自从《次第花开》问世以来，越来越多的读者开始了解希阿荣博堪布，并通过短信、微博、邮件等方式向堪布提出各种在生活及佛法修行上的疑问，希望得到指导。这些问题在一定程度上代表了人们的常见疑问，因此我们对这些本自独立的问题进行了编辑和归类。
《透过佛法看世界》包含七个部分，一百八十余个问题，从不同层面、由浅入深地介绍了佛法的基本见解和修行。书中大部分问答为首次公开发表，以前在媒体采访或通过菩提洲网站发表过的部分内容，这次又作了修改和调整，问题是老问题，回答却有新内容。
第一辑和第二辑主要阐述佛法能带给人们什么利益，如何从佛法的角度看待平常生活中的一些问题。在第三辑中，围绕有关轮回、因果、苦、慈悲，则更为具体地介绍了佛教在这些方面的基本观点。
第四辑针对已经开始修持佛法的人进行作答，包括如何辨别善知识，如何依止上师，闻思修的内在关系，正念的训练，止观，回向，等等，并特别强调了出离心。
第五辑《死生事大》对学佛者和不学佛者同样重要。因为无论信仰、价值观为何，每个人都不得不面对死和生。既然无可逃避，那么明智的做法就是尽量让自己做好准备。
第六辑《护生》是有关放生的问答。希阿荣博堪布已经发表的关于放生的文章很多，在这本书里，堪布开示的重点是如何改进放生，做到周到、细致。
值得一提的是第七辑《空性》，这是希阿荣博堪布第一次大篇幅地用汉语讲解佛法的精华所在——般若空性。空性见解甚深微妙，即使只是简单介绍，恐怕也不好懂。堪布在语言上尽可能地使用人们比较熟悉的词汇，但回答问题时所使用的推理、辨析、讲解的方法和模式却是来自传统的佛法教材，从中读者可以领略到佛教逻辑思维的犀利和巧妙。

Peter Bevelin begins his fascinating book with Confucius' great wisdom: "A man who has committed a mistake and doesn't correct it, is committing another mistake." Seeking Wisdom is the result of Bevelin's learning about attaining wisdom. His quest for wisdom originated partly from making mistakes himself and observing those of others but also from the philosophy of super-investor and Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Charles Munger. A man whose simplicity and clarity of thought was unequal to anything Bevelin had seen.
In addition to naturalist Charles Darwin and Munger, Bevelin cites an encyclopedic range of thinkers: from first-century BCE Roman poet Publius Terentius to Mark Twain—from Albert Einstein to Richard Feynman—from 16th Century French essayist Michel de Montaigne to Berkshire Hathaway Chairman Warren Buffett. In the book, he describes ideas and research findings from many different fields.
This book is for those who love the constant search for knowledge. It is in the spirit of Charles Munger, who says, "All I want to know is where I'm going to die so I'll never go there." There are roads that lead to unhappiness. An understanding of how and why we can "die" should help us avoid them. We can't eliminate mistakes, but we can prevent those that can really hurt us.
Using exemplars of clear thinking and attained wisdom, Bevelin focuses on how our thoughts are influenced, why we make misjudgments and tools to improve our thinking. Bevelin tackles such eternal questions as: Why do we behave like we do? What do we want out of life? What interferes with our goals?
Read and study this wonderful multidisciplinary exploration of wisdom. It may change the way you think and act in business and in life.

One of America’s foremost philosophers offers a major new account of the origins of the conscious mind.
How did we come to have minds?
For centuries, this question has intrigued psychologists, physicists, poets, and philosophers, who have wondered how the human mind developed its unrivaled ability to create, imagine, and explain. Disciples of Darwin have long aspired to explain how consciousness, language, and culture could have appeared through natural selection, blazing promising trails that tend, however, to end in confusion and controversy. Even though our understanding of the inner workings of proteins, neurons, and DNA is deeper than ever before, the matter of how our minds came to be has largely remained a mystery.
That is now changing, says Daniel C. Dennett. In From Bacteria to Bach and Back, his most comprehensive exploration of evolutionary thinking yet, he builds on ideas from computer science and biology to show how a comprehending mind could in fact have arisen from a mindless process of natural selection. Part philosophical whodunit, part bold scientific conjecture, this landmark work enlarges themes that have sustained Dennett’s legendary career at the forefront of philosophical thought.
In his inimitable style―laced with wit and arresting thought experiments―Dennett explains that a crucial shift occurred when humans developed the ability to share memes, or ways of doing things not based in genetic instinct. Language, itself composed of memes, turbocharged this interplay. Competition among memes―a form of natural selection―produced thinking tools so well-designed that they gave us the power to design our own memes. The result, a mind that not only perceives and controls but can create and comprehend, was thus largely shaped by the process of cultural evolution.
An agenda-setting book for a new generation of philosophers, scientists, and thinkers, From Bacteria to Bach and Back will delight and entertain anyone eager to make sense of how the mind works and how it came about.

本书是作者长期研究出土易学的成果集结。前两章，分别讨论了数字卦问题，梳理了《说卦》三篇后得和汲冢竹书《易》等问题，解决了“《周易》卦爻画的性质和来源是什么”的重大疑难问题。中间五章，研究了马王堆帛书《易传》的文本和思想；从解《易》原则、阴阳说、乾坤说及今本、帛书之思想比较四个方面，全面概括和论述了帛书《易传》哲学思想的基本要点及其学术价值；还论证了《缪和》《昭力》二篇的“子曰”和“孔子曰”的观点。最后两章，梳理和分析了《老子》《周易》这两种经典的文本演变特征及文本思想之相互作用的关系，并从出土易学材料的角度论述了《周易》经学的哲学解释问题。

本教材的主要特点有二：一是结合各种版本，纠正以前学者的很多误解，其中有很多新的见解，可以把《论语》的理解，往前推进一步。二是以文本的阐释为根据，结合制度与文化，来考察孔子的思想，思想的解释务求从孔子的社会背景和独特经历出发，讲究平实，言必有证，不做过度发挥。

在德国历史中，神话总是与政治密切相关，如“红胡子”弗里德里希大帝会再度降临的传说、民族史诗《尼伯龙人之歌》、浮士德与魔鬼订约的故事、普鲁士国王弗里德里希二世的轶事……由它们所衍生的神话在各个时期被用来解释不同的现实。“二战”之后，分裂的德国对于政治神话的解读又产生了截然不同的态度。本书采用宏大的历史分析方法，论述了德国近代以来的政治神话，尤其注重考察它的嬗变过程，它如何塑造德国人的民族个性，德国人独具怎样的力量以激励行动，德国的政治悲剧如何与神话联系在一起。本书不仅涉及德国人的历史和心态，还是一部关于现代政治的极富启发性的著作，见解独到，译笔流畅，具有极强的可读性。

《哲学与宗教》（1804）是谢林的“同一性哲学”时期的代表著作之一，其从发表伊始就引发大量争议，被认为在他的整个哲学发展过程中扮演着承前启后的关键角色。在这部著作里，谢林提出了哲学与宗教“同源分流”，并最终回归“永恒同盟”的思想。从这个角度出发，谢林一方面反驳了宗教信仰对于哲学的僭越主张，坚决捍卫哲学和理性的至高无上的地位，另一方面以一种简明扼要的方式勾勒出了他的哲学体系的基本框架和主要议题。
本卷收录的另外几部（篇）著作，《伊曼努尔•康德》（1804）和《论德国科学的本质》（1807）表达了谢林对于同时代德国哲学的形势和走向的看法，《哲学导论》（1804）以阐释哲学史的方式引导初学者去接触“真正的哲学”，而《自然哲学导论箴言录》（1806）和《自然哲学箴言录》（1806）则是以独特的箴言写作方式阐释了他的哲学体系的基础部分（即“自然哲学”）。这些著作从多个方面进一步展示了谢林“同一性哲学”的丰富面貌。

《近代哲学史》（1833/34）是谢林的代表作之一。作为德国古典哲学大师，谢林以高屋建瓴的方式阐述了近代哲学从笛卡尔直至谢林本人后期哲学的演进过程，其中不但包含着他对自己的早期哲学的检讨，更包含着他对黑格尔哲学的详细的批判分析。本卷收录的另外两篇著作，《为维克多·库桑先生哲学著作所作序》（1834）和《哲学经验论述要》（1834），从不同方面补充或进一步阐发了《近代哲学史》中的相关思想。这三篇著作形成了一个相对完整的整体。《近代哲学史》对于理解近代哲学的精神实质，理解谢林的后期哲学、谢林在德国唯心主义中的定位、谢林与黑格尔的关系等等都具有重要意义。

近代扑面而来的西方教育体系和美学理论，早已抑制了我们内心对中国传统审美价值的认知。而黑川先生则运用了“日本是西方世界观的奴隶”的警语，为我们打开了通往重新审视自我内心、开启审美意识的门扉。

为理解“法”，必然要掌握发现“法”的方法。本书介绍法学方法论方面必需的知识，而不牵涉法哲学上的复杂争论。藉由本书所介绍之方法论，法律一方面获得了最大限度的确定性，另一方面又为其最为基本的任务的实现，即合乎正义地解决各种法律问题，留下了空间。

《科学研究纲领方法论》由著名数学学家和科学哲家，代科哲学历史学派主要代表人物伊姆雷·拉卡托斯著。《科学研究纲领方法论》收入了作者的关于科学哲学的五篇重要论文集中体现了作者的科学哲学观和历史方法论。书中批判了波普尔的证主义方法论与库思的理性主义科学心理学，提出了一个理论演替的合理的动态的科学发展模式。

本书系德国著名哲学家、现象学创始人埃德蒙德·胡塞尔生前出版的最后一部带有总结性的著作，是艰涩难懂的现象学中最为易懂的一部专著。胡塞尔在书中阐述了欧洲科学危机的现实表现及其历史根源；同时批判了实证主义的科学观，批判了存在主义和非理性主义的哲学思想，力图建立一种全新的、绝对真的严科学——现象学、为解决其他科学的危机提供坚实的基础。
这是现象学对近代以来的科学思维的反思胡塞尔在本书中以伽利略为起点,以现象学的方法详尽地考察了伽利略所构建的近代科学的思维，第一次阐述了现象学的一个重要概念“生活世界”。

《人文科学宏大理论的回归》是“格致人文读本”系列丛书之一，其主编是英国著名学者昆廷·斯金纳。该书汇集了十位在思想史研究领域颇有成就的学者，分别撰述十章内容，从大理论的回归角度概述了现代一些主要思想家的思想方法、路径和意义，是现代思想史方面的重要著作。
本书分析讨论的思想家包括伽达默尔、德里达、福柯、库恩、罗尔斯、哈贝马斯、阿尔都塞、列维-施特劳斯和法国年鉴学派的代表人物。这些思想家的研究涵盖了哲学、社会学、历史学等许多人文社科学科，并且是各个领域的权威和知名人物，本书每一章都试图简明而又清晰地阐述各个思想家的相关理论，并适当介绍了这些思想家与其他学术巨人之间的分歧、冲突。

希腊化罗马时代是各种“新哲学”纷纷兴起并威胁古典哲学基本框架的时代。公元一世纪的普鲁塔克（Plutarch，公元45年-120年）如中流砥柱奋起捍卫古典共和的高贵理想：他的《道德论集》和《希腊罗马名人合传》机智、深刻、典雅，富于激情和风趣，魅力无穷，不仅在当时的罗马帝国，而且在近现代的西方世界深深影响了一代代思想家、政治家和文学艺术家。“普鲁塔克”这个名字在西方已经远远超出学院的门墙。它几乎成为一个文化符号，一种时代精神的代表，一种政治文化的象征。

普罗提诺（公元204—270）是晚期希腊哲学中的无可争议的大师级人物，堪称整个古代希腊哲学伟人传统最后一位辉煌代表，是亚里士多德与奥古斯—厂之间700年中最伟大的哲学家。普罗提诺继承了希腊哲学的创造性的、积极的、肯定的那一方面传统，在许多方面深化与系统化，开创出这一传统最后一个富于哲学思辨深度与广度的博大体系，为希腊思想史划上了圆满的、令人无憾的终止符。他的思想中闪动着西方文化史中新的因素乃至现代的冈素。《九章集》是普罗提诺五十四篇论文的汇总，是以“非体系”的方式写出的“体系”。每篇论文都围绕某个具体观点而演绎“体系”的全部内涵，其思想的“密度”、多层次叙事的“维度”、文字所无法掩饰的生命“力度”以及“自我”直观的“深度”叹为观止。普罗提诺淋漓尽致地诠释了理性所能够达致的颤栗，使“神秘”不因为表述的“神秘”而真正地“神秘”，并以哲学的方式呈现了宗教所要溯及的情怀。

世人对花道有很多误解，认为花道是女性化的、感性飘渺的艺术；学习花道，需要具备较高的艺术感悟力，等等。而作者告诉我们，其实，花道的世界，有着严谨的逻辑和一目了然的造型结构；花道之美，是数学式的理性之美；花道，是人人都可以学习和贴近日常生活文化的存在。
“未生流笹冈”第三代家元笹冈隆甫，从一名花道家和传统文化守护者的视角出发，探讨了日本花道的历史、传承、流派、花型的演变、东西方差异、插花的习俗理念和基本技巧、插花与四季、插花与日本传统文化的关系，以及传统的传承困境与新思路等问题。

For the first time, Guy Debord's pivotal work Society of the Spectacle appears in a definitive and authoritative English translation. Originally published in France in 1967, Society of the Spectacle offered a set of radically new propositions about the nature of contemporary capitalism and modern culture. At the same time it was one of the most influential theoretical works for a wide range of political and revolutionary practice in the 1960s. Today, Debord's work continues to be in the forefront of debates about the fate of consumer society and the operation of modern social power. In a sweeping revision of Marxist categories, the notion of the spectacle takes the problem of the commodity from the sphere of economics to a point at which the commodity as an image dominates not only economic exchange but the primary communicative and symbolic activity of all modern societies.Guy Debord was one of the most important participants in the activities associated with the Situationist International in the 1960s. Also an artist and filmmaker, he is the author of Memoires and Commentaires sur la societe du spectacle. A Swerve Edition, distributed for Zone Books.

Walter Benjamin was one of the most original cultural critics of the twentieth century. Illuminations includes his views on Kafka, with whom he felt a close personal affinity; his studies on Baudelaire and Proust; and his essays on Leskov and on Brecht's Epic Theater. Also included are his penetrating study "The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction," an enlightening discussion of translation as a literary mode, and Benjamin's theses on the philosophy of history.
Hannah Arendt selected the essays for this volume and introduces them with a classic essay about Benjamin's life in dark times. Also included is a new preface by Leon Wieseltier that explores Benjamin's continued relevance for our times.

Andre Bazin's What Is Cinema? (volumes I and II) have been classics of film studies for as long as they've been available and are considered the gold standard in the field of film criticism. Although Bazin made no films, his name has been one of the most important in French cinema since World War II. He was co-founder of the influential Cahiers du Cinema, which under his leadership became one of the world's most distinguished publications. Championing the films of Jean Renoir (who contributed a short foreword to Volume I), Orson Welles, and Roberto Rossellini, he became the protege of Francois Truffaut, who honors him touchingly in his forword to Volume II. This new edition includes graceful forewords to each volume by Bazin scholar and biographer Dudley Andrew, who reconsiders Bazin and his place in contemporary film study. The essays themselves are erudite but always accessible, intellectual, and stimulating. As Renoir puts it, the essays of Bazin "will survive even if the cinema does not."

作为著名的德国哲学家、法兰克福学派的倡导者，霍克海默所提出的“批判理论”在德国思想界具有举足轻重的地位。本书即是他的代表作之一。正如作者自己所说，本书探讨的是这样一个主题，即文化进步走向其对立面的各种趋势。本书正是通过对20世纪30和40年代美国社会现象的描述，试图着揭示这一主题。
