以宽仁之心化解惨案的发生 Amish Grace : How Forgiveness Transcended Tragedy 下载 pdf 电子版 epub 免费 txt 2025

On Monday morning, October 2, 2006, a gunman entered a one-room Amish school in Nickel Mines, Pennsylvania. In front of twenty-five horrified pupils, thirty-two-year-old Charles Roberts ordered the boys and the teacher to leave. After tying the legs of the ten remaining girls, Roberts prepared to shoot them execution with an automatic rifle and four hundred rounds of ammunition that he brought for the task. The oldest hostage, a thirteen-year-old, begged Roberts to "shoot me first and let the little ones go." Refusing her offer, he opened fire on all of them, killing five and leaving the others critically wounded. He then shot himself as police stormed the building. His motivation? "I'm angry at God for taking my little daughter," he told the children before the massacre.

The story captured the attention of broadcast and print media in the United States and around the world. By Tuesday morning some fifty television crews had clogged the small village of Nickel Mines, staying for five days until the killer and the killed were buried. The blood was barely dry on the schoolhouse floor when Amish parents brought words of forgiveness to the family of the one who had slain their children.

The outside world was incredulous that such forgiveness could be offered so quickly for such a heinous crime. Of the hundreds of media queries that the authors received about the shooting, questions about forgiveness rose to the top. Forgiveness, in fact, eclipsed the tragic story, trumping the violence and arresting the world's attention.

Within a week of the murders, Amish forgiveness was a central theme in more than 2,400 news stories around the world. The Washington Post, The New York Times, USA Today, Newsweek, NBC Nightly News, CBS Morning News, Larry King Live, Fox News, Oprah, and dozens of other media outlets heralded the forgiving Amish. From the Khaleej Times (United Arab Emirates) to Australian television, international media were opining on Amish forgiveness. Three weeks after the shooting, "Amish forgiveness" had appeared in 2,900 news stories worldwide and on 534,000 web sites.

Fresh from the funerals where they had buried their own children, grieving Amish families accounted for half of the seventy-five people who attended the killer's burial. Roberts' widow was deeply moved by their presence as Amish families greeted her and her three children. The forgiveness went beyond talk and graveside presence: the Amish also supported a fund for the shooter's family.

AMISH GRACE explores the many questions this story raises about the religious beliefs and habits that led the Amish to forgive so quickly. It looks at the ties between forgiveness and membership in a cloistered communal society and ask if Amish practices parallel or diverge from other religious and secular notions of forgiveness. It will also address the matter of why forgiveness became news. "All the religions teach it," mused an observer, "but no one does it like the Amish." Regardless of the cultural seedbed that nourished this story, the surprising act of Amish forgiveness begs for a deeper exploration. How could the Amish do this? What did this act mean to them? And how might their witness prove useful to the rest of us?

  《百年孤独》的伟大早有耳闻，中国一代作家都深受马尔克斯的影响。当年出于虚荣心想把它读毕，但是晦涩的语言与冗长的人名、非线性的结构而罢休，它被我冷落在书架上迟迟未动。几天前读罢《霍乱时期的爱情》，一时兴起，便打开它。当年在叫苦不迭中未曾发现的奇妙体验就如潮水一样淹没了一切，顺着不断回环的故事与无法消解的孤独，我看见了马孔多在飓风中拔地而起，看见了上校的儿子一个接一个被枪杀，看见无数对男女性交的场面。我才模模糊糊地体味到这本书真正的韵味，虚幻与现实交织，不断地回环与重演，逆流而上最终重回原点。阿尔卡蒂奥与奥雷里亚诺的无数次出现，应验了羊皮卷中的预言......马尔克斯是毋庸置疑的大师，翻译也极为优秀。一气呵成读完整部作品。当年我还远不到读这本书的时候，四处向人夸张它的晦涩，想来是我太虚荣与幼稚。

  《用户体验方法论》

  卢克·米勒

  产品运营可以认真读一下，和pm干架的时候，就可以多很多底层原理作为支撑了。用户体验设计是一种思维方法和观察方法。一旦你开始这样做了，你会发现自己总能注意到一些可以加入设计中的有用和有创意的功能，到处都能发现好创意，有些完全来自技术世界之外。

  每个产品功能在设计前，都可以问问自己以下2个问题：

  “你讲的故事跟用户的故事匹配吗？

  你的故事与你要解决的问题匹配吗？”

  对这些问题，如果未能给出满意的答案。从此以后，无论你设计的是屏幕，还是文本和交互，都要把这些问题牢记于心。

  因为很多产品设计与人类的欲望和需求太不协调。优秀的设计会赋予从冰箱到汽车方向灯的任何物体以个性和吸引力。

  用户体验师就是要调动起用户的这些情感和期待，确保能把产品故事讲到用户的心里去。

  【书中摘要】

  弄清楚用户去哪儿、什么时候

  永远不要放过任何可以根据用户和他们的情感调整流程的机会。

  习惯于飞来飞去的人过去经常投诉在等行李上浪费很多时间。于是机场高层做出决策，雇用更多工人来运送行李。投诉的人少了，但并不表明问题完全解决了。他们雇用咨询师来做系统分析，这个工作与用户体验设计师工作性质相仿。咨询师们记录了一般顾客在机场逗留期间（从飞机落地至到达行李提取处）所经历的每个步骤，这个工作与绘制流程图相当。他们计算了飞机落地后滑行到登机口的时间，以及每个步骤所需要的时间。他们发现，乘客从舷桥走到行李提取处的平均时间为两分钟，等行李时间平均为8分钟。飞机滑行时间不能改变，需要雇用更多的工人来把行李从飞机上卸下并运到行李提取处。所以这两个步骤都不是重点。于是咨询师把注意力转到了乘客从舷桥走到行李提取处的时间上。他们建议将舷桥放的再远些，这样一来，乘客从舷桥到行李提取处的时间就变成了8分钟，等行李的时间就仅有两分钟了。这一改进让顾客投诉量大幅度下降。

  在认知心理学中，人们对占用的时间和未占用时间的感知存在差异，所以区别就在这里。等待行李的时间让人不快，因为这是死时间，而乘客不觉得走路是浪费时间。

  开始绘制线框图

  完美境界的获得不是没有什么可以添加的时候，而是没有什么可以带走的时候。

  别人的不足就是你的机会

  别人的不足就是我的机会。”我是在《财富》杂志上读到这句话的。

  保持开放性思维

  创造性在很大程度上源于人与人之间的协作。你其实永远也不知道在哪儿会获得好创意，谁又会带给你好点子。英国诗人约翰·多恩写过一首诗歌，很有名：“没有人是座孤岛，能自成一体。每一个人都是大洲的一块陆地，都是整体的一部分。”做用户体验设计也是同样的道理。

  灵感处处有

  用户体验设计是一种思维方法和观察方法。一旦你开始这样做了，你会发现自己总能注意到一些可以加入设计中的有用和有创意的功能，到处都能发现好创意，有些完全来自技术世界之外
