He fights his way back from poverty

探索明代中叶以后至清初康熙年间党争的一部权威性研究专著。从明清之间大量的正史、野史笔记中披沙拣金,取精用宏,勾画出明万历至清康熙间士大夫党争与历史发展的相互关系的脉落。通过东林党争、复社、几社等集会结社活动,反映明清之际历史的一个侧面。受到鲁迅先生高度评价:钩索文籍,用力甚勤。

现代新加坡无疑是一个奇迹。刚独立时的新加坡国土狭小,贫穷不堪,几乎没有任何资源,还被虎视眈眈的领国所包围。如今无论是高收入还是低犯罪率,抑或一流的教育和令人艳羡的国家稳定,这个不可思议的国家在几乎所有全球国家指数排名中都名列前茅。 作者尼古拉·沃尔顿(Nicolas Walton)在一天之内徒步穿越了新加坡全境,试图捕捉新加坡奇迹的动力,并理解它如今面临的挑战。沃尔顿结合徒步所经过的新加坡的不同功能区,结合历史、访谈和实地感受,把新加坡如何一步步发展到今天的故事娓娓道来:新加坡如何从重商主义者莱佛士到英国殖民地统治,穿越战争岁月直到独立,并获取了今天的奇迹。 在肯定新加坡所取得的成绩的前提下,作者通过自己的观察也提出了新加坡未来发展所面临的问题:公众的自满、不断变化的地理现实以及如何在弹丸小国中平衡移民问题的困境。沃尔顿警告说,新加坡的后半个世纪不会比独立以来的那五十年更轻松,而这是我们在高度全球化的世界背景下探讨“新加坡模式”时必须面对的现实。

Where history fails to address the consequences of man made and natural atrocities, David Der Wei Wang argues, fiction arises to bear witness
