Insuficient Direction

In the explosive finale to the epic romantic saga, Bella has one final choice to make. Should she stay mortal and strengthen her connection to the werewolves, or leave it all behind to become a vampire? When you loved the one who was killing you, it left you no options. How could you run, how could you fight, when doing so would hurt that beloved one? If your life was all you had to give, how could you not give it? If it was someone you truly loved? To be irrevocably in love with a vampire is both fantasy and nightmare woven into a dangerously heightened reality for Bella Swan. Pulled in one direction by her intense passion for Edward Cullen, and in another by her profound connection to werewolf Jacob Black, a tumultuous year of temptation, loss, and strife have led her to the ultimate turning point. Her imminent choice to either join the dark but seductive world of immortals or to pursue a fully human life has become the thread from which the fates of two tribes hangs. This astonishin

The theory of invariance of modules under automorphisms of their envelopes and covers has opened up a whole new direction in the study of module theory. It offers a new perspective on generalizations of injective, pure-injective and flat-cotorsion modules beyond relaxing conditions on liftings of homomorphisms. This has set off a flurry of work in the area, with hundreds of papers using the theory appearing in the last decade. This book gives the first unified treatment of the topic. The authors are real experts in the area, having played a major part in the breakthrough of this new theory and its subsequent applications. The first chapter introduces the basics of ring and module theory needed for the following sections, making it self-contained and suitable for graduate students. The authors go on to develop and explain their tools, enabling researchers to employ them, extend and simplify known results in the literature and to solve longstanding problems in module theory, many of whic

China’s ascent to the ranks of the world’s second largest economic power has given its revolution a better image than that of its Russian counterpart. Yet the two have a great deal in common. Indeed, the Chinese revolution was a carbon copy of its predecessor, until Mao became aware, not so much of the failures of the Russian model, but of its inability to adapt to an overcrowded third-world country. Yet, instead of correcting that model, Mao decided to go further and faster in the same direction. The aftershock of an earthquake may be weaker, but the Great Leap Forward of 1958 in China was far more destructive than the Great Turn of 1929 in the Soviet Union. It was conceived with an idealistic end but failed to take all the possibilities into account. China’s development only took off after—and thanks to—Mao’s death, once the country turned its back on the revolution. Lucien Bianco’s original comparative study highlights the similarities: the all-powerful bureaucracy; the over-explo

David Card and Alan B. Krueger have already made national news with their pathbreaking research on the minimum wage. Here they present a powerful new challenge to the conventional view that higher minimum wages reduce jobs for low-wage workers. In a work that has important implications for public policy as well as for the direction of economic research, the authors put standard economic theory to the test, using data from a series of recent episodes, including the 1992 increase in New Jersey's minimum wage, the 1988 rise in California's minimum wage, and the 1990-91 increases in the federal minimum wage. In each case they present a battery of evidence showing that increases in the minimum wage lead to increases in pay, but no loss in jobs.A distinctive feature of Card and Krueger's research is the use of empirical methods borrowed from the natural sciences, including comparisons between the "treatment" and "control" groups formed when the minimum wag

This is a new interpretation of English politics during the extended period beginning with the majority of Henry VI in c. 1437 up to the accession of Henry VII in 1509. The later fifteenth century in England is a somewhat baffling and apparently incoherent period which historians and history students have found consistently difficult to handle. The large-scale 'revisionism' inspired by the classic work of K. B. McFarlane led to the first real work on politics, both national and local, but has left the period in a disjointed state: much material has been unearthed, but without any real sense of direction or coherence. This book places the events of the century within a clearly delineated framework of constitutional structures, practices and expectations, in an attempt to show the meaning of the apparently frenetic and purposeless political events which occurred within that framework - and which sometimes breached it. At the same time it takes cognisance of all the work that has been don

★ 美國藝術巨擘Jasper Johns經典作品全集解析★ 從國旗、數字到地圖，重新定義「日常圖像」的藝術意義★ 影響普普藝術與觀念藝術的關鍵人物，一本全面認識當熟悉的符號被重新觀看，藝術也因此改變。Jasper Johns以國旗、數字與地圖等「我們早已認識的圖像」為創作核心，讓日常變得陌生而富有意義。自1950年代進入紐約藝術圈以來，他與Robert Rauschenberg共同開創被稱為「新達達」的重要轉向，深刻影響後來的普普藝術與觀念藝術。本書收錄其繪畫、雕塑、版畫與拼貼作品，透過豐富圖像與專家解析，完整呈現其超過半世紀的創作歷程與國際影響力。這不只是作品集，更是一段改寫藝術史的旅程。A handsomely illustrated study of one of the world's greatest contemporary artists, including Johns's most iconic paintings, sculptures, works on paper and collages.Jasper Johns is regarded as one of the most influential artists of the 20th century, and has remained central to American art since his arrival in New York in the 1950s. With his then partner Robert Rauschenberg, Johns helped to establish a decisive new direction in the art world, termed "Neo-Dada" at the time. Johns' striking use of popular iconography, "things the mind already knows," as he put it (flags, numbers, maps), made the familiar unfamiliar--and made a colossal impact in the art world, becoming a touchstone for Pop, min

Most of this richly illustrated book is devoted to the physical aspects of waves. After introducing observation techniques for waves, both at sea and from space, the book defines the parameters that characterise waves. Using basic statistical and physical concepts, the author discusses the prediction of waves in oceanic and coastal waters, first in terms of generalised observations, and then in terms of the more theoretical framework of the spectral energy balance. He gives the results of established theories and also the direction in wh

創造條件推行股票發行註冊制，是“十三五”期間中國股票市場改革的一項重要任務。若要順利推動改革並繼續保持市場穩定，確保股票上市品種、數量和頻率符合投資者預期，適當的股票上市制度必不可少。長期以來，中國在股票發行上市方面的行政約束明顯強於市場約束，現行的交易所市場上市制度內容匱乏且缺少層次性，整體約束力偏弱。本書系統分析了發達股票市場上市制度特徵及其對中國的借鑒意義，研究了中國股票市場上市制度改革的現實基礎，並有針對性地提出了上市制度改革的具體方向、潛在風險和對策建議。作者提出，發達股票市場建立在自由競爭基礎上的多元化上市制度，體現出對擬上市企業更好的包容性，值得中國借鑒。但中國股票市場的現實基礎，又決定了改革不可能一蹴而就，上市制度改革既要適應當前國內企業特點，也應與中國建設多層次股權融資市場的戰略目標相契合，需要與股票發行註冊制改革進行一體化設計。

6周預約你的燦爛未來！更滿意、更專注、更有生產力的理想職涯，無痛實現！ ★英國頂尖亨利商學院選書「2022年度最佳教練類書籍」★ 「後疫時代」我們都站在職涯的十字路口，大環境變動快速，工作型態日新月異，卻也讓人大為煩惱：是要轉職改當數位游牧族？一人公司？或是繼續當穩定的上班族，謀求升遷加薪？還是乾脆躺平，安靜離職？ ▲猶疑不定，正表示你需要「IDEA思維模式」！▲據統計，工作占了我們三分之一的人生，雖然如今職業類型多元化，但不可否認，工作依然大幅影響我們的生命，因此如何找到讓自己快樂的職場天命，是每一個人必修的人生功課。 蓋瑞‧克洛達茲博士在近二十年的職涯教練經驗中，發現一旦缺乏「自我認同」及「方向」，人很容易就會在工作生涯迷航，受困於日漸窄化的思維中，放棄自己的潛力。 他開發出「IDEA思維模式」，以自我認同（Identity）、方向（Direction）、參與（Engagement）和本真（Authenticity）四項核心原則，在為期6周的探索課程中，透過深度提問和自我分析，帶領你一步一步釐清自己的技能優勢和期望，並制訂行動計畫，連接目前所在的位置和未來理想的職涯。 你將逐一深度探索：˙工作生涯中最重要的需求˙設定你的願景、目的和目標，以及三者的差異˙如何騰出時間思考˙評估行動計畫的優先順序和難易度˙觀察、記錄自己的情緒變化 ▲光是思考還不夠，更要「動手寫下來」！▲研究證實「書寫」有助於目標實現，因此本書規劃大量的表格和筆記欄位，讓你寫下針對每一個問題的答案和洞見，不只是將思緒實體化，更是開啟「行動」開關的關鍵步驟。過去的你，或許都只停留在想想的階段，這一次，讓「寫下來」為你發揮最大力量，獲得清晰的思路、自信與平靜，以及放開那些拖慢你腳步的事情。你會發現，讓工作與天賦、熱情和財富對齊，的確唾手可得！

AI能寫作、能畫圖、能運算，人類還剩下什麼？在AI取代人類效率的時代，我們唯一能勝出的，是感知的深度。我們學會了深度工作、深度學習，卻忘了如何深度生活。從旅行、藝術、建築、自然到日常的每一刻，找回遺失的「感知力」，在高度變動的世界，重新感受、思考、設計你的生活。◆作者運用「理性背景（矽谷-哈佛）」和「感性訴求（生活-美學）」，提供你關於「深度生活」的省思和療癒。◆破解「競爭」與「躺平」的二元對立（TheThirdPath），本書提供「積極的平靜」（ActiveCalmness）。你依然可以追求事業成就，但你的內在動力不再是恐懼，而是對生活的熱愛與感知。你可以在工作中得到意義和成就，同時擁有深刻、豐富、多元、真正喜歡的生活，而不是被迫在「拚命」和「放棄」之間二選一。◆本書是理科腦的感性覺醒，作者用產品經理（PM）的邏輯去分析與優化生活體驗，用建築學的視角去「重構」日常容器。這種跨領域的洞察，例如比較巴黎與東京的城市設計對心理健康的影響、比較泰勒式管理與工匠精神等，是本書最大亮點。◆透過深度生活EAR模型「探索（Explore）、欣賞（Appreciate）、反思（Reflect）」這三個練習，找回自己的感受力，找回看世界的廣度與深度，更能決定你要走什麼樣的職涯和人生路。◆人生不是一條線，是投資組合／一座花園。如何根據自己的狀態與階段，動態調整這座花園的配置，不被「工作至上」的價值觀綁架，從馬斯克式的工時浪漫神話中抽身，拿回對自己人生組合的主導權。◆AI時代的人本護城河――「感知力」（Sensibility）。感受風的溫度、欣賞建築的光影、在旅行中與陌生人連結，這些是AI做不到的。本書強調「深度生活」是AI時代人類最後的護城河，也是最高級的競爭力。「『深度生活』對我來說，無關於速度快或慢，也不是要你在競爭與躺平之間二選一。它提出一個更根本的問題：在這樣快速變動的世界，你是否仍然握著人生的方向盤？深度生活，不是退出世界，而是在高度加速的環境裡，重新拿回感受、判斷與反思的能力。不是把人生變得更輕，而是讓它重新變得有重量、有靈魂，也有選擇的餘地。如果你也感到焦慮、迷惘，或隱約覺得哪裡不太對，希望這本書，能陪你一起，把人生從單一軸線，重新展開成一個更立體、更寬廣，更能自在呼吸的世界。」──本書作者黃鈺茹 BastianeHuang「未經審視的生命，不值得活。」――蘇格拉底長期在

7大面向、27個訊號為你建立大局觀的心智模式，從更高更廣的角度概觀世界走向★領域專家強力推薦Jenny／JC財經觀點創辦人安納金／暢銷財經作家孫明德／台灣經濟研究院景氣預測中心主任陳?／新世代金融基金會董事長愛榭克（Izaax）／《Smart智富》專欄作家蔡依橙／「陪你看國際新聞」創辦人謝劍平／台灣科技大學財金所教授（依姓名筆畫排序）★亞馬遜「總體經濟」、「個體經濟」雙榜暢銷冠軍！★大開本、全彩印刷、全資訊圖解，一目了然，好讀易懂資訊爆炸看似無窮無盡，但人腦判讀處理資料的能力卻有限。對於決策者來說，手握更多資料正逐漸成為一把雙刃劍。我們希望這些資料能提供有益見解，讓我們更深入了解這個世界——不過，有很多時候，新資料到頭來都會落得理不清、愈理愈亂，甚至還相互矛盾。資料愈多，無可避免會涉及更錯綜複雜的情況，儘管世界上的訊息唾手可得，但是要歸結出能造就未來趨勢的根源，卻比以往還要難。儘管雜訊會讓資訊愈來愈模糊曖昧，但我們仍舊相信，有些再清楚不過的重點，即所謂的「訊號」，能透過視覺化的力量躍然紙上，被大家讀懂。本書由擅長使用視覺方式呈現數據資料的「視覺圖解資本家」（Visual Capitalist）團隊從零開始製作，在評估了數以千計的資料集後，選定27個關鍵「訊號」，以兼具設計美感、清晰邏輯且易於理解的視覺方式，呈現「訊號起源→核心本質→更多角度→分析影響」，旨在以資料導向的方法，指出即將定義全球經濟未來10年的趨勢重點。這27個訊號涵蓋7大面向：1. 社會及人口統計；2. 環境；3. 數位世界；4. 科技創新；5. 貨幣與市場；6. 消費者行為；7. 地緣政治格局。觸及的主題包括：1. 人口老化：家庭計畫、晚婚、生育率下降、壽命延長，讓全球人口的平均年齡不斷上升。人口老化將從根本上改變全球的社會結構，年輕人的負擔加重，卻也敲開了規模15兆美元的銀髮商機。台灣的人口老化程度，在2050年時將高居全球第三。2. 水資源短缺：人口成長、魚蝦養殖與食肉量攀升、水質汙染、濕地與地下水消退，讓原本就吃緊的水資源面臨更大壓力，致使搶水衝突事件遽增，許多國家將面臨旱象與水資源問題。3. 電從哪裡來：各界希望降低對化石燃料的依賴、電動車崛起、個人裝置激增，導致許多產品與服務轉而依賴電力。全球電力需求驟升，提高再生能源占比勢在必行。4. 個資外洩：個人裝置連上網路、遠端工作興起、網路安全觀

暢銷書作家冒牌生與兩位網路人氣少男少女的跨世代對話！ 19歲的佩諭和宇晨代表年輕人， 丟出他們心中最疑惑的大問號： 和擁有正向思考的冒牌生對話。 冒牌生並針對青春、友情、夢想、愛情、熱血等議題， 寫了110則短文語錄， 為年輕人一語點破心中迷惘。 何謂「中二症」？ 中學二年級左右，因逐漸成形的價值觀與尚未脫離幼稚的想法互相混雜而產生的成長狀態。 用以揶揄叛逆期的青少年過於自以為是或自我滿足的言行，也漸漸演變成青春期特有思想、行動、價值觀的總稱。 關於青春 ◎方向 Direction 生活有許多的十字路口，十字路口都有指標，每個指標都指著一個方向，但站在十字路口的交點，該怎麼走總讓人捉摸不定。 很多人總說：「現在的位置不重要，重要的是前進的方向。」其實生活更像是一艘船，前進的方向固然重要，掌握自己的所在的原點更是需要釐清的關鍵。 沒有原點，又該怎麼前進。不要擔心，現在的我們就算不曉得該朝著那個方向前進，但可以待在一個地方，保留一個位置，思考怎麼走，走多久；怎麼愛，愛多久。停留片刻以後，繞了一圈，原點自然會浮現，方向就會清晰可見。 關於友情 ◎真心An Honest Friend 真心的朋友，不怕相見恨晚， 因為相見恨晚後會讓彼此更珍惜接下來的所有回憶；他不會只關注你走得有多遠，而是關心你走得累不累；當你的臉上消失笑容的時候，會毫不吝嗇的給你微笑。 真心的朋友，不會因為距離改變，也不會因為相處時間變短消散，反而會像一瓶好酒，愈陳愈香；就算不一定每天能見面， 但你清楚知道，他們一直都在。真心的朋友，懂得你所有的欲言又止，那些和你之間微不足道的小事，最終都會變成溫暖回憶和珍貴片段。 這條人生的路上，真心朋友可遇不可求，如果幸運遇上一、兩個那就足夠。 關於夢想 ◎執著Stick to 掛在嘴邊的不一定最真實；放進心中的才是。如果你遇到困難想要放棄，不要急著說別無選擇，也許在下個路口你就會遇見希望。 因為對夢想你應該要有一個執著的理由，你或許會問，為何別人總是得到，而你卻看不到遠方的希望？ 其實，那些得到的人不是從未失去過，而是他們沒有執著失去， 也沒有選擇放棄。生活就是這樣，你以為失去的可能正在來到，你以為得到的可能默默離開，把困難把你變得更好，而不是更苦澀。勇氣是一個人最大的貴人，你真的可以再堅定一點。 關於愛情 ◎告白Say I Lov

「作者復興了這個古老的靈修技巧。它能幫助你深入自己的意識深處，並接收宇宙的正能量，進而顯化你的夢想。」──喬‧維泰利博士（Dr. Joe Vitale），《零極限》作者。「這個憾動人心的技巧會幫助你突破個人限制，發現自己的不凡之處，並創造新穎又充滿驚喜的人生。」──布蘭特‧平維迪克（Brant Pinvidic），《簡短卻強大的3分鐘簡報》作者。「想化解生活中反覆出現的困境，遠離小我的意識與習慣，探索自己的無限潛能，自動書寫就是最好的心海羅盤。」──道森・丘吉（Dawson Church），《超悅大腦：科學證實幸福感可以自己創造，加速實現理想人生》作者。無需技巧、沒有壓力，最能釋放負能量、召喚正向磁場的心靈寫作法匈牙利科學家、未來學大師拉胥羅（Ervin Laszlo）專文推薦自動書寫是一種歷史悠久的靈性技巧，許多古文明都有記載，修行者透過無意識地書寫，以接受神的訊息與指導。在東方世界，道教也有所謂的「扶鸞」占卜。到了十九世紀末，精神分析學派的佛洛伊德跟榮格則是用自動書寫來探索潛意識的奧祕。近年來，在許多新時代運動者的提倡下，自動書寫成為結合冥想、祈禱的療癒工具。本書作者麥可‧山德勒曾是卓越的自行車與馬拉松選手，但發生了兩次致命的意外後，運動生涯被迫中斷，經濟狀況也陷入瓶頸。在接觸過阿卡西的心靈書寫後，他轉化成更容易入門的自動書寫法，並時時徵求靈性的指引，於是人生開始從谷底回彈。特別的是，這套簡易版的自動書寫法，不管有無宗教信仰的人都適用。你可以選擇跟天使、指導靈、宇宙、佛祖任何一種高等存在對話，也可以尋求自己內在智慧的洞見。方法如下：1.盡可能在天亮前早起，並保持空腹。2.獨自找個不受打擾的幽暗處冥想十分鐘。3.拿出紙筆，寫下你的禱告話語，並祈請你的靈性導師或夥伴前來。4.寫下問題，並且不中斷、不加思考地開始書寫十五分鐘。5.最後得出自己意想不到答案或深埋已久的線索。平常我們習於動腦寫作，所以一開始會手足無措，而這就是擺脫慣常思考模式的練習。在書中，作者會先提供三個關鍵的問題：今天該知道什麼、我是誰、今天的任務為何，讓讀者當作入門的練習題，也有提供三十天挑戰計畫。除了療癒創傷、調整身心之外，你還能夠透過自動書寫賺進八種財富：時間、健康、金錢、友情、心靈、職涯、創意和家庭。最重要的是，你會成為心靈開放的生命勇士，不只改善自己的生活，還因為能放下小我，而能找出更有效的
