一如以往，我較愛看作者寫民俗事，所从第一章風俗和第四章家園較合我味道。

A very interesting book on football. Using statistical regression, the authors grill out some eye-opening findings, such as the factors affecting league standings, international achievements, economics in holding a big event. Worth the effort to read this book to have a different perspective in watc ... (continue)

這書是作者的專欄文章結集而成，所以內容有所重複，然而，其所指出的疑問值得深思，所謂的正音是否真是正。

"寸" is the main theme of the book. 鄧永鏘 succeeds in doing so. Even though readers may not agree with his opinion, it worths to take a minute or two for self reflection.

It is always entertaiing to read author's book on folklore. In addition to that, this book is a thought provoking one. Even though one may not agree with author's insight, the book does provide enough food (negative selection, mangerialism, etc) for our critical thinking on the existing policies and ... (continue)

恰如其分，不狂妄，不自卑，為此書帶給我思考新的一頁。
作者在其他作品已詳論思方學，此書亦可溫故知新。

The Innovation Secrets of Steve Jobs
-
After reading "Presenting Secrets of Steve Jobs", I longed to read this book. However, I am a bit disappointed by the content - the so-called secrets have been well published after the death of Steve Jobs.
That said, this book is very well organized and narrated. Key concepts include:

I like "the Secret" very much - I rate it 5-star here. In contrast, this "The Secret the power" hardly touch me. Yes, I agree love is a major force throughout our lives. But the narration and elaboration of the book sounds shallow to me. I'd prefer the books from "Thich Nhat Hanh" more.

不知何解，我總不能專心地看這書，只是「水過鴨背」般地讀，或許這書是在論述禪修之「道」，而我只停留在尋求「術」之水平。

一本使我有很多反思的書，其中談及忿怒的種子更是我的寫照，更須要我培養正念。
一）房子着火，你會先救火還是找放火的兇手？
二）談別人向你發怒 -- 如我不收你的禮物，要收回的是送禮人;
三）一位十四歲孩子每次趺倒，其父親會對他大吼，雖然他發誓不要這樣，但他差點就同樣對待其妹。 - — Dec 20, 2011 | Add your feedback

作者拋書包之作。
無謂的又中又英，太多 quotation，為引用而引用，加上 excerpt 的差勁排板，便這書欠流暢。

All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten
A series of short stories/essays. Some of them make me think. Examples include
1) itsy-bitsy spider: have you thought of it as an adverture, followed by disaster, then never give up and resume the adventure again?
2) hide and seek: well .... Is it a game of hide and give-up when yo hide so well?

2) hide and seek: well .... Is it a game of hide and give-up when yo hide so well?
Last but not least, don't be deceived by the title of the book. It is only the title of the first essay and nothing to do with the rest of the book.
Is this helpful?
