Book Description

GOVERNOR HOWARD DEAN'S GRASSROOTS BID FOR THE PRESIDENCY IS GENERATING EXCITEMENT IN EVERY CORNER OF AMERICA.

In Winning Back America, Governor Dean writes for the first time about his life and the people and events that have shaped him, beginning with his upbringing in New York and taking us through his medical career, eleven and a half years as governor of Vermont, and finally into his presidential campaign.

Howard Dean writes about:

1.The years at college that changed the way he looks at America

2.His decision to attend medical school and the origins of his commitment to children and to universal health care

3.Meeting his wife, Judith Steinberg, and bringing up a family in Vermont

4.One dramatic day that he began as an internist and ended as governor

5.The successes of his governorship

6.His decision to run for president of the United States

7.His vision for the country

Winning Back America is Howard Dean in his own words. Dean tells his story with characteristic verve and forthrightness and also with emotion as he reflects on the death of his father and on the disappearance of his brother

Charlie in Southeast Asia at the end of the Vietnam War.

Howard Dean's personal recollections bring us a full portrait of the candidate as a father, a husband, a son, and as a political leader.

From Publishers Weekly

"I talk as simply and directly to people as possible," claims Dean, and though his official campaign biography-cum-manifesto is notable for its plainspokenness, it mostly lacks the passionate forcefulness the front-running Democratic candidate has shown on the campaign trail. The toning down appears deliberate; not only does Dean apologize for intemperate remarks, he goes out of his way to describe himself as a nonradical during his late '60s college years and compares his fiscal outlook to that of his "moderate business-oriented Republican" father. (He also has kind words for President Bush and his family, though he turns critical on the subject of the president's aides.) The account of his childhood and college years is bland, the result of downplaying his family's wealth. A feeling of enthusiasm doesn't set in until his decision to enroll in medical school, perhaps because this is also the period when he met his wife. Dean's flat facade also cracks in passages recalling the circumstances of his older brother's capture (and probable execution) by the Pathet Lao in Laos in 1974. Obliquely touching on the emotional effects of this trauma on his family, Dean also discusses how it has increased his reluctance to send American soldiers into combat and put their families through the same process. The final sections of the book veer away from the personal to the political, and much of its rhetoric will be instantly recognizable to anyone who's seen a Dean stump speech, possibly frustrating those who want to learn more deeply about the man and what he stands for.

• 被自然深度滋养过的人，心中总有辽阔天地

  作者：夏绿 发布时间：2023-08-18 15:42:53

  读这本绘本，是一场充满可爱野趣、在法国文学和乡村自然里好奇信步的奇妙之旅，让我认识了不少陌生的动植物，感受到很多富有生命力的表达（虽然法译中有点蹩脚和跳跃）。

  作者卡特琳·默里斯自然风景的画风笔触细腻，人物画风可以说是“奇奇怪怪，可可爱爱”了（插播小宝的吐槽：风景画得还可以，人太丑了~哈哈哈），有一种有趣的反差感。

  作者的原生家庭对自然、文学教育的重视，非常让人歆羡。她的爸爸会在他们搬迁至农场后，刻下他们踏上这片土地的年份，是充满爱的仪式感；她的父母对她说，“我们从来没有想过给你们留下什么东西做遗产，除了玫瑰和树。”他们还有过这样的对话：“什么能安慰你们？”“大自然。一次又一次！”“还有文学？”“普鲁斯特和洛蒂说出了我们感受的一切，但说得更好。他们太可贵了。”对自然和文学的热爱，像空气一样融进了卡特琳的身体里。

  书里还记录了卡特琳去隔壁农庄遇到的趣事，那里会收集山羊、母牛、母鸡、狐狸、貂、猫头鹰的粪便，她形容“在乡下，粪便闻起来很棒。因为它混合了干草、土壤和牲畜的香气……是天然的”（有味道的文字）。有个女孩展示了她爷爷被联合收割机绞断的手指，她说，“在乡间，我们见惯了死亡”，而“新生命的诞生要惊人得多”，她们还一起观察羊分娩。

  当中还有性在自然中的体现，传递了一些冷知识，比如蟋蟀的歌声其实是它们交配的声音；野生兰花的花瓣模仿的是蜜蜂的腹部，是为了邀请蜜蜂来授粉；红兰花的名字来源于“orchis”，希腊语的意思是“睾丸”，书里感叹“大自然充满了性”，用这个视角去看待自然，也很新奇。

  书中提到，卡特琳的妈妈在一棵高大的雪松旁长大，她爸爸则是在上百年的山毛榉旁长大，让我回想起陪伴自己长大的，大概是家附近的几棵南洋杉、白兰树和芒果树了。

  谢谢它带我畅游了这一片辽阔天地。

• 从《隰斯弥见田成子》说《韩非子》

  作者：姜厌厌 发布时间：2015-04-21 15:41:58

  隰斯弥见田成子，田成子与登台四望。三面皆畅，南望，隰子家之树蔽之。田成子亦不言。隰子归，使人伐之；斧离数创，隰子止之。其相室曰：“何变之数也？”隰子曰：“古者有谚曰：‘知渊中之鱼者不祥。’夫田子将有大事，而我示之知微，我必危矣。不伐树，未有罪也；知人之所不言，其罪大矣。”乃不伐也。

  隰斯弥见田成子，田成子和他一起登高台四向望去。三面视野都很畅达，向南望去，隰子家的树遮蔽了视线。田成子也不说什么。隰子回到家中，让人去砍树；砍了几斧树上留下创口斧子离开树打算再砍的时候，隰子制止了砍树的行为。他的相室说：“为什么变化得这么反复呢？”隰子说：“古时候有谚语说：‘知道渊中鱼的人是不详的。’田成子将做大事，而我向他显示知道征兆，我必然危险。不砍树，未必会有罪；知道别人没有说出来的话，罪过就大了。”于是不伐树了。

  以上是个人试着翻译的，也没有查具体的字词释义及语法。再用白话文说一遍。隰子与田成子登台，看见隰子家的树挡住了望远的视野。这个时候，田成子什么也不说。隰子回家后让家人砍树，没砍断就制止了家人。家人问：“命令为什么反复？”隰子回答：“察见渊中鱼者不详。”田子将举大事，我示意他我知道他将举事的征兆，我就危险了。不伐树，未必有罪；知道他人没有说出来的话，罪大。”于是不伐树了。

  这个故事和另一个故事很像。另一个故事是这样的。秦始皇有一天在某处看风景，恰好看到丞相李斯出游，随行的车驾特别多，秦始皇不高兴，说了句：“丞相随行的车驾太多了。”过了几天，秦始皇又看到丞相的车驾，发现少了很多。于是知道有人把他当时说的话泄露给丞相。，把当时在场的人全抓来拷问，没有人承认，于是把他们全杀了。这个故事的主角之一李斯与说上一个故事的人是同窗。两相对比可以看出，韩非子对人性中幽暗叵测的一面揭漏得更深刻。

  而且这个故事还有背景。主人公之一是田成子，田氏代齐是东周的标志性事件。后文又说，田成子将有大事，可以猜测到这个时候田氏尚未代齐，但是已有此心。如此，如果隰子回家后砍了树，那么就和李斯削减车驾数量一样，李斯的行为等于是告诉秦始皇当日的随从泄露了他的话，隰子如果砍了树也等于是告诉田成子他知道田成子尚未说出口的话。田成子会觉得隰子聪颖。再结合当时背景，田成子会想，既然隰子能明白我尚未说出口的话，那么他想必也能看出我有篡位弑君之心，这种人，怎么能留呢？

  相反，如果隰子最终留着那棵树，他的罪过不过只是遮蔽了看台的视野罢了。这就是在人心险恶的前提下，人世守拙的智慧。隰子能想到这一点，岂是常人？写这个故事的韩非子，又岂是常人？

  再假设这个故事中，田成子如果开口把他心里想的说出了口，故事会是什么走向？但是，秦始皇会在对着丞相李斯的时候说，“我觉得你的随从车驾太多了”吗？田成子也不会说。

  说林中这样的故事还有很多，绝对让人看了以后更新对人性的认识。

  说林中的故事佐证了人性本恶的假设。人君驾驭臣下使用的二柄——赏、罚，而且春秋战国时有很多君主臣下有关赏罚二柄的例子。法、术、势也是君主倚仗治国的法宝。整本《韩非子》思维严谨，逻辑缜密。在某个前提下，抛出论点，然后从说理、举例上论证观点，环环相扣。从细节上看韩非子对文字的处理也十分老练精当，比如襄子与智伯对决的那一段。不愧是先秦诸子中耀眼的明珠。

  还注意到的一点是韩非子特别提到严法与请谒的冲突，花了不少的篇幅阐述了二者的矛盾，这在哪朝哪代都有借鉴价值。

  其中专门有两章说解老。韩子认同老子关于治国的观点，并进行了一番韩式阐述，认为君主不应显示出喜好来，只有这样才能驭下而不是为下所驭。这一点在后世成为流觞。

  总体说来，韩非子的不足在于，假设不全面，论点有偏颇，但只要能成一家之言，这些瑕疵不算什么。和孟子完全相反。对二者的取舍完全只看个人的倾向。
