「我要創造,我渴望創造。」把自己的經驗,透過寫作,創造現實裏無法實現的生活,就是王安憶這三十多年來都在寫作的原因。
王安憶作為69屆初中生,有着比別人豐富的人生閱歷,經歷過知青生活,插隊落戶,這些成長經歷都為她帶來豐富的寫作題材,開展她寫作的漫漫長路。
本書收錄王安憶教授在香港城市大學舉辦的六課講座內容,分享了多年來自身的寫作生活,同時講述與寫作有關的種種—從閱讀生活領略到的文學樂趣到創作類型小說的細節結構,再從小說探索文字的奧妙。她更闡述了教授寫作實踐課的一些體會,如同手把手般傳授讀者寫作之道,極其可貴難得,對有志投身創作行業的青年人極具啟發性。

老子四種
(魏)王弼 等
check holdings in CityU LibraryFind
check resources on the same subject in CityU LibraryFind
成書於先秦的《老子》一書,是道家學說的核心,也是形塑中華文明的重要典籍。歷代有關《老子》的注釋中,以曹魏《王弼注》及漢代《河上公注》為必讀之作。此外,1973年於長沙出土的馬王堆帛書《老子》甲、乙本,1993年於湖北省出土的郭店竹簡《老子》甲、乙、丙三篇,皆與傳世版本多有差異,亦是研讀《老子》必備的資料。
上述四種文獻合刊為《老子四種》,並重加標點、精心排印,改進歷來版本經注混雜、眉目不清的缺點。使讀者在研讀《老子》之時,能相互參照,成為最精審可靠的讀本。
(摘錄自博客來網路書店)
《道德經》是春秋時期老子(李耳)的哲學作品,又稱《道德真經》、《老子》、《五千言》、《老子五千文》,是中國古代先秦諸子分家前的一部著作,為其時諸子所共仰,是道家哲學思想的重要來源。道德經分上下兩篇,原文上篇《德經》、下篇《道經》,不分章,後改為《道經》37章在前,第38章之後為《德經》,並分為81章。
《道德經》,文本以哲學意義之“道德”為綱宗,論述修身、治國、用兵、養生之道,而多以政治為旨歸,乃所謂“內聖外王”之學,文意深奧,包涵廣博,被譽為萬經之王。

Energy and Civilization: A History
by Vaclav Smil
check holdings in CityU LibraryFind
check resources on the same subject in CityU LibraryFind
A comprehensive account of how energy has shaped society throughout history, from pre-agricultural foraging societies through today's fossil fuel--driven civilization.
Energy is the only universal currency; it is necessary for getting anything done. The conversion of energy on Earth ranges from terra-forming forces of plate tectonics to cumulative erosive effects of raindrops. Life on Earth depends on the photosynthetic conversion of solar energy into plant biomass. Humans have come to rely on many more energy flows -- ranging from fossil fuels to photovoltaic generation of electricity -- for their civilized existence. In this monumental history, Vaclav Smil provides a comprehensive account of how energy has shaped society, from pre-agricultural foraging societies through today's fossil fuel--driven civilization.
Humans are the only species that can systematically harness energies outside their bodies, using the power of their intellect and an enormous variety of artifacts -- from the simplest tools to internal combustion engines and nuclear reactors. The epochal transition to fossil fuels affected everything: agriculture, industry, transportation, weapons, communication, economics, urbanization, quality of life, politics, and the environment. Smil describes humanity's energy eras in panoramic and interdisciplinary fashion, offering readers a magisterial overview. This book is an extensively updated and expanded version of Smil's Energy in World History (1994). Smil has incorporated an enormous amount of new material, reflecting the dramatic developments in energy studies over the last two decades and his own research over that time.

The Charisma Myth: How Anyone Can Master the Art and Science of Personal Magnetism
Olivia Fox Cabane

What if charisma could be taught?
The charisma myth is the idea that charisma is a fundamental, inborn quality—you either have it (Bill Clinton, Steve Jobs, Oprah) or you don’t. But that’s simply not true, as Olivia Fox Cabane reveals. Charismatic behaviors can be learned and perfected by anyone.
Drawing on techniques she originally developed for Harvard and MIT, Cabane breaks charisma down into its components. Becoming more charismatic doesn’t mean transforming your fundamental personality. It’s about adopting a series of specific practices that fit in with the personality you already have.
The Charisma Myth shows you how to become more influential, more persuasive, and more inspiring.
