HM856 .D48 2016
为什么现代社会中的财富和权力的分配,是以今天这种面貌呈现,而非其他形式?为何越过大洋进行杀戮、征服和灭绝的,不是美洲、非洲的土著,而是欧洲人和亚洲人?各族群间的生活差异为何如此之大? 对于现代人类、国家间的种种不平等现象,史学家往往存而不论,而在这部作品中,作者为许多大家熟悉以及想当然的答案赋予了截然不同的含义。在这部开创性的著作中,演化生物学家、人类学家贾雷德戴蒙德揭示了事实上有助于形成历史最广泛模式的环境因素,从而以震撼人心的力量摧毁了以种族主义为基础的人类史理论。本书是理解人类社会发展史方面的一个重大进展,它记录了现代世界及其诸多不平等所以形成的原因,也是一部真正关于全世界各民族的历史,是对人类生活的完整一贯的叙述,具有很强的可读性。

万历十五年 by 黄仁宇

PL2865.R4 W36 2014
万历十五年,亦即公元1587年,在西欧历史上为西班牙舰队全部出动征英的前一年;而在中国,这平平淡淡的一年中,发生了若干为历史学家所易于忽视的事件。这些事件,表面看来虽似末端小节,但实质上却是以前发生大事的症结,也是将在以后掀起波澜的机缘。在历史学家黄仁宇的眼中,其间的关系因果,恰为历史的重点,而我们的大历史之旅,也自此开始…

HM1033 .G53 2002
The tipping point is that magic moment when an idea, trend, or social behavior crosses a threshold, tips, and spreads like wildfire. Just as a single sick person can start an epidemic of the flu, so too can a small but precisely targeted push cause a fashion trend, the popularity of a new product, or a drop in the crime rate. This widely acclaimed bestseller, in which Malcolm Gladwell explores and brilliantly illuminates the tipping point phenomenon, is already changing the way people throughout the world think about selling products and disseminating ideas.
My Life on the Road by Gloria Steinem

HQ1413.S675 A3 2015
My Life on the Road is the moving, funny, and profound story of Gloria’s growth and also the growth of a revolutionary movement for equality—and the story of how surprising encounters on the road shaped both. From her first experience of social activism among women in India to her work as a journalist in the 1960s; from the whirlwind of political campaigns to the founding of Ms. magazine; from the historic 1977 National Women’s Conference to her travels through Indian Country—a lifetime spent on the road allowed Gloria to listen and connect deeply with people, to understand that context is everything, and to become part of a movement that would change the world.
