Across the worlds of Shadow, Corwin, prince of blood royal, heir to the throne of Amber, gathers his forces for an assault that will yield up to him the crown that is rightfully his.

罗杰•泽拉兹尼，美国国宝级科幻奇幻作家，在这两大领域均达到了极其罕见的巅峰状态。 在三十多年的创作生涯中，他一共摘取了六次雨果奖、三次星云奖和两次轨迹奖，留下了五十五部长篇和一百五十余个中短篇。1963年，他的作品被编入“著名科幻小说殿堂”，并于2010年入驻“科幻小说 名 人堂”。 他率先倡导科幻小说写作要从心理学、社会学和语言学三方面考虑，打破了太空冒险科幻一统天下的局面，被誉为“新浪潮”的领军人物。在泽拉兹尼的作品中，他创造性地将科幻、奇幻融为一体，将神话、宗教与科幻奇幻有机结合，每一个设定都如教科书般精确，营造出独特的世界观。他的科幻作品中有奇幻的瑰丽恣肆，奇幻作品有科幻的严谨设定。因此，他被视为“那个时代最伟大的科幻奇幻作家”。 在1970年代，泽拉兹尼开始倾力打造他的奇幻名篇《安珀志》，历时20年，终于得以完成这部奇幻历史上的里程碑式作品...(展开全部)

For late imperial China, there were two forms of encounter with the West; the guns of invading Europeans, and the ledgers by which trade between China and the West was measured and regulated. Even today, China's reactions to the West oscillate between business-driv...(展开全部)

稀有金属用量虽小，却有点石成金的改造力，它们的战略意义更是不容低估。你知道吗？电动牙刷产生每分钟振动超过6.2万次，能完成如此高频的驱动离不开三种稀有金属——钕、镝和硼。一支电动牙刷的诞生可能要经过中国、刚果、智利、俄罗斯、韩国、印度尼西亚、土耳其等国家，用到35种金属。这些金属很少见，不一定是因为稀有或难萃取，而是因为用量微小。戴维·亚伯拉罕（David Abraham）新著《动力的元素》（The Elements of Power）追踪稀有金属的踪迹，用生动的细节给讲述了它们不为人知的故事。 这些金属非常轻、坚固、耐热，又难以获得，因此上世纪50年代一名美国将军打趣说它们应该被叫做“难得素”（unobtainium）。稀有金属就像披萨里的酵母一样至关重要，它们的用量虽然微小，却有“点石成金”的改造力。iPhone的触幕上含有铟。锂已经成为可充电汽...(展开全部)

The Indonesians were at the fag end of that career. How did I get there? I had followed the money. I had ridden the tide and currents of financial markets. I had not known very much then. Even now I only knew the many unknowns. H...(展开全部)
