我摘錄咗post 4 某啲書評
:^(


書評文摘:霧月特刊

Bookworm’s Digest - Brumaire CCXXIX Issue

自然科學

-人類大歷史
會員「頭號麵粉」:
呢啲時間框假極長嘅歷史可以睇到一啲傳統時間框架所忽視嘅重要面向,例如Gun, Germs and Steel咁,但係亦都有一啲問題為一般歷史學家所垢病:

首先長時間嘅因果關係、強調地理形勢同環境力量令到big history發展出一套決定論觀點,(eg西班牙人同印加人接觸前勝負已定),導致忽視個人嘅影響力同歷史嘅偶然性

其次big history用自然科學嘅方式做歷史被批評係令歷史屈服於法則,用新康德主義嚟講就係nomothetic(natural sciences) VS idiographic(humanities)。由此,正當歷史學家拋棄歷史敘事嘅目的論時,big history反而走舊路,擁抱進步觀,認定歷史發展係早有定向(directionality),甚至可以預測

會員「森無無∅ 」:
[size=3]David Christian做big history既方法係用複雜科學做底,主要係睇宇宙整體的演變和複雜性的增加,分析翻有咩重要條件導致歷史發生大轉折,個人作用同決策,單獨節點既溝通相對地不重要(畢竟係方法上既限制)。

而且不代表隱含強決定論同目的論,佢既歷史觀係以演化論做底,換言之係以由下而上建立既視角(唯物無神論)既史觀,不存在含有目的論問題,而且複雜科學強調自然中的系統多數係非線性的、多重因果,但難以預測、有偶然性不代表不能理解(決定論本身的話題不作討論)。


哲學
- Ethics of Memory

會員「識字既文盲」:
其實都係因為想知moral/ethical點樣分而去睇呢本書
另外有一個point都幾得意 些牙下 佢個例係 如果兩個陌生人跌落水 你是旦救一個係picking 但如果其中一個係你老婆 咁係choosing 因為choosing背後有reason back up 你一定救老婆先
雖然我又係未必能認同佢的區分 但我都欣賞佢做呢啲區分的方法 起碼: 跟據 Margalit的定義 X and Y 之別為乜乜乜


心理/非形式邏輯/自助

- Why Do I Do That? Psychological Defense Mechanisms and the Hidden Ways They Shape Our Lives

會員「syncronization」:
:^(


勵志
- 被討厭的勇氣

會員「謊言三部曲」:
:^(


歷史/文化
- eat the buddha

會員「媽咪雞誕仔」:
本書講西藏嘅一個鎮點樣畀中共入侵同藏族文化點樣受影響
書入面有好多嘢都會睇到好嬲
睇完呢本書咁啱就睇到蒙古族捍衛自己嘅語言文化
:^(




政治
- 失治之城

會員「樓上係戇鳩仔」:
最近睇咗顧汝德既失治之城
講香港回歸以嚟管治失當,由一開始老董既管治理念影響至今,導致唔同既人為災害。
有講住屋安全、住宅供不應求、社會福利不足、醫療崩潰。
另外,因為特首離地,死都要香港納入中國規劃而令到香港而家咁。
幾好睇。
原本想買佢本官商同謀,但睇嚟全港都無貨。


- 警國論

會員「Danny_Chan」:
覺唔覺得係將一篇thesis用01哲學style寫出嚟
睇咗一半,仲未入到正題
之前一半多數圍繞住維根斯坦個語言遊戲,然後又講吓legitimacy係咩
:^(

只可以話作者中文真係差啲,至少係喺傳意方面
:^(


經濟/金融
- Valuation: Measuring and Managing the Value of Companies

會員「抽到你心寒」:
呢本係McKinsey 出的, 剛剛出到第7版
教公司估值方法, 睇左而又用左佢的方法, 你會知道與其不斷比較同類公司的PE同PS(冇耐之前我都係咁), 不如老老實實計佢估值來做投資決定,
唔咁樣做, 你永遠唔知一隻股票的intrinsic value, 一路都係會做唔好的決定.
就算覺得估值方法太深, 睇本書的Part 1, 你會清楚股票的價值由邊度黎.


小說/自傳/回憶錄/散文
- Call Me By Your Name、Find me

會員「學不可以已」:
:^(


- 流浪者之歌

會員「本田仁美(芝士)」:
啱啱睇完 翻咗工半年 翻到好迷茫 甚至有抑鬱傾向 本身諗咗好耐好冇裸辭 但係又驚呢樣嗰樣 睇完流浪者之歌即刻下定咗決心 quit 咗 既然世界每日都改變緊咁點解自己唔試吓改變 做自己鐘意做嘅嘢
:^(
好老套但係人一生真係好短 得一次 點解唔搏吓
跟住接住會睇德米安 徬徨少年時
過幾年應該會再重讀一次呢本 覺得世界上所有人都係悉達多 迷失迷茫同苦難都係每個人必然會經歷嘅嘢 最緊要搵到自我 同埋自己自身嘅價值 我依家仲喺尋覓階段 希望幾年後再讀呢本書嘅時候又會有新嘅感覺
:^(


以及 會員「4062」爲 衛斯理系列 寫嘅書評
書評太多不能盡錄
:^(


當然仲有「老是常出現」嘅書/作者啦
:^(

例如 1984、動物農莊、atomic habit、卡繆etc

森無無∅ 2020-11-18 20:12:19 對身體有害呢樣以前係少講,教會統治時期有話過唔係射入女大個閪的話都一概視為罪惡,你講個本19世紀小冊子,聽講再早都有同樣類型既著作,不過影響力冇咁大咁解

冇睇開性史研究答你唔到
微風中聽著塵喘息 2020-11-18 20:17:30 最初係因爲覺得打飛機等於殺人/打飛機唔係vaginal sex 無助生殖所以違悖自然 之類嘅理由

話說記錯咗,本小冊子係18世紀出嘅
:^(


These three factions – medics, Puritans and the bourgeoisie – brought about radical new ideas about masturbation. Up until the discovery of the microscope by Anton van Leeuwenhoek (1632– 1723), the aversion to masturbation and wasting seed was partly due to ignorance of the process of procreation. It was believed that tiny, fully formed humans were carried in the sperm. These cells in the form of humans were called homunculi. Any waste of the precious fluid was therefore tantamount to homicide. With greater medical understanding of procreation, new ideas sprang forth as to why masturbation was dangerous, with medics now acting as the moral authorities.

A watershed came with the publication of a new book on masturbation, Onania; or, The Heinous Sin of Self-pollution, and All Its Frightful Consequences in Both Sexes (c. 1710). The author explained the cause of onanism, its consequences and its cure, and claimed that onanism could cause debilitating diseases, blindness and insanity. Written under anonymous authorship by ‘a clergyman’, it revolutionized people’s perceptions about pleasuring themselves. Although it has been suggested that the author was one Dr Bekker, no one has ever identified such a person, although he was evidently well-read.20 Nor was he either ‘a clergyman’ or a medic; instead he was more than likely to have been a quack, given the amount of advertisements for cures placed prominently in the book. John Marten has also been suggested as the author and this may well be the case, as Marten was not only a quack but had also written other books similar in style and content.21 Two medications in particular were proffered as cures, ‘a strengthening tincture’ sold at ten shillings a bottle and a ‘Prolific powder’ for twelve shillings a bag, an extraor- dinary amount of money given that most labourers’ weekly wages were only a few shillings. These medicines promised to cure symptoms of gonorrhoea – gleets, oozings, sores, emissions – and all other manner of problems associated with the venereal disease, including ‘nocturnal effusions’.22
