When The Name of the Wind came out a few years ago, one of my first concerns--after reading the novel and enjoying the heck out of it, of course--was whether Rothfuss could follow it up with a worthy sequel. The publishing world is full of wunderkinds who failed to live up to the hype. So how does Rothfuss fare with The Wise Man's Fear? Is his followup a worth successor? Well . . . mostly. One thing I vividly recall about The Name of the Wind was how bloody fast I read the original. Once the story got moving, I almost couldn't turn the pages fast enough. Unfortunately, this was not the case with Wise Man's Fear. If I remember correctly, Rothfuss spends about 350 pages depicting Kvothe's ongoing education at the University, his dealings with his friends, and his pining for Denna. It was a LONG 350 pages. It's not that Rothfuss has changed his writing style--he's still easy to read, almost breezy. But it felt like the book was "treading water", waiting for the plot to catch up. This is a long book, but waiting that long to get going is just plain sloppy. This section was often painful for me, as it reminded me of Robert Jordan's later works in which characters long for the opposite sex for freakin' ever. Once Kvothe finally leaves the University things begin to pick up, and the novel becomes more enjoyable. The book feels a bit compartmentalized, however. The narrative felt a bit like Kovthe short stories stitched together--his work for rich noble, his dealings with the fairie world, his training with Adem warriors, and so forth. Individually his experiences are interesting, but they weren't as engaging as the first novel. Some sections, the Felurian/fairy section in particular, felt unnecessary and tacked on. In the end, I did enjoy the book despite my issues. I did feel like it was entirely too long, as if Rothfuss kept expanding the story to reward his legion of fans. It reminded me a bit of J.K. Rowling's last few novels that truly needed a forceful editor to step up and say "This is too much. Less is more!" I will certainly read the next book in the series but I won't be as eager as I was for this one, and I most definitely hope Rothfuss reigns in on the length for length's sake.

Đêm Qua Sân Trước Một Cành Mai (Tái bản lần 1) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Izzy wakes up in the hospital, groggy and confused. Finally she remembers what happened: she had gone to a party with her date Marco, and when the time came to leave he was drunk, but still attempted to drive her home. After they crashed into a tree, both of Izzy's legs are broken, and one of them has to be amputated. At first Izzy avoids even thinking about her leg. She's a nice girl, and she doesn't want to cause anyone any trouble or make them feel uncomfortable around her. Too bad her friends barely talk to her. Then Rosamunde, a girl from Latin Club, shows up. Izzy never would have hung out with Rosamunde before... but there is something about Rosamunde's direct way of confronting Izzy's new handicap that helps her through it. I was excited to read this due to my love for the Tillerman books by Cynthia Voigt (A Solitary Blue is one of my favorite books). This wasn't quite as good as those, I thought, mostly because Izzy is just too damn nice. I doubt many teen readers will be able to identify with her unless they've actually lost a leg themselves. She starts out as the nice, perfect, popular girl, and even after the accident and everyone is being weird around her, she never calls them on it or tells them that it makes her feel like crap. Many of the details were also very old-fashioned, the way it was unusual for Rosamunde to want to be a lawyer and Izzy's desire to meet a husband (perhaps at college), and be a housewife. I also found lacking the parts where Izzy believes she will never get a husband now - there is no hopeful resolution there except one small incident. I think back in its time, Izzy, Willy-Nilly would have been a great heartwarming young adult novel about a girl struggling to deal with a disability, but in the world of YA publishing today I'm not sure it holds up. Shark Girl, for example, was a much more interesting and modern take on the same idea. There are a couple of minor swears, so this is not an entirely clean read, but it's very close.

Flow is the state where all mental energies are concentrated on an event which results in the person attaining "optimal experience," which is basically happiness. C(I refuse to spell this authors insane surname), states that to be happy we need to lessen our mental chaos by providing/creating a structure for our mental energies to play in. He identifies certain conditions required to achieve flow: 1. The person must be engaged in an activity that requires skill. 2. There is a convergence of Action and Awareness 3. Clear goals and feedback 4. The activity has structure 5. Focus 6. The loss of self consciousness 7. The loss of the awareness of time To be honest I was disappointed with this book. After reading Haidt's "The Happiness Hypothesis," I had such high expectations for one of the pioneers of the Positive Psychology movement. I can see why some critics claim the movement is merely neo-humanism. A rehashing of what Adler, Maslow, Erickson et al have said. To be fair though, he did write in the preface that he had written this edition in laymen's terms. I think he watered it down too much. It read like a run of the mill self-help book, with the usual "its not the situation, it's your interpretation of it," that determines your feelings, etc. etc. etc. I feel like the book merely points out things that, on some level, we all intuitively know already. The book is content in merely observing and categorizing human behavior, an attribute of popular psychology, which I feel gives psychology demerits in credibility. The book is content with saying aim for this but barely touches the surface of the important thing which is: how? I also have qualms in C's method of data collection. He uses a method he calls the ESM or Experience Sampling Method. The method involves giving subjects a pager that will sound at certain points of the day. The subject is then suppose to write down their feelings at that time. Basically a sporadic interviewing of the subjects. This poses a problem as what people write are not really what they mean. For example, in Cacioppo and Patrick's "Loneliness," they presented a subject who overtly showed and expressed that he was a happy person. But when the subject was asked to answer a questionnaire used to determine if someone is depressed, his answers revealed that he was indeed the opposite of what he was telling people. He was depressed and he agreed to the findings of the questionnaire. Of course in any science, our measurements are only as good as the tools we use to measure with. In psychology, this becomes convoluted. I do however, think of the postulates much. Particularly when I am working with my client who is cognitively impaired, I think, "How can I get this person into flow?" So there is definitely something there. I just wish he hadn't buried the paradigm with glitter.

Wow: I really liked this book. I know what you're thinking. "Isn't this kind of like Guns, Germs, and Steel Don't I already probably basically know the story of what happened when Europeans showed up in the Americas?" Answers: No, and probably not. Mann has done a really excellent job here of telling the story of the "Columbian Exchange": the movement of people, metals, plants, insects, pathogens, animals, and, well, just about anything you can imagine, between the New World and the Old World. And the key word here is movement — bi-directional movement. It's not just about Europeans bringing disease to the New World, it's not just about maize going to the Old World. It's not really even about Europe vs. the Americas — Asia plays an equally important role here as the western route of the Columbian Exchange. Most importantly, Mann has done an excellent job of collating, synthesizing, and popularizing bounds and bounds of scholarly work on the Americas before Contact. I learned tons about these cultures, their environmental practices, their agricultural practices, their living practices. Mann leaves no stone unturned, which makes for a fairly long book, but really, every page is chock-a-block with amazing stories, well-woven together, all of which have as much relevance for the present moment as they do the historical past. I've been reading this for many months, now, on and off, and it has supplied me with an endless font of cocktail party conversational points. I know, maybe that's not your bag, but seriously, this stuff is fascinating. More importantly, Mann has a wonderful way of writing. You get sucked in, and you never feel talked down to. He's never erudite to be erudite, he's never pedantic, he never lectures. He just leads you through interesting historical events, connecting them all together with a narrative of globalization (one he is smart enough to be ambivalent about). It's a fascinating book; I can't recommend it enough. This should be mandatory reading in every high school and college in the United States.
