The twenty-four contributions in Look at the Coins! reflect the vast scope of Joe Cribb's interests, including Asian numismatics, museology, poetry and art. The papers are arranged geographically, then chronologically or thematically. The first seven papers look at coins, charms and silver currencies in or from China: Chinese coin-shaped charms, Han dynasty gold unearthed in the Tomb of the Marquis of Haihun, Jiangxi, silver in the history of Chinese currency, a metallurgical and historical study of Song dynasty coins, the Department of Iron Coins at Dongtangzi Hutong in Beijing and the only known annotated plan of a Chinese mint, the six million dollars in silver of the Canton Ransom, and a hoard of Chinese coins found in Turkey. One paper focuses on the coins and medals of the two Pahlavi Shahs of Iran. Nine papers look at finds from ancient Central Asia and Afghanistan: coins of South Soghd in the first two centuries AD, the identity of the rider on Indo-Greek coins, the phonology of Greek names in Kharoṣṭhī script, questions of identity and interpretation in Gandharan reliefs, first-century AD coins in stūpa deposits and the beginning of the Buddhist relic cult in Afghanistan, a hoard of Kushan gold coins from Swabi, Gandhāran Jātakas, Avadānas and Pūrvayogas, Indian imitations of Kushan coins, and a new gold coin of Vasudeva I. Four papers relate to India: Roman coins found in India, ‘Heraṇika'in the inscriptions of the Western Deccan (c. 200 BC–300), the peck and shroff marks of sixteenth-century North India, and Henry Ernest Stapleton and the coin collection in the Heberden Coin Room, Ashmolean Museum, Oxford. Two papers relate to South East Asia: one revisits the Stamford Raffles'Collections, and the other discusses a hybrid pendant found in Thailand. The last contribution celebrates some of Joe's less well-known interests: poetry, art medals and art photography.

The monk Tangseng has harsh words for his eldest disciple, the monkey king Sun Wukong. His pride hurt, Sun Wukong complains to the Bodhisattva Guanyin and asks to be released from his service to the monk. She refuses his request. This leads to a case of mistaken identity and an earthshaking battle that begins in the sky over the monkey's home on Flower Fruit Mountain, moves through the palaces of heaven and the depths of the underworld, and ends in front of the Buddha himself.

It is based on the events in Chapters 56 through 58 of the epic 16th century novel of the same name by Wu Chen'en.

Über dieses Buch: Dieses Buch diskutiert Funktionen und Potenziale des Hànyǔ Pīnyīn im Unterricht des Chinesischen als Fremdsprache (ChaF) – mit Beiträgen von Expertinnen und Experten aus Deutschland, Österreich, der Schweiz und den USA, die sich mit diesem Thema in Theorie und Praxis intensiv beschäftigt und umfangreiche Erfahrungen mit dem Hànyǔ-Pīnyīn-Einsatz im ChaF-Unterricht gesammelt haben. Thematisiert werden neben üblichen Anwendungen (Ausspracheunterricht und Angabe der Lautung von Schriftzeichen) vor allem Fragen der Förderung vielfältiger mündlicher und schriftlicher Kompetenzen – einschließlich des Leseverständnisses für Schriftzeichentexte – im Unterricht für diverse Zielgruppen und Niveaustufen. Dabei wird auf entsprechende Didaktik-Konzepte, Unterrichtsorganisation, Gestaltung von Curricula und Lehrwerken in der gymnasialen wie universitären ChaF-Ausbildung eingegangen. Auch die wichtige Rolle des Hànyǔ Pīnyīn bei der digitalen Verarbeitung des Chinesischen sowie bei der Nutzung digitaler Hilfsmittel zum Erwerb der chinesischen Sprache und Schrift wird einbezogen. Alle Beitragenden eint die Überzeugung, dass der fokussierte Einsatz von Hànyǔ Pīnyīn für bestimmte Lernziele und Lerngruppen und in bestimmten Phasen des Chinesischerwerbs die Entwicklung vieler sprachlicher Kompetenzen fördert, wenn auch in manchen Aspekten und Details unterschiedliche Herangehensweisen und Standpunkte deutlich werden. Insgesamt bietet der Band Anregungen für die vertiefte Diskussion und Erforschung der Potenziale des Hànyǔ-Pīnyīn-Einsatzes im Unterricht der chinesischen Sprache und Zeichenschrift. About this book: This book discusses the functions and potential of Hànyǔ Pīnyīn for teaching Chinese as a foreign language (TCFL). It contains contributions from experts from Germany, Austria, Switzerland and the USA, who have looked at this topic both from a theoretical and practical perspective, and have gained extensive experience on how to use Hànyǔ Pīnyīn in TCFL. In addition to common applications (pronunciation instruction and indication of character pronunciation), the main focus is on the promotion of diverse oral and written skills – including reading comprehension of character texts – when teaching various target groups and at different levels. The corresponding didactic concepts, organization of teaching units, design of curricula and textbooks in high school and university Chinese language education are also discussed. Furthermore, the book addresses the important role of Hànyǔ Pīnyīn in digital processing of Chinese as well as in the use of digital tools supporting Chinese language and script acquisition. All contributors share the conviction that the targeted use of Hànyǔ Pīnyīn for specific teaching goals and learner groups and in specific phases of Chinese language acquisition promotes the development of various language skills, even if they sometimes employ different approaches and perspectives. Overall, the book provides suggestions on how to further discuss and explore the potentials of Hànyǔ Pīnyīn in teaching the Chinese language and its character script.

He is given a job in heaven taking care of the Emperor's Garden of Immortal Peaches, but he can't stop himself from eating all the peaches. He impersonates a great Immortal and crashes a party in Heaven, stealing the guests'food and drink and barely escaping to his loyal troop of monkeys back on Earth. And in the end, he battles an entire army of Immortals and men, and discovers that even calling himself the Great Sage Equal to Heaven does not make him equal to everyone in Heaven. This is the 3rd book in the best-selling Journey to the West series of stories for students learning to read Chinese. It is based on the events in Chapters 5 through 7 of the epic 16th century novel of the same name by Wu Chen'en. That novel was inspired by an actual journey by the Buddhist monk Tangseng (formerly called Xuanzang), who traveled from Chang'an westward to India in 629 A.D. and returned seventeen years later with priceless knowledge and spiritual texts. Over the course of the book Tangseng and his companions face the 81 tribulations that Tangseng had to endure to attain Buddhahood.

He escapes with the help of a mysterious old man, only to be attacked on the road later by tigers, snakes and more monsters. Eventually he meets the Monkey King, Sun Wukong. Together they face bandits and wild animals, and Sun Wukong must make a difficult decision. This is the 6th book in the best-selling Journey to the West series of stories for students learning to read Chinese. It is based on the events in Chapters 12 through 14 of the epic 16th century novel of the same name by Wu Chen'en. That novel was inspired by an actual journey by the Buddhist monk Xuanzang, who traveled from Chang'an westward to India in 629 A.D. and returned seventeen years later with priceless knowledge and spiritual texts. Over the course of the book Tangseng and his companions face the 81 tribulations that Tangseng had to endure to attain Buddhahood.

This book contains the complete text, in Chinese, pinyin and English, of all 31 books in the best-selling Journey to the West series of graded readers by Jeff Pepper and Xiao Hui Wang. If printed in standard paperback format this book would run over 3,500 pages. It is written for people who are learning to read Simplified Chinese and want to enjoy a fascinating story while gaining a better understanding of Chinese history and culture. Journey to the West is probably the most famous and best-loved novel in China and is considered one of the four great classical novels of Chinese literature. Its place in Chinese literature is roughly comparable to Homer's epic poem The Odyssey in Western literature. Wikipedia sums up the book's role perfectly, saying,'Enduringly popular, the tale is at once a comic adventure story, a humorous satire of Chinese bureaucracy, a spring of spiritual insight, and an extended allegory in which the group of pilgrims journeys towards enlightenment by the power and virtue of cooperation.'This book is NOT a literal translation of the original novel, which was written in the 16th century and is difficult for modern readers. It is a graded reader, which means that it uses a restricted vocabulary of Chinese words and a simple sentence structure. It starts off relatively easy and gradually increases in complexity. For example the first story, Rise of the Monkey King, covers the events in the first two chapters of the novel and uses a vocabulary of just 507 words. The second story, Trouble in Heaven, covers the next two chapters and uses only 431 words. Each chapter adds, on the average, about 30 new words, and so by the time you finish the final story, called The Last Trial, you will have seen over two thousand different Chinese words. Each paragraph of Chinese is followed by the same paragraph written in pinyin, which is a phonetic method of writing Chinese. The pinyin lets you sound out the word if you don't recognize the characters. We recommend that when you read this on an e-reader, you scroll the text or cover the pinyin with a piece of paper, so that the pinyin is not visible on the screen. Try to read the Chinese characters, and only refer to the pinyin if you are completely stumped by some characters. If you still don't recognize the word, look it up in the glossary at the end of the book. Every time a Chinese word is used for the first time, it is highlighted and followed by a footnote link. Follow that link to see a definition of the new word. There are also footnote links without highlights, and you can read those to see useful and interesting bits of information about the story and the characters that you encounter. At the end of the book is a complete English translation of each chapter. This English translation does not necessarily match the Chinese word for word, but you can refer to it to get a general understanding of the meaning of a paragraph. Finally, there are audiobook versions of all 31 books available. You can use these to listen to a native Chinese speaker tell the story while you follow along with the text. The audiobooks are available on YouTube on the Imagin8 Press channel. You can also download them from the Imagin8 Press website. The 31 stories in this book are also available as standalone books, in paperback and ebook formats.

The monk Tangseng and his three disciples are nearing the end of their epic journey. They approach Thunderclap Monastery in India, the home of Tathagata Buddha. But Tangseng's ordeals are not over yet. First, the travelers are mistaken for murderers and thieves and must talk their way out of jail with some help from Sun Wukong's body-changing magic. When they finally arrive at the home of the Buddha, Tangseng asks for the holy scriptures which he plans to bring back to China. But it turns out that he has only endured eighty trials, one fewer than the 81 that are required of him. And bringing back the Buddhist scriptures turns out to be much more difficult than the pilgrims expected. This is the 31st and final book in the best-selling Journey to the West series of stories for students learning to read Simplified Chinese. It is based on the events in Chapters 96 through 100 of the epic 16th century novel of the same name by Wu Chen'en. That novel was inspired by an actual journey by the Buddhist monk Tangseng, who traveled from Chang'an (today's Xi'an) westward to India in 629 A.D. and returned seventeen years later with priceless knowledge and spiritual texts. Over the course of the book the four travelers face the 81 trials that Tangseng had to endure to attain Buddhahood. The entire Journey to the West story has been told using a total of about 2,000 different Chinese words, but only 1,112 are used in this book. We introduce 25 new words for the first time, and each one is defined on the page where it is first used. The book includes pinyin, an English translation, and a full glossary. A free audiobook is available at www.imagin8press.com, and on YouTube's Imagin8 Press channel.

A wealthy girl runs away with her cousin, a poor stonecarver. A scholar finds true love inside a book. Two lovers defy death to be together. And a young man finds love with two ghosts. Believe it or not, it's possible for you to read and understand the four wonderful love stories in this book even if you start off not knowing a single word of Chinese! We won't lie to you and say it will be easy, but with time and patience you can certainly do it. Each page of Chinese faces a page of pinyin (phonetic spelling), so if you don't recognize a word, you can check the pinyin to see how it's pronounced. You can then look up the word's meaning in the glossary in the back of the book. A full English translation is also included. You can also listen to a complete audiobook of all the stories, available free on YouTube and downloadable from our website. These stories are written by the best-selling writing team of Jeff Pepper and Xiao Hui Wang, authors of the Journey to the West series of graded readers, translations of Chinese classics including the Dao De Jing, the Art of War, and the San Zi Jing, and lots of other great books.

Welcome to 三字经, San Zi Jing, known in English as the Three Character Classic. Originally written by Wang Yinglin during the Song Dynasty in the 13th century, modified many times since then and memorized by generations of Chinese students, the San Zi Jing is a box of treasures, a puzzle within a puzzle, with layers of meaning waiting for you to discover. At the simplest level, San Zi Jing is just a workbook, a way for you to learn how to read, speak and write Chinese. But it's more than a workbook, it's a grand tour of Chinese history. It starts off with brief stories about Confucian values and principles, then shifts gears and takes us on a dizzying historical journey, starting with the legendary Yellow Emperor back in the misty beginnings of Chinese culture, and leading up to the end of the last dynasty in 1912. San Zi Jing is also a window into the soul of China. Many of the verses provide bits of Confucian philosophy, or hint at stories told centuries ago. Even the historical verses in the middle of the book show us what life in China was like in the past, and give you a glimpse of how Chinese people see the world today. Read the San Zi Jing carefully, and you'll get a glimpse of what it's like to be Chinese.

The river-dwelling monster Sha Wujing was once the Curtain Raising Captain, but was banished from heaven by the Yellow Emperor for breaking an extremely valuable cup during a drunken visit to the Peach Festival. Later, the Buddhist monk Tangseng and his disciples arrive at a beautiful home seeking a simple vegetarian meal and a place to stay for the night. What they encounter instead is a lovely and wealthy widow and her three even more lovely daughters. This meeting is, of course, much more than it appears to be, and it turns into a test of commitment and virtue for all of the pilgrims, especially for the lazy and lustful Zhu Bajie. This is the 9th book in the best-selling Journey to the West series of stories for students learning to read Chinese. It is based on the events in Chapters 22 and 23 of the epic 16th century novel of the same name by Wu Chen'en. That novel was inspired by an actual journey by the Buddhist monk Tangseng, who traveled from Chang'an westward to India in 629 A.D. and returned seventeen years later with priceless knowledge and spiritual texts. Over the course of the book Tangseng and his companions face the 81 tribulations that Tangseng had to endure to attain Buddhahood. The first 9 books in the Journey to the West series have used a total of about 1200 different Chinese words, but only 630 are used in this book. All new words are defined on the page where they are first used. The book uses Simplified Chinese characters and includes pinyin, an English translation, and a full glossary. A free audiobook is available on YouTube's Imagin8 Press channel and on www.imagin8press.com.

This report analyses the state of the world economy, a year and half after the Covid-19 outbreak was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization. The first part of the Report outlines key macro-financial aspects of the global economy, focusing, in particular, on the prospects for a growth recovery while analyzing possible threats from public and private debt, from inflationary spikes as well as from a return to the policies of the past. It pays particular attention to the situation of developing countries in the system of global finance, and discusses issues of debt sustainability. As this year marks its 40th anniversary, the Report also revisits the analyses provided in previous editions in response to shocks, setbacks, and crises that have hampered development during the era of hyperglobalization and underscores its abiding call for an inclusive global economic governance. The second part focuses on climate adaptation. It calls for a transformative approach to climate adaptation, with large-scale public investment programmes to adapt to future as well as current threats, and green industrial policies to drive growth and job creation. It also details reforms of the international financial system needed to get more climate adaptation funds flowing to developing countries.

Things begin to unravel for Sun Wukong as he sees the consequences of his outrageous actions. While trying to defend his troop of monkeys, he manages to offend the underwater Dragon King, the Dragon Kong's mother, all ten Kings of the Underworld, and the great Jade Emperor himself. Finally, goaded by a couple of troublemaking demons, he goes too far, calling himself the Great Sage Equal to Heaven and setting events in motion that cause him some serious trouble. This is the second book in the best-selling Journey to the West series of stories for students learning to read Chinese. It is based on the events in Chapters 3 and 4 of the epic 16th century novel of the same name by Wu Chen'en. That novel was inspired by an actual journey by the Buddhist monk Tangseng (formerly called Xuanzang), who traveled from Chang'an westward to India in 629 A.D. and returned seventeen years later with priceless knowledge and spiritual texts. Over the course of the book Tangseng and his companions face the 81 tribulations that Tangseng had to endure to attain Buddhahood. The first two books in the Journey to the West series have used a total of about 600 different Chinese words, but only 432 are used in this book. There are 46 new words introduced in this book, and each one is defined on the page where it is first used. The book uses Simplified Chinese characters and includes pinyin, an English translation, and a full glossary. A free audiobook is available on YouTube's Imagin8 Press channel and on www.imagin8press.com.

The story of Cinderella is possibly the world's most popular folk tale. The earliest known version is from Greece around two thousand years ago, and over the next thousand years, it traveled to France, Italy and Germany, and eventually to the Walt Disney studio in America. But as the Cinderella story traveled from Greece to Western Europe, it was also carried eastward to Asia along the Silk Road and other ancient trade routes. The story of Ye Xian in this book is the oldest known Asian version, first appearing in a book of folk tales by Duan Chengshi in 860 AD. That story was told in just 750 Chinese words. The Ye Xian story matches the modern Cinderella story more closely than later European versions. But unlike the Disney movie, it does not simply end with the heroine marrying and living happily ever after. The story is more complex and more interesting, showing Zhuang, Hindu, Buddhist, and Chinese influences. In this book, the best-selling writing team of Pepper and Wang retell this wonderful story using just 417 different Chinese words, most of which are in the standard 1200-word HSK4 vocabulary. This limited vocabulary makes the story easily accessible to beginning and intermediate students of Chinese. A glossary of all words is in the back of the book, along with an English translation. A free audiobook version is available on the Imagin8 Press channel of YouTube, and also at www.imagin8press.com.

战略稳定性理论源于冷战期间，用于分析美国和苏联两个超级大国之间的核武器相互威慑关系，但是经典战略稳定性理论无法适用于不对称核力量结构，如中国与美国之间。 本书研究的是：如何构建一种适用于不对称核力量结构的战略稳定性理论？以中美核战略关系为案例，重点关注中国与美国之间的战略稳定性。 书中的核心概念是“第一次打击不确定性”，即令潜在进攻方领导人不确定能否实现百分百成功的第一次打击。中美战略稳定性可以定义为中美双方都没有动机首先使用核武器，稳定的条件是中国能够维持足够高的第一次打击不确定性。 研究内容包括中国核力量发展的历史、中外领导人对中国核报复能力的认知、中国和主要潜在对手核交战数学模型、中国核力量生存能力技术分析、中美非有意核升级、中美战略稳定性评估和维持中美战略稳定性的建议。书中结合自然科学技术和政治学研究方法，修正和扩展了经典战略稳定性理论，可以为中美战略对话和未来的军控谈判提供理论基础和技术框架。

本书收录论文五篇，内容均是考察19世纪前半期基督新教传教士中文著译中的词语。 第一篇探讨的是一个今天常见于书刊、报章上，我们习以为常的汉译专名“大英（国）”。通过历史、清廷外交文书制度、思想史、词汇学等视角，著者细致深入追溯鲜为人知有关它的诞生历史背景、早期书写实践、在鸦片战争前后英国为取得与中国“敌体平行”坚持使用它，引发与清廷冲突，以及最终它白纸黑字出现在《江宁条约》后对中国外交所产生的深远影响，等等。 在进行近现代汉语新词追根溯源时，有些学者由于甚少使用明清古籍，特别19世纪上半叶新教传教士中文著译语料，导致所得结论或有偏差，新教传教士在汉语词汇学史上的地位变得极不显著。本书后四篇即对新教传教士马礼逊、米怜、郭实猎及麦嘉缔著译中一些汉译地名、宗教、天文、地理、政治、动物等词语求源溯本，厘清它们的“词籍”与诞生年份，确定其中有些是袭用明末清初耶稣会士中文译著、中国古籍里，以及18世纪末19世纪初在澳门、广州以及东南亚一带流行的一些新词新语，有些则为马礼逊等人所创译，从而奠定新教传教士在汉语词汇史上承前启后的地位。 本书由八方文化创作室与新跃社科大学（SUSS）新跃中华学术中心联合出版，是'新跃人文'系列丛书的第十二册。

陈笃生是新加坡华人社会极具影响力的领袖，亦是新加坡最杰出的开拓者之一。1820年代初期，陈笃生响应莱佛士爵士打造新加坡自由港的号召，遂成为日后的优秀企业头家，更崛起为华人社会的领袖翘楚。同时，他也是大慈善家，领导福建社群修筑天福宫，使其成为福建人的中心；亦创建陈笃生医院，为新加坡人提供医疗照护。 本书对陈笃生的一生作了全面的记述，追溯他的生平事迹乃至其所遗留下来的宝贵资产，亦论述陈笃生及其家族所做出的贡献。陈氏家族人才辈出，本书也涵括陈金钟、陈德源、陈武烈、陈齐贤、陈温祥等人的生平足迹，他们功名显赫，建树颇丰，对新加坡乃至区域周边国家社会，产生了巨大的影响。 通过对陈氏家族成员生平及贡献的书写，我们得以一窥殖民时期海外华人移民的社会、政治及商业运作各层面。他们的财富资产甚至跨越了新加坡地界，凸显出南洋华人的分布形态及其区域经商网络。在新加坡历史进程的大框架和各种事件、里程碑之外，这些故事亦带来了多元性和差异性，能让公众更好地去理解和审视新加坡。

費德歷‧史釗域生於蘇格蘭鴨巴甸郡的北辰區，同時代的人許他為「香港官辦教育之父」。他既是香港政府教育司署的首任署長，也是皇仁書院（前稱中央學校）在1862年創校時的校長。直至香港大學於1911年成立前，該校一直是香港的頂尖學府。史釗域及後除了出任總登記官兼撫華道，更成為首位獲擢升實任輔政司的香港公務員，並不時署任總督職務。臨終前，他仍是「政府在教育事務上的首席顧問」。從史釗域的生平，足可一窺香港社會的昔日全貌，因為他曾任職教師、裁判司及官員，會跟來自中國、葡萄牙、印度、日本及跨文化家庭的人交往。其時正值東西文化交匯的歷史時刻，史釗域深明自己的角色，也知道自己正在促成中國人思想的現代化。他向學生灌輸西方知識時，不單維持他們對中華文化的認同，也堅持相等的中文及英文學習時間。他雖然為人靦腆、低調和拘謹，但深受華人、外國人及葡萄牙人歡迎。史釗域也是一位香港通。當他物故時，就被目為當時在港外籍人士之中，對香港認識最為深入的一人。1997年不但是本書初版之年，更適值香港迎來巨變。重新評價中西持續交流的目的，以及評說各種促進合作時用上的教育及文化方法，正是其時。

COVID-19疫情暴露了农业粮食体系在遭受冲击和压力时的不堪一击，同时还加剧了全球粮食不安全和营养不良。全世界亟需采取行动，提高农业粮食体系的韧性、效率、可持续性和包容性。 《2021年粮食及农业状况》提出了国家层面的农业粮食体系韧性指标。这些指标旨在衡量初级生产和粮食供应的稳健程度，以及在物质上和经济上获取粮食的机会；因此，有助于评估国家农业粮食体系消化冲击和压力的能力 — 这也是评估韧性的关键方面。

★耶魯大學長紅20年的戰略大師課★ ★投資銀行摩根大通必讀清單★ ★Amazon歷史書籍排行NO.1、領導力與管理力暢銷書★ 跨越時間、空間與規模的最高戰略思維 綜觀歷史、俯瞰全局 眾領導者需知：「力量越大，犯蠢事的風險也越大。」 蓋迪斯藉歷史告訴領導者：如何兼具宏觀與識微、如何做選擇、何時下決定──更重要的是，如何不輸？ ★精粹20年經典課程、窮盡畢生功力 ★培養刺蝟的深刻洞見、狐狸的開闊眼界 蓋迪斯《大戰略》跨越時間、空間、規模的戰略典範，探看領導者、將領、史學家的經驗與思考方式。 本書探看人生當中諸多需要做抉擇、判斷的關鍵時刻，細說屋大維與安東尼的爭權奪位、奧古斯丁與馬基維利對國家的思辨、軍事思想家克勞塞維茨的戰略兵法、英國女王伊莉莎白的統治之道、美國總統林肯在南北戰爭中的謀略，以及羅斯福又為何在眾人避之惟恐不及時，堅持參與二戰等歷史事件。 蓋迪斯借用政治哲學家柏林的主張，指出世上有「狐狸」、「刺蝟」兩類人；「狐狸」機巧、靈活，視野廣闊、綜觀天下事，擅長臨場應變；「刺蝟」以一種理念理解全世界、見解深刻。許多領導者思考一輩子，想在狐狸與刺蝟間做抉擇，然而蓋迪斯認為，引領眾人的領導者，需要的不是選邊站或獨尊一種說法，能否掌握相背觀點之間的連結才是關鍵。領導者須既是「狐狸」也是「刺蝟」，唯有身兼兩種角色，才能掌握現實世界的矛盾與衝突，化解反向的力量，破除阻礙、邁向成功。 不限於空間、時間的《大戰略》，是讓領導者掌握自己、開闊眼界、看透全局、扭轉局勢的重要心法。

個人崇拜，是暴政的核心 二十世紀的獨裁者，如何精心打造受人民景仰的虛偽形象 同樣的招數，是否也正在當今社會上演？ 《經濟學人》2019年度最佳選書 《解放的悲劇》、《文化大革命》作者 揭露當代中國真相的歷史學家 馮客 全新力作 二十世紀八大獨裁者： 義大利——墨索里尼 德國——希特勒 蘇聯——史達林 中國——毛澤東 北韓——金日成 海地——杜瓦利埃 羅馬尼亞——希奧塞古 衣索比亞——門格斯圖 整個二十世紀，無數的人民在為自己的獨裁領袖喝采， 即使他們因此淪落成了奴隸…… 獨裁政權無法光靠恐懼和暴力來統治國家，赤裸裸的權力可以暫時奪過來握在手中，但長遠來看永遠都嫌不夠。有辦法讓人民讚揚自己，才有辦法在位子上待久一點。現代獨裁者的弔詭之處在於，他必須製造出民眾支持的假象。 在《獨裁者養成之路》一書中，馮客回顧了二十世紀八個最有影響力的獨裁元首。從精心編排的遊行到嚴格的審查制度，這些刻意打造而成的神祕面紗，讓獨裁者可以不斷地粉飾自己的形象，並且鼓勵廣大人民來歌頌他們。 馮客以絲絲入扣的敘事，檢視了人格的神化如何生根、茁壯、鞏固，證明個人崇拜就是暴政的核心！ 書評 跳脫既有的成見，延續馮客之前的毛澤東研究，提醒我們，握有權力的意識形態在目前的「自由主義危機」中是如何控制大量人民的心。他嘗試從各種方面去剖析集權主義，從毛澤東到「爸爸醫生」杜瓦利埃，辛辣地簡述了每一個獨裁者的生平。馮客獨具隻眼地指出，反文明的罪行就是反人類的罪行。 ——《紐約客》（New Yorker） 馮客以嚴謹學術態度書寫這本書，他意識到，在政治動盪的時代，這些狂妄自大的傢伙可以一直把人民迷得神魂顛倒。 ——《柯克斯書評》（Kirkus Reviews） 碑文會傾頹、雕像會倒塌，但這本書讓我們看到，「話術統治」為何歷久不衰。 ——美國大眾文化雜誌Paste Magazine 兼具科普和學術的特色，讀者一定可以從本書獲益甚多，又能享受其中的樂趣。馮客這本書的政治意識是反共且反獨裁的，但更重要的是，他從歷史角度詳述獨裁者如何讓整個社會圍繞著他們的自我頌揚和權力打轉。馮客用全新的方式闡述自己的觀點，並仔細地帶出新穎的細節。書中寫到不太有名的獨裁政權，例如門格斯圖統治的衣索比亞，亦秉持一貫的詳實筆觸，絲毫不馬虎。 ——美國文化雜誌Tablet Magazine

English version available: Standing Tall: The Goh Chok Tong Story Vol. 2 有人说，他在总理之位不会撑太久；也没有多少人料到，他会在李光耀之后取得成功。当吴作栋在1990年接棒出任新加坡第二任总理，好多人——无论国内国外——都毫不掩饰地公然表示怀疑：新加坡这个年轻的新兴国家没了李光耀，是否还能继续生存。 然而，吴作栋却让一众质疑者大感意外；他的主政岁月持续了整整14年，一路引领着新加坡渡过经济风暴、抵御恐怖袭击、扛住大选重挫，甚至发动全民与神秘致命病毒宣战。《登高望远》捕捉了一位政治领导人锤炼转型的过程，展现了他如何从青涩稚嫩的新总理，蜕变为一位顽强务实的战略专家。他既一手推动了这个国家最具争议性的几项政策，包括外来人才政策和部长薪金方程式；却也同时通过保健基金和教育储蓄等温情政策，推进他心目中的愿景：实现一个更宽容、更温和的新加坡。 吴作栋一步跨入后冷战时代，世界秩序紊乱、处处充满未知，给这位新进领导人带来了严峻挑战；但他不止巩固了新加坡在全球格局中的生存空间与声望价值，还使之进一步拓展、晋升。过程中，他跨越障碍叩开了克林顿的白宫大门，与曼德拉友好调侃，甚至还可能在李鹏心脏病猝发前，救了他一命。 吴作栋传续集《登高望远》，由记者出身的作家白胜晖执笔，他也是《高难任务：吴作栋传（第一辑）》的作者。这部授权传记透过作者与编采团队对人物主角的深入采访，人民行动党的档案资料，以及吴作栋私藏笔记，让读者得以从罕见深刻的视角一窥新加坡政治。《登高望远》所叙述的，是吴作栋主政时代的故事，是他在继续推动新加坡蜕变为环球都市的进程中，鲜为人知的内情与真相，情绪与情感。
