Updated for the first time, the classic book on why cooperation is not only natural but also the best survival strategy The Evolution of Cooperation addresses a simple yet age-old question: If living things evolve through competition, how can cooperation ever emerge? Despite the abundant evidence of cooperation all around us, there existed no purely naturalistic answer to this question until 1979, when Robert Axelrod famously ran a computer tournament featuring a standard game-theory exercise called The Prisoner's Dilemma. To everyone's surprise, the program that won the tournament, named Tit for Tat, was not only the simplest but the most "cooperative" entrant. This unexpected victory proved that cooperation--one might even say altruism--is mathematically possible and therefore needs no hidden hand or divine agent to create and sustain it. A great roadblock to the understanding of all sorts of behavior was at last removed. The updated edition includes an extensive new chapter on cooperation in cancer cells and among terrorist organizations. "This book, if read, grasped and applied, could have a profound effect." ( Wall Street Journal ) "A fascinating, provocative, and important book." (Douglas R. Hofstadter, author of Godel, Escher, Bach )

心理专家一向被认为是最善于观察人性的，谁能想到，他们也会容易上当受骗？当来访者满怀谎言走向诊疗椅，结局将大大出乎每个人的意料。诊疗过程中的对话亦真亦假，在移情与反移情、欺骗与背叛之间，暴露的却是真实的人性。
心理咨询师也是人，也会有普通人的情感与人格弱点，当他们陷入困境中时，该如何医治自己，又该如何负责任地引领来访者？
欧文·亚隆在书中以精心设计、巧妙连贯的编剧手法，探讨心理治疗过程中的移情与反移情、幼年经验、心理治疗的原则、如何促成来访者最重要的改变、如何督导心理治疗师的训练等，堪称最实用的心理咨询临床实战书，情节构思精巧严密，机关连环，跌宕起伏，极富戏剧性。
《诊疗椅上的谎言》具有亚隆所有小说的共同点：强悍的专业背景，充满妙喻和幽默的文笔，以及意想不到的结局，而论辛辣讽刺，《诊疗椅上的谎言》在亚隆所有的小说中堪称为最。

A sweeping cultural survey reminiscent of Barzun's From Dawn to Decadence . "At irregular times and in scattered settings, human beings have achieved great things. Human Accomplishment is about those great things, falling in the domains known as the arts and sciences, and the people who did them.' So begins Charles Murray's unique account of human excellence, from the age of Homer to our own time. Employing techniques that historians have developed over the last century but that have rarely been applied to books written for the general public, Murray compiles inventories of the people who have been essential to the stories of literature, music, art, philosophy, and the sciences—a total of 4,002 men and women from around the world, ranked according to their eminence. The heart of Human Accomplishment is a series of enthralling descriptive chapters: on the giants in the arts and what sets them apart from the merely great; on the differences between great achievement in the arts and in the sciences; on the meta-inventions, 14 crucial leaps in human capacity to create great art and science; and on the patterns and trajectories of accomplishment across time and geography. Straightforwardly and undogmatically, Charles Murray takes on some controversial questions. Why has accomplishment been so concentrated in Europe? Among men? Since 1400? He presents evidence that the rate of great accomplishment has been declining in the last century, asks what it means, and offers a rich framework for thinking about the conditions under which the human spirit has expressed itself most gloriously. Eye-opening and humbling, Human Accomplishment is a fascinating work that describes what humans at their best can achieve, provides tools for exploring its wellsprings, and celebrates the continuing common quest of humans everywhere to discover truths, create beauty, and apprehend the good.

Life is getting better—and at an accelerating rate. Food availability, income, and life span are up; disease, child mortality, and violence are down — all across the globe. Though the world is far from perfect, necessities and luxuries alike are getting cheaper; population growth is slowing; Africa is following Asia out of poverty; the Internet, the mobile phone, and container shipping are enriching people’s lives as never before. The pessimists who dominate public discourse insist that we will soon reach a turning point and things will start to get worse. But they have been saying this for two hundred years. Yet Matt Ridley does more than describe how things are getting better. He explains why. Prosperity comes from everybody working for everybody else. The habit of exchange and specialization—which started more than 100,000 years ago—has created a collective brain that sets human living standards on a rising trend. The mutual dependence, trust, and sharing that result are causes for hope, not despair. This bold book covers the entire sweep of human history, from the Stone Age to the Internet, from the stagnation of the Ming empire to the invention of the steam engine, from the population explosion to the likely consequences of climate change. It ends with a confident assertion that thanks to the ceaseless capacity of the human race for innovative change, and despite inevitable disasters along the way, the twenty-first century will see both human prosperity and natural biodiversity enhanced. Acute, refreshing, and revelatory, The Rational Optimist will change your way of thinking about the world for the better.

布鲁纳指出：单靠右手性的秩序、理性和纪律，人类的精神永远不能走向完满。
本书之所以令人激动，不仅是因为它的方法和它选择讨论的主题，还因为它是一个活路大脑的产物，它把自己也赋予了狡黠的左手，而不仅仅是右手。

本书是1970年联合国教科文组织出版的一部题为《人类和社会科学研究的主要趋势》的广泛研究报告的一部分，全书贯穿了认识论的思考，一方面力求标志出各种人文科学所共有的那种特殊认识的特征；另一方面作者试图以其“发生结构主义”的观点，去理解这些人文科学。

《赢家的诅咒》是诺贝尔经济学奖得主理查德·塞勒的经典著作，也是一部关于经济学悖论和反常现象的杰作。
本书深入探讨了经济生活中广泛存在的各种反常现象，用简明易懂、极具挑战性且很有趣的实验与案例，来阐述生活中的一些反常现象，例如：○ 拍卖竞标的赢家往往不能实现预期的收益，甚至会遭受损失，这就是“赢家的诅咒”现象；○ 放弃一项物品损失的效用，会大于获得它带来的效用，这就是“损失趋避”现象；○ 一个赌徒在输了一整天后，会孤注一掷，将赌资押在胜算最小(赔率最大)的目标上；○ 当一个人突然获得一笔小钱时，他通常会马上花掉它；当他获得了一大笔意外之财时，却往往会存起来；○ 一个足球迷最多会支付200美元买一张球赛门票，但当他准备出售这张票时，他却想卖到400美元以上。
据此，行为经济学大师理查德·塞勒剖析了这些不理性决策及其背后的深层原因，同时对最后通牒博弈、禀赋效应、偏好反转、损失趋避、现状偏误等诸多领域中的行为经济学现象进行了全面系统的分析和研究，将行为经济学与金融学的相关研究深入地结合在一起，从而启发读者的思考，在个人消费、企业营销与投资理财等方面获得更多的收益。

沃林格的这部早期著作是从情致的反命题出发的，抽象与移情的对峙构成了全书的结构，全书的论点和框架均由这个对峙而来。抽象是一个至上的艺术律令，沃林格首先是单纯作为移情的对立面而否定性地去界定这个概念的。至于移情这个概念，沃林格则是从立普斯的美学中吸收而来的，但他与立普斯不同 ，他不认为移情是我们面对对象的审美态度以之为前提条件并始终以其为特征的普遍原则，他更多地是把移情描述为这样一种审美态度，这种审美态度仅仅适用于古希腊罗马时期、文艺复兴时期，以及一切以之为传统的艺术作品和面对这种艺术作品的观赏者的态度，因而我们可以进一步推断，这种极具人性意味的向自然的移情并不是天生自在的，而是一种历史的产物，而且，尤其是由艺术所催发出的东西。
◎通过本书，读者可以触及到一个纲领性的核心，这不仅是艺术学和美学方面的核心，而且也是艺术史和艺术批评方面的核心。
◎出版之后短短十几年内，该书不断得到重新再版和修订，这本著作成了表现主义时代最杰出的艺术学文献。

病人为什么会爱上心理咨询师？爱上心理咨询师怎么办？无论是作者本人，还是作者的老师弗洛伊德，都有过这样的经历。心理学家们认为，这并不是真正的爱，而是发生了移情现象。在《移情心理学》中，荣格借助了十六世纪炼金术文献《哲人与玫瑰园》中的图片来阐述这一著名的心理现象。移情不仅发生在心理分析师和患者之间，也发生在人际关系之中，尤其是恋爱关系之中。这个过程和炼金过程相似，包括两人无意识的相遇、投射的发生、投射的收回、融合、新生命的诞生等。

Why are some disturbances of air molecules heard as 'noise' while others are perceived as music? What happens at the level of the sound wave, the ear, and the brain when we perform or listen to music? How do musical abilities emerge and develop, and become refined as one acquires musical expertise? And what gives music its deep emotional significance and its power to influence social behavior, across vastly different cultural contexts? These are some of the primary questions defining the field called 'the psychology of music' and driving the present volume. This book provides an introduction to classic and current studies in the psychology of music, combining a comprehensive summary with critical assessments of existing research. The volume captures the interdisciplinary breadth of the field, while covering central topics in depth. Part One explores sound and music at an acoustic level, explaining auditory events with respect to the workings of the ear and brain. Part Two focuses on perception and cognition of melody, rhythm, and formal structure. Part Three examines the emergence and development of musical skills, and turns to the most practical aspects of psychology of music: music practice and performance. Finally, Part Four broadens the discussion to the question of meaning in music, with respect to its social, emotional, philosophical, and cultural significance. Throughout, both behavioral and neuroscientific perspectives are developed. This book will be invaluable to undergraduate and postgraduate students in the fields of psychology and music, and will appeal to anyone else who is interested in the psychology of music.

The aim of the psychology of music is to understand musical phenomena in terms of mental functions - to characterize the ways in which one perceives, remembers, creates, and performs music. New to this Edition: Completely revised to cover new developments including the opportunity to generate, analyze, and transform sound by computer, advances in neuroscience that influence thinking about the way music is processed in the brain, and increased collaboration between psychologists and musicians. It features: encompasses the way the brain perceives, remembers, creates, and performs music; contributions from the top international researchers in perception and cognition of music; and designed for use as a textbook for advanced courses in psychology of music.

Since Descartes famously proclaimed, "I think, therefore I am," science has often overlooked emotions as the source of a person’s true being. Even modern neuroscience has tended, until recently, to concentrate on the cognitive aspects of brain function, disregarding emotions. This attitude began to change with the publication of Descartes’ Error in 1995. Antonio Damasio—"one of the world’s leading neurologists" ( The New York Times )—challenged traditional ideas about the connection between emotions and rationality. In this wondrously engaging book, Damasio takes the reader on a journey of scientific discovery through a series of case studies, demonstrating what many of us have long suspected: emotions are not a luxury, they are essential to rational thinking and to normal social behavior.

● 在20 世纪，笛卡尔推崇的身心二元论占据主流。二元论拒绝承认情绪在理性决策中的作用，认为情绪是理性思考的杂音。然而，既是临床医生又是神经科学家的达马西奥，提出了截然相反的观点，认为人类的理性决策离不开对身体情绪状态的感受。这一论断简单却有力，从根本上颠覆了支配西方几百年的身心二元论。自《笛卡尔的错误》出版以来，西方世界的哲学思想发生了根本性的转折。
● 在《笛卡尔的错误》中，达马西奥教授通过丰富的临床案例，令人信服地证明了情绪在人类理性决策中的重要作用。他提出的躯体标记假设，为身心之间的联结提供了当代科学的确证，把虚无缥缈的心智转变为具体可感的实在之物。为我们思考人类的理性和意识，开辟了一条全新的认识路径。
● 书中丰富的临床案例和富有洞见的理论假设，共同为我们带来一场人类意识探索的盛宴。达马西奥教授带领我们抽丝剥茧、层层深入，带领我们走进人类理性的深层结构之中。
