最近睇過既書

My first blog :)

Currently Reading : 
The Chronicles of Narnia  by C.S. Lewis
好耐無讀過兒童叢書, 電影版才剛上映,
戲內女主角更大大聲話呢個世界只有兩種人 --
"The group who has read Narnia, and the group who has not."
一共七本, 我買左合訂version, 共767頁, 開始左兩日既我現時停留於第87頁。

比想像中好睇, 之前以為會好"行"既情節竟然帶來新鮮感,
可能因為近期睇太多比較大眾化既 thriller, 本本情節都估到大概,
極之少接觸既小朋友故事就反而讓我覺得新鮮, 刺激!

How Would You Move Mount Fuji? : Microsoft's Cult of the Puzzle -
How the World's Smartest Companies Select the Most Creative Thinkers
by William Poundstone
五粒星! 每條變態 interview問題都提供埋十分詳盡既分析方法同答案, 仲解構埋訪者點樣觀察被訪者既回答方式從而判斷其性格, 工作能力, 甚至有否改變其他同事之潛能等等。精彩精彩精彩! 讀完頓覺自己精左醒左兼思考能力高左, 但好可悲地這現象只持續了幾個鐘。
共288頁, 我對上一次拎起手好似係睇到一半少d。

Finished Last Week : 
Freakonomics: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything
by Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner

An absolute eye-opener! Just as the title suggests, the authors vigorously discuss the correlation (in some cases, causality) between seemingly unrelated people and things in our everyday lives.  His views are extremely unconventional but rather inspiring and, more importantly, entertaining.  I would agree that such topics are not nearly as practical though - it is unlikely they'd become the topics of my daily conversation with others.  And unless I can make my points as thoroughly and in such convincing ways as can Levitt, I doubt I can make  such arguments in real life. A very interesting read indeed.
