伊恩·奥拉索夫 时报出版社
人们有时会觉得,哲学不是一般人的活动,它只属于那些受过教育、能进行深度思考的人。作者觉得这说法不但是错的,也很危险。他的观点是任何能反思自身经验的人,都能做哲学。
自2016年起,作者和几位哲学教授以及研究生,开始在纽约各地设立“来问问哲学家”摊位,回答大家提出的好玩问题。其实,人人都能享受哲学、交流哲学想法,让哲学成为生活的一部分。

Can Singapore Survive?
Kishore Mahbubani Straits Times Press
The biggest danger Singapore faces is complacency. One key goal of this book is to encourage the development of such a culture of constant reflection and self-examination.
For young Singaporeans who never experienced third-world Singapore or direct contact with the great founding fathers of Singapore, these essays may provide a glimpse of the hard-headed thinking that also explains Singapore’s exceptional success over the years.

1232 km: The Long journey Home
Vinod Kapri HarperCollins
The nationwide lockdown in 2020 to curb the spread of Covid-19 left millions of migrant labourers without jobs, food and shelter. Desperate and helpless, most took to the road, embarking on the long, often fatal, journey home.
Ritesh, Ashish, Ram Babu, Sonu, Krishna, Sandeep and Mukesh-migrants from Bihar-undertook a similar journey on their bicycles that lasted for seven days and seven nights. Their harrowing trip from Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, to their hometown of Saharsa as they braved police lathis and insults, and battled hunger, exhaustion and fear, was documented by National Award-winning filmmaker Vinod Kapri.
1232 km is a story of the extraordinary courage of seven men in the face of tremendous odds.
