  Simplicity Comes Into Being When...

  Simplicity comes into being when there is freedom from the desire to achieve 
  • One who is sincere can never be simple because he who is trying to be sincere always has the desire to pattern or approximate himself to an idea. 
  • Self-knowledge can be discovered more fully, deeply, widely, only when there is passive awareness, which is not the exertion of will. 
  • In the search for self-knowledge we get caught in self-consciousness. Being caught we make the thing in which one is caught the most important thing. 
  • To go beyond self-consciousness there must be freedom from the desire to achieve a result, because the achievement of a result is what the mind wants. 
  • Q: Would you please explain what you mean by dying daily? 
  • Q: How does a truth when repeated become a lie? What really is a lie? 
  • Q: I think I can help, but whatever I say or do to another is interpreted as interference and as domineering. Why does this happen to me? 
  • Q: What is aloneness? Is it a mystical state?

  内容简介：
  《情感话语的多维度研究——以抱怨会话为例》从社会语言学和语用学角度出发，以抱怨会话为例，对其中蕴含的情感话语进行会话分析，以探究情感话语在交际中的特征、表现，以及与框架和立场密不可分的关系。本书所分析的情感话语指含有情感信息的话语，既包括明确指示情感的情感语言，也包括隐含表达情感的情感性语言。情感话语遍布整个语言系统，是人类交际的必要组成部分。任何会话中都可能有潜在的情感话语，交际者通过情感话语来施行各种言语行为。因此，语言和情感的关系已经引起多方学者的关注，主要涵盖认知语言学、语言人类学、心理语言学、社会语言学、计算语言学、语用学等多个领域。本书选取抱怨会话中存在的大量情感话语作为特定分析对象。所用语料采集自电视剧和真人秀，包括33个不同情景和社会关系中的对话片段。鉴于会话分析在考察话语序列性和交际性方面的优势，本书将结合立场的三个方面，即对立场客体的评价（客观性）、说话主体的定位（主观性）和会话者间定位的比较（主体间性），对抱怨言语行为中的情感话语进行会话分析。

  The Victorians thought, wrote and preached much more about heaven than we do today. As the subject of death comes out of the closet after 120 years when it has been largely shunned and avoided, this book presents the views on the afterlife of a number of well-known Victorians, and others not so well known, in the belief that they may help us today as we seek to get over our fear of death and what lies beyond it and to rescue ourselves from its privatization and over-medicalization.

  The Planning Fallacy -...

  The allure of optimism has been a driving force behind humanity’s greatest achievements. It propels innovation, inspires ambition, and fosters resilience in the face of adversity. Yet, this same optimism can lead us astray, particularly when it comes to planning and executing tasks. The belief that everything will unfold as envisioned, without significant setbacks or challenges, is an enticing illusion. This overconfidence, while comforting, often masks the reality of time and resource constraints, resulting in a phenomenon known as the planning fallacy. 
  At its core, the planning fallacy arises from our tendency to underestimate the time, effort, and costs required to complete tasks, regardless of past experiences. Even seasoned professionals and experienced teams are not immune to this bias, often succumbing to unrealistic timelines and budgets. The hidden costs of this fallacy ripple through personal lives, businesses, and large-scale projects, leaving behind missed deadlines, financial overruns, and unmet expectations. 
  On an individual level, the planning fallacy can manifest in simple daily scenarios. People frequently underestimate how long it will take to commute, complete errands, or prepare for events. This miscalculation leads to stress, frustration, and a constant feeling of being behind. In professional settings, it becomes even more pronounced, as teams juggle complex projects with high stakes. Unrealistic deadlines can push employees to their limits, fostering burnout and reducing overall productivity.

  This timely book unravels race and emotion in the workplace—exploring why racial emotion is often left out of equity conversations and why we must confront it. 
   
   
   
  Racial Emotion at Work is an invitation to understand our own emotions and associated behaviors around race—and much more. With this surprising and timely book, Tristin K. Green takes us beyond diversity trainings and other individualized solutions to discrimination and inequality in employment, calling for sweeping changes in how the law and work organizations treat and shape racial emotions. 
   
   
    
  Green provides listeners with the latest research on racial emotions in interracial interactions and ties this research to thinking about discrimination and disadvantage at work. We see how our racial emotions can result in discrimination, and how our institutions—the law and work organizations—value and skew our racial emotions in ways that place the brunt of negative consequences on people of color. It turns out we need to reset our institutional and not just our personal radars on racial emotion to advance racial justice. Racial Emotion at Work shows how we can rise to the task.
