In a frank and unpretentious series of letters addressed to a teenage granddaughter, this highly original book teaches us to know and understand the world we live in and its rules, and how to behave in it. In these thirty letters, Alan Macfarlane answers his granddaughter's questions about how the world works, how it got to be as it is, what it could be, and where she fits in. Lily's enquiries range from the intimate, personal and moral to the political, social and philosophical. What is the nature of good and evil? What is religion? How can I be truly me? Is right and wrong the same wherever you are? What is beauty? Does there have to be torture? Does money matter? Is knowledge always good? What is progress? What is truth? What is sex? Is democracy a good idea? These are just a few of the questions. In responding to Lily's challenging problems, Alan Macfarlane, from a lifetime's experience as a historian, anthropologist and teacher, ranges through history and across the world's cultures. Her questions are timeless. His answers add up to a classic.

評分萬事非體驗不為真。 我們對於自己的世界有太多的理所當然,太多的迷亂。 知道瞭周圍有多少東西隻是一種虛構和創造,你就占據瞭一個更加有利的位置,能夠更好地享受世界瞭。 父母和孩子的相處是天然的難題,恰到好處的自由和引導太難瞭。現代個人主義的傢庭體係古怪透頂,很少人...
