《美的歷程》是部大書（應該說是幾部大書），是一部中國美學和美術史，一部中國文學史，一部中國哲學史，一部中國文化史。　——馮友蘭

《美的歷程》一書真是寫得英姿勃發，才氣逼人。單是標題，便氣度不凡，龍飛鳳舞、青銅饕餮、魏晉風度、盛唐之音，更不用說每過幾頁就有一段華彩樂章了。實際上，《美的歷程》是可以當作藝術品來看待的，它充分地表現著李澤厚的藝術魅力。　——易中天

Every once in a while a book comes along that strikes right at the core of a problem and brings a solution. We all have patterns of thinking and behavior that sabotage our effectiveness, success, and happiness. Noah Blumenthal believes that we can replace these negative patterns with a more positive approach — what he calls the way of the everyday hero. He shows that everyone can be a hero — when they choose the “right” path, even when it is difficult to do so. Around this concept, Blumenthal spins a tale that brings to life the lessons, techniques, and tools anyone can use to become an everyday hero ...

In this great book, Noah Blumenthal shares the three secrets that will take you to success and beyond. Read it, devour it, and practice it, and you’ll learn how to increase your effectiveness, improve your relationships, and find success. The benefits to you and to the people around you will be tremendous!

天使在地下鐵入口
跟我說再見的那一年，
我漸漸看不見了。

15歲生日的秋天早晨，
下著毛毛雨，
我餵好我的貓，
六點零五分，
走進地下鐵。

故事靈感的開始，是10多年前，幾米第一次在東京搭乘地下鐵。後來在紐約又有幾次進出地下鐵，地鐵周邊的風光，以及各站不同的出口風景深深震撼作家的心靈，故事的型塑於焉開展。本書是幾米繼城市三部曲《向左轉，向右轉》、《月亮忘記了》之第三部壓軸曲。更是幾米讀者的必讀書。

幾米1998年開始繪本創作，開啟成人繪本風潮，作品風靡海內外，已有美、法、德、西班牙、希臘、韓、 日、泰等國譯本。多部作品改編為音樂劇、電視劇或電影。

Stephen Wearing & John Neil

Ecotourism: Impacts, Potentials and Possibilities analyses the impacts of mainstream tourism in first, second and third world countries, and argues the benefits of adopting the philosophical approaches of ecotourism to create a more sustainable tourism industry in every country around the world.

Conservation and ecotourism issues are now at the forefront of public opinion. The decline of natural rainforests, loss of endangered species, global warming and land degradation have galvanised public support for conservation. Building on the success of the first edition, this text has been fully revised and updated to include:
* Updated and new international case studies
* A new chapter devoted to the theory and technique of Rapid Rural Appraisal (the practice whereby communities are empowered to improve their own environment)
* Questions and further readings at the end of each chapter to facilitate student's learning
* Critical analysis of ecotourism. Explores the movement of ideas around post-modern approaches to the field

Using relevant case studies, Ecotourism examines the potential positive social and environmental benefits of Ecotourism and is ideal for both students of tourism and practitioners within the tourism industry. Ecotourism will also be of interest to environmental groups, land managers, academics and planners.

《瀕臨失衡的地球--生態與人類精神》是美國前副總統阿爾戈爾的重要作品，初版於1992年，旨在討論生態危機與人類文明的整體關係。作者戈爾認為生態危機從根本上說是現代文明和生態系統之間的衝突，副標題“生態與人類精神”便充分體現這一貫穿整部作品的思想核心。全書分為三個部分，分別是“失衡的危險”，“尋求平衡”和“獲取平衡”。循著人類文明與地球生態關係這樣一個脈絡，戈爾將自己的親身感受和最新的科學研究結合起來，致力於探索生態系統與人類文明所共同面臨之困境的產生根源和應對之策，並以此引發讀者對環境與生態問題的真實關切和深刻思考。
