1. "Leadership is not easy"
Leadership ≠ authority,
Everyone who is eager to finish the work with others should read it;
The MPP and MPA of Kennedy School of Government and the teaching materials used in the "Leadership" course of the on-the-job official training program.
A great book! It is suitable for all ages, especially for our society that is desperate for wisdom and experience. The art of leadership, which is not easy, should be a must-read in all fields, including private, public and non-profit organizations. I hope all citizens have the opportunity to read this book and change their views on authority. This is also a good book about citizens.
-Mr Scott Paikert.
We always hope that leaders can quickly solve social problems such as uncertain economic prospects and declining education level. If they can't do it, we'll put them in the hostile camp. In fact, this practice not only hurts them, but also harms our own interests. In the face of unprecedented leadership crisis, Ronald Heifetz's book solves two problems at the same time, which not only points out the path for leaders to implement leadership, but also points out the correct path for people who expect leaders to provide answers.

3. Why and how do we study?
Reading, in order to keep the inner light, in order to maintain spiritual independence, in order to establish lifelong beliefs, in order to pursue the poetry and dignity of life. Read this book that lives in the world with your own eyes.
The process of reading is a process of communication between things and me. On the one hand, I use my mind and eyes to discover the ancients; On the other hand, through this discovery, we further affirm ourselves, expand and enrich ourselves, and establish a spiritual pillar to support ourselves, just as the Buddhists said, "the light shines on each other."
When we study, study and do research, we all have to ask a question: What is the relationship with our own life growth? Reading that has nothing to do with your life is dead reading; Research that has nothing to do with one's own life is research without life. ..... In short, read for the truth.
Qian Liqun
Professor Qian Liqun, a famous scholar, talked about the essence of reading and advocated seeking truth by reading in combination with his many years' study experience. This book sometimes exhorts young students, and sometimes takes us into the reading life of cultural masters such as Lu Xun and Zhou Zuoren. He advocated personalized reading with spiritual depth, and proposed to dive into the depths of history, civilization, life and human nature in order to gain the weight of life.
4. Humanities Tour of Flowers and Trees: One flower, one tree and one world are waiting for you to stop and enjoy.
Where did plants originate?
How to be spread and communicated?
What kind of image do you have in different cultures?
In different countries, plants often have different cultural connotations. Even in the same culture, the symbolic meaning of plants will change with the changes of history.
It was also in the Wei and Jin Dynasties that pine trees and flying white cranes were combined to have a floating fairy spirit. Static pine and leaping crane seem to be just a contrast and metaphor between inward retreat and outward and breakthrough change.
However, the idea of "lilac knot" in China has not spread, and Europeans have different meanings for this flower. In France, lilacs have the best climate and strong spring, so this kind of flower symbolizes the innocence and first love of young people.
Tolstoy talked about happiness. There is only one kind of happiness in the world, and that's what we need. What is this happiness?
Tolstoy once said:
Happy families are all alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.
But he also told us:
There is only one kind of happiness in the world,
This kind of happiness is what we need.
What is this happiness?
It is a life of love.
Life, no matter what, is the supreme happiness. If life is suffering, it is only compared with another better life we imagine. However, in fact, we don't know what a better life is, and we can't know it. Therefore, no matter what life is, it is the highest blessing we can get.
6. Professional ethics and civic ethics reveal the basic role of professional ethics in the development of modern society.
The amount of labor does not determine the value of things; The value of things is valued by society.
Because the law is a good thing, that is to say, the nature of the law is commensurate with the facts, because the law should be like this, and we trust it.
In our view, one is an obligation determined by fairness, and the other is an obligation determined by goodwill. In fairness, there is a further distinction, that is, distribution fairness and exchange fairness.
This book is Durkheim's late masterpiece, covering sociology, law and political science, which is instructive to the construction of modern political system. The author systematically investigates the social origin of professional ethics, thus revealing the basic role of professional ethics in the development of modern society. At the same time, it also discusses the special relationship between political form and public morality from the perspective of the relationship between the state and the individual. Finally, it traces the historical evolution of property rights and contractual rights, and then refutes the view of natural human rights. The author advocates taking social facts as the object of social research, so this book is not limited to the discussion of pure ethical theory, but combines the practice of law, politics and anthropology, thus reflecting its profound historical sociology perspective.
7. "Seeing China Culture from TCM" Understanding TCM is the entrance to understanding life and China traditional culture. Alternative medicine? Reflections on Chinese Medicine Culture
The deepest root of disease is fear; The unknown is the nest of fear.
The principle of China's needling is to affirm the empathy between life and the universe, which can be said to be a "metaphysical premise".
This book explores the medical knowledge and body structure in the history of China, and its cultural, political, social and gender significance. Traditional Chinese medicine is not only a technology, but also the entrance to understand life, imagine the body and dialectical knowledge. Traditional Chinese medicine is one of the core cultural resources of Chinese studies. Traditional Chinese medicine and Confucianism and Taoism are two sides of Chinese studies, which cannot be neglected. The ultimate goal of studying the literature and history of traditional Chinese medicine at different levels for modern people is to deepen and popularize "common sense of traditional Chinese medicine culture".

10. The Theory of Moral Sentiments (authoritative translation) is a classic in the history of world thought and an indispensable "Bible" for the benign operation of market economy.
I don't know what "self-interest" means until I read The Wealth of Nations, but I didn't know that "altruism" is "self-interest" until I read The Theory of Moral Sentiments.
If the fruits of a society's economic development cannot be truly distributed to the public, then it is morally unpopular and risky, because it is bound to threaten social stability.
-Adam Smith
Compared with The Wealth of Nations, The Theory of Moral Sentiments has a far-reaching influence on the western world. It plays a more fundamental role in promoting the greater social purpose of human welfare and is an indispensable "Bible" for the benign operation of the market economy.
-Amartya Sen, Nobel laureate in economics
