Summary
Since
Terry McMillan’s breakout novel, Waiting to Exhale, surged onto
the bestseller lists, her irreverent, hilarious, and pitch-perfect
tales of women’s lives and contemporary issues have captivated
critics and readers alike. With The Interruption of Everything,
McMillan takes on the fault lines of midlife and family life and
reminds us once again of the redeeming power of friendship.
Marilyn Grimes, wife and mother of three, has made a career of deferring
her dreams to build a suburban California home and lifestyle with
her workaholic husband, Leon. She also troubleshoots for her grown
kids, cares for her live-in mother-in-law (and elderly poodle, Snuffy),
keeps tabs on her girlfriends Paulette and Bunny and her own aging
mother and foster sister— and holds down a part- time job. But
at forty-four, Marilyn’s got too much on her plate and nothing
to feed her passion. She feels like she’s about ready to jump.
She’s just not sure where.
Highly entertaining, deeply human, a page-turner full of heart and
soul, this time McMillan turns her eye to the question of how one
woman can start putting her own needs higher on the to-do list while
not shortchanging those she loves. The Interruption of Everything
is a triumphant testament to the fact that the detour is the path,
and living life "by the numbers" never quite adds up.

Summary
Lance
Armstrong's War is the extraordinary story of greatness pushed to
its limits, a vivid, behind-the-scenes portrait of Armstrong --
perhaps the most accomplished athlete of our time -- as he faces
his biggest test: a historic sixth straight victory in the Tour
de France, the toughest sporting event on the planet.
Made
newly vulnerable by age, fate, fame, doping allegations, and an
unprecedented army of challengers, Armstrong fights on all fronts
to do what he does like no one else: exert his will to win. That
will, which has famously lifted him beyond his humble Texas roots,
beyond cancer, and to unparalleled heights of success, is revealed
by acclaimed journalist Daniel Coyle in new and startling dimensions.
We
see how Armstrong rebuilds after his near-loss in the 2003 Tour,
discovering new strategies to cope with his aging body. How he fills
the holes in his life after his painful divorce from his wife, Kristin,
and the ensuing time apart from his three young children. How he
manages the exceedingly difficult trick of being Lance Armstrong
-- a combination of world-class athlete, celebrity, regular guy,
and, for many Americans, secular saint.
But
a saint's life it's not. To function at his peak, Armstrong requires
what his friends artfully call "stimulus" -- and if it's
lacking, he won't hesitate to create some. We see Armstrong operating
at the turbulent center of a fast-orbiting cast of swaggering Belgian
tough guys, controversial Italian sports doctors, piranha-toothed
lawyers, and jittery corporations, not to mention a certain female
rock star. We see the subtle mind games he plays with himself and
with rivals Tyler Hamilton, Jan Ullrich, and Iban Mayo. We see him
through the eyes of his teammates, competitors, and friends, and
explore his powerful relationship with his mother, Linda. We see
what happens three weeks before the Tour, when he's faced with a
double challenge: a blowout defeat in an important race and the
release of a controversial book seeking to link him to performance-enhancing
drugs. And finally we see it all culminate in the Tour de France,
where Armstrong will rise to new and unexpected levels of domination.
Along
the way, Lance Armstrong's War journeys through the little-known
landscape of professional bike racing, a Darwinian world of unsurpassed
beauty and brutality, a world teeming with underdogs, gurus, groupies,
and wholly original characters, where athletes do not so much choose
the sport as the sport chooses them.
Over
the season, Armstrong and these characters collide in raw and sometimes
violent theater. From the first training camps to the triumphal
ride into Paris, Lance Armstrong's War provides a hugely insightful
look into the often-inspiring, always surprising core of this remarkable
man and the world that shapes him.

wife, Jen, and their four children.
Fueled
by superb reporting and built-in suspense...Lance Armstrong’s War
is the equal of its distinguished and very complicated subject.

The
Happiness Hypothesis:Finding
Modern Truth in Ancient Wisdom
快樂假設說:在先人的智慧中尋找真理的現代觀
-
by Jonathan
Haidt
你的祖母比你想像的還聰明。 事實上,世界各種文化圈裡的先哲都將智慧箴言流傳後世,例如「己所不欲勿施於人」、「生命本身端賴自我創造」等,這些先人智慧超越宗教,歷史和社會的藩籬,保有其亙古不變的真理。本書作者以科學研究的鉅細靡遺的手法,秉承兩位著名作家的風格---
葛拉威爾(Malcolm Gladwell),《引爆趨勢,The Tipping Point》和《決斷兩秒間,Blink》的作者以及
索羅維基(James Surowiecki),《群眾的智慧, The Wisdom of Crowds》的作者,探討所謂幸福快樂的現代意義,堪稱快樂的神經學專書...
Summary
本書作者以洗鍊流暢的文字, 結合葛拉威爾(Malcolm
Gladwell)、索羅維基(James Surowiecki)敘事手法和艾倫•狄波頓(Alain de Botton)---
《哲學的慰藉,The Consolations of Philosophy》的風格,創造出這本快樂的神經學研究。探討什麼使我們感到快樂,我們決定做某件事的動機為何?我們如何認知感受周遭的一切?我們需要什麼才能感到快樂?作者以哲學的思維和科學的研究方法,解釋為什麼美德不一定會得到適當的回饋?為什麼外向的人比內向的人要快樂?為什麼有意識的思考不見得重要?為什麼無神論者一樣會有靈性提升的經驗?在書中最後一章,作者綜合人類歷史的大思想家的各方說法,檢視快樂的終極的問題:人要如何活出有意義的生命...
