Its Rong itsrong — The author's thesis here is pretty much common sense, but it's the sort of common sense you usually need pointed out to you. Basically, he's just saying that relationships between the powerful and the powerless and full of deception. Both groups act a certain way when together, and act completely differently behind-the-scenes. In other words, people under an oppressive regime will talk one way when in the presence of their authorities, and another when they're talking behind the backs of their authorities. He calls the second sort of discourse a "hidden transcript". The basic idea is pretty obvious. People talk one way to their boss, and another way about their boss. That's not a novel suggestion. But James Scott applies this to historical readings. We need to remember that we usually get in history is the public transcript, the way people talk openly to and about each other. We rarely get access to the hidden transcript, what people say behind the backs of their authorities. He draws on numerous historical examples to illustrate his point, from eastern peasant populations to slaves in the antebellum south. The only problem for me was that the book wasn't organized by history (what I was more looking for), but by slightly nuanced points about his overall "hidden transcript" theory. Unfortunately, the nuances were so slight that the book just comes across as repetitive once you're into chapter 6 or 7. Overall, though, a great book, and definitely worth the read. His writing is surprisingly good, and the historical examples help a lot. Here one of my favorites, a quote from a post-bellum African-America in the south: I've joked with white people, in a nice way. I've had to play dumb sometimes--I knowed not to go too far and let them know what I knowed, because they taken exception of it too quick. I had to humble down and play shut-mouthed in many cases to get along, I've done it all--they didn't know what it was all about, it's just a plain fact....And I could go to 'em a heap of times for a favor and get it....They'd give you a good name if you was obedient to 'em, acted nice when you met 'em an didn't question 'em 'bout what they said they had against you. You begin to cry about your rights and the mistreatin' of you and they'd murder you.

魏 芊芊 alice1977 — This was an interesting book - composed of emails to family and friends about the recovery of one who suffered serious burns after 9/11. It only covered the 3 months following the attack, so I couldn't help but be curious what was happening in Lauren Manning's life 10 years later. It's amazing to see how well she is doing and how many people consider her an inspiration. She simply did what she had to and went through rehab to become as fully functional as possible after an accident. I believe she makes it seem easier said than done, and it is an inspiration to see someone overcome a difficult trial in their life. At the same time, let us not forget those who have also had accidents and who weren't able to recover as fully. They too should be a source of inspiration.
