这算是我“进军”美国picture book领域的第一步尝试吧。美国picture book，尤其是
children's picture book，华裔/华人真是屈指可数，可供参考的经验，也非常之少；
加上自己新入此领域，自己摸着石头过河中。
故事情节、语言、绘画，三者缺一不可。这个故事从去年初构思，从一个基本没有情节

崔维成 中国船舶科学研究中心，无锡。
《中国社会科学学报》2008年10月23日
摘要：爱因斯坦和玻尔关于对量子力学现象的解释的争论是20世纪物理学界的一个重大
事件，尽管目前的量子力学基本上是采用了玻尔的所谓“哥本哈根解释”，但仍有不少
人对于他放弃微观世界的因果律而感到不满意。本文基于佛教哲学来重新审视爱因斯坦
与玻尔的争论，简要介绍了他们争论的过程和本质以及佛教哲学的基本概念，在此基础
上，用佛教哲学来重新解释量子力学的现象，并比较了它与爱因斯坦和玻尔的观点的差
别。同时，对当代多名顶级物理学家有关解释量子现象的哲学观点进行了剖析。通过这
一审视，本文作者认为，基于佛教哲学，我们完全可以在坚守因果律的前提下解释微观
世界的各种现象，同时，也发现了爱因斯坦、玻尔以及其他几名物理学家哲学观点中需
要进一步研究的问题。对于这些问题的研究有可能对当今的前沿科学研究有重要的推动
作用。
关键词：佛教哲学、爱因斯坦、玻尔、量子力学、因果律、概率性、可知论、不可知论

在20世纪物理学的发展中，爱因斯坦和玻尔是两位最伟大的科学巨匠，他们都创... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 7933 | 6 首先声明，本人也是看西方那些所谓“世界名著”长大的。当时爸妈单位图书馆别的没
有，《格兰特》三部曲，《从地球到月球》，《环绕月球》，甚至《飘逝的半岛》、《
培根的五亿法郎》等等都是看了很多很多遍的。现在网上有一个高手，做了几本中国青
年出版社当年的凡尔纳系列的文本精确还原pdf，我当时怀着激动的心情下载下来，看
了几页就发现，不过是些teenage的读物而已。当时赞不绝口，是因为没有看过更好的。
其次，《凡人》绝对比不上《红楼梦》。我还是推荐抚琴居出品的《红楼梦脂评汇校本
》3.13F，文本pdf，文字极好。很多地方是人民文学那个红研所整理的本子没有的，读
之满口喷香。《红楼梦》之下，《金瓶梅》也很好。要看香港梅节整理的本子，是词话
本系统，网上也有下载。
但是，一般人吹捧的西方世界名著，到底有多好，就见仁见智了。外国文学出版社当年
的网格本系列一直是收书市场、孔夫子网站的热卖货。但是选目很受政治立场影响，不
少译本水平也不行。
不谈译本的话，很多所谓“名著”本身水平一般般。比如《德伯家的苔丝》一书，拖沓

发帖数: 11 | 8 有本书 How To Want What You Have (Paperback) by Timothy Ray Miller
可能会对你有用。
有本叫Reinventing your life 。。。的书上作者（是个psychologist）说他们对人的
行为有一些假设，虽然他们不能证明这些假设，他们发现相信这些假设病人更容易恢复
。假设有七八条，我记得的有：人都渴望快乐；人都渴望一些生活的质量，例如being
competent, desired, fulfilled, etc.; changes of behavior can be done in very
basic steps.
You wrote "I am not living it (my life) for myself". 那你是不是有ideas on
how to live your life for yourself but just don't seem to be able to do it?
这和你根本没有生活的目标是不一样的。
建议你看看心理医生，如果保险cover 的化。有一个人可以谈论你的痛苦也是好 |

The Bondage Breaker® (Paperback)
by Neil T. Anderson (Author)
（译文：刘强 8-13-2007）
各位先睹为快。
第三步：仇恨与原谅
我们需要原谅其他人从而使撒旦无机可乘（哥后 2：10，11）。我们被命令要来除去
我们生活中所有的仇恨并且就如我们已经被原谅一样原谅其他人。（以弗所 4：31，32
）通过大声祷告下面内容祈求 神向你启示你需要原谅的人。
亲爱的天父， 我谢谢你对我丰盛的慈爱，忍耐，和耐心， 知道你的慈爱已经带领我
来悔改。我承认我向那些伤害过我的人没有表现出同样的慈爱。相反，我继续向他们发
出我的愤怒和仇恨。请向我启示所有我需要原谅的人从而使我可以这样作。 奉耶稣的
名， 阿门。
（见 罗 2：4）
在另外一张纸上写出你想到的人名。 这时不要问你是否需要原谅他们 |
