所有動物一律平等，但有些動物比其他動物更平等。 劉紹銘教授重新翻譯歐威爾經典名作 曼納農莊莊主鍾斯先生飽食終日，性嗜杯中物，為人刻薄寡恩，農莊內的大小豬狗牛羊雞馬騾，日間撐着老命給莊主幹活，吃的只夠半飽，且不說工作表現一不如意就得受皮肉之苦。 且說一個仲夏之夜鍾斯在酒鋪買醉，晨昏顛倒，隔天中午才回到農莊，完全沒有把餵飼動物這回事放在心上。他一摸進家門便倒頭睡在客廳沙發上。動物們也因此一直空着肚子捱餓。最後他們實在忍不住了，但見一隻牛用角撞開貯糧庫的大門，各動物應聲而上，各自分頭從飼料箱取東西填肚子。 鍾斯先生這時突然驚醒，一瞬間跟手下四名傭工趕到貯糧庫，手執皮鞭四邊狠狠的抽打一番。這教肚子餓壞了的動物忍無可忍，大夥兒不約而同撲向一直折磨他們的狠心主人。鍾斯一夥突然發覺四面受敵，被犄角牴，蹄子踢，形勢完全失控。他們從沒見過或想過動物竟然有此舉動。這些牲畜都曾經是他們隨意鞭撻、即興折磨的奴隸，現在居然變了面，怎教他不嚇破了膽。就在這電光火石的一刻，他們決定不再糾纏了，拔腿飛跑，離開了曼納農莊。 動物終於當家作主，成了農莊主人，從此─ 歐威爾的《動物農莊》原副題為「童話故事」，旨在諷刺蘇聯革命，並推而廣之警醒大眾在種種煽動的、危險的「社會主義」論調中保持清醒，提高警覺。

Renowned urban artist Shepard Fairey's new look for Orwell's timeless satire 'All animals are equal. But some animals are more equal than others.' Mr Jones of Manor Farm is so lazy and drunken that one day he forgets to feed his livestock. The ensuing rebellion under the leadership of the pigs Napoleon and Snowball leads to the animals taking over the farm. Vowing to eliminate the terrible inequities of the farmyard, the renamed Animal Farm is organised to benefit all who walk on four legs. But as time passes, the ideals of the rebellion are corrupted, then forgotten. And something new and unexpected emerges. . . Animal Farm - the history of a revolution that went wrong - is George Orwell's brilliant satire on the corrupting influence of power.

Renowned urban artist Shepard Fairey's new look for Orwell's dystopian masterpiece Winston Smith works for the Ministry of Truth in London, chief city of Airstrip One. Big Brother stares out from every poster, the Thought Police uncover every act of betrayal. When Winston finds love with Julia, he discovers that life does not have to be dull and deadening, and awakens to new possibilities. Despite the police helicopters that hover and circle overhead, Winston and Julia begin to question the Party; they are drawn towards conspiracy. Yet Big Brother will not tolerate dissent - even in the mind. For those with original thoughts they invented Room 101. . . 1984 is George Orwell's terrifying vision of a totalitarian future in which everything and everyone is slave to a tyrannical regime.

聆聽才是溝通的王道
但為什麼我們失去了聆聽的能力？

在工作場合上，主導對話才能出頭。
在社群媒體上，敘述力決定個人魅力。
交際應酬時，人人都在搶話說。政治人物也一樣。
我們從不好好聽人說話。
也沒人好好聽我們說話。

真正的聆聽表現在你如何回應──
你是否正確理解對方的發言？
你是否明白對方的情緒？
｛ 獻給曾經被誤解，以及覺得被誤解的人 ｝

──到底有誰在聽你說話？
　　《紐約時報》撰稿人凱特‧墨菲詢問了來自五大洲的受訪者這個問題，卻迎來一片尷尬的沉默。大家想不出如今還有誰可以真正專心聆聽，而不恍神、瞄一下手機，或急著插話、表達意見。許多人自認並非善解人意的聆聽者，大多數人更無法描述何謂合格的聆聽者。

　　現代數位科技讓我們隨時都能與人溝通交流並產生連結。然而，周圍似乎沒有人認真傾聽，甚至也不知道如何傾聽。於是，交談變得前所未有地容易的同時，我們卻反而更寂寞、更孤立，也比以往更無法容納異己。本書作者凱特‧墨菲的工作就是聽人說話，她想探究這樣的結果究竟是如何造成的。

　　在這本發人省思、幽默有趣的著作中，作者深入探討我們為什麼不聽人說話、缺乏傾聽能力對我們有何影響，而我們又該如何扭轉這樣的趨勢。她深入淺出地介紹了傾聽的心理學、神經學和社會學原理，也帶我們認識當今最擅長傾聽的專家，包括中情局探員、焦點團體主持人、酒保、廣播節目製作人，還有頂尖家具銷售員。書中有文化觀察，有科學研究，也鼓勵人採取行動，並提供許多實用的建議。

　　作者發現，聆聽者乍看是對話中溫順的一方，實際上卻處於溝通中更有力量的位置。只要願意傾聽，就會學到新東西。聆聽，是與他人連結、合作、感同身受、談戀愛的基礎，說到底，也是我們每天選擇去做或不做的事。聽人說話顯得勢在必行，但是聆聽能力的優劣、選擇聽誰說話、在什麼情境下聆聽，在在決定我們成為什麼樣的人，以及要走的人生道路。
