year in the life of twin girls. Imagine a fairy tale that is also a multigenerational saga; a piece for two hands that is also a symphony; a poem that is also, in the spirit of Kafka’s Metamorphosis, an incandescent act of autobiography.Here are the elements you’d expect to find in a story of infant twins―Father and Mother; Grandmother and Other Grandmother; bath time and naptime―but more than that, Marigold and Rose is an investigation of the great mystery of language and of time itself, of what is and what has been and what will be. “Outside the playpen there wer

《A Day for Sandcastles》是一部無字繪本，描繪兄妹三人一整天在海灘堆沙堡的過程。風吹、浪來、路人踩過，他們的作品一次次被破壞，又一次次重新開始。雖無文字，卻充滿情感與節奏。作者與插畫家繼《Over the Shop》後，再度以圖像敘事呈現童年的專注、合作與創造力。這本書不僅適合親子共讀，更讓人感受到「過程」本身的價值與樂趣。A dazzling wordless picture book celebrates creative problem-solving, teamwork, and the sun-splashed wonder of a day at the beach.The creators of the acclaimed Over the Shop evoke a perfect summer beach day—and themes of creativity, cooperation, flexibility, and persistence—all without a word in this sun-warmed, salt-stained delight of a story. A busload of beachgoers spills out onto the sand for a day of fun and frolic. Three siblings begin work on a castle, patting and shaping the sand as the sun arcs over the sky. Time and again, their progress is halted: a windswept hat topples their creation; a toddler ambles through it; the tide creeps close, and then too close. Meeting each demolition with fresh determination, the builders outdo themselves time and again, until the moment arrives to pile back into the bus for
