“Christopher Hogwood came home on my lap in a shoebox. He was a creature who would prove in many ways to be more human than I am.”

–from The Good Good Pig

A naturalist who spent months at a time living on her own among wild creatures in remote jungles, Sy Montgomery had always felt more comfortable with animals than with people. So she gladly opened her heart to a sick piglet who had been crowded away from nourishing meals by his stronger siblings. Yet Sy had no inkling that this piglet, later named Christopher Hogwood, would not only survive but flourish–and she soon found herself engaged with her small-town community in ways she had never dreamed possible. Unexpectedly, Christopher provided this peripatetic traveler with something she had sought all her life: an anchor (eventually weighing 750 pounds) to family and home.

The Good Good Pig celebrates Christopher Hogwood in all his glory, from his inauspicious infancy to hog heaven in rural New Hampshire, where his boundless zest for life and his large, loving heart made him absolute monarch over a (mostly) peaceable kingdom. At first, his domain included only Sy’s cosseted hens and her beautiful border collie, Tess. Then the neighbors began fetching Christopher home from his unauthorized jaunts, the little girls next door started giving him warm, soapy baths, and the villagers brought him delicious leftovers. His intelligence and fame increased along with his girth. He was featured in USA Today and on several National Public Radio environmental programs. On election day, some voters even wrote in Christopher’s name on their ballots.

But as this enchanting book describes, Christopher Hogwood’s influence extended far beyond celebrity; for he was, as a friend said, a great big Buddha master. Sy reveals what she and others learned from this generous soul who just so happened to be a pig–lessons about self-acceptance, the meaning of family, the value of community, and the pleasures of the sweet green Earth. The Good Good Pig provides proof that with love, almost anything is possible.

• 小巨人

  作者：波波 发布时间：2016-12-20 12:19:10

  很多企业都想快速成长，努力做大。但多大才够呢？作者一开始就抛出这样的问题，在人们传统的观念里，成功的企业就是要不断地扩张规模，获取高额的利润收益。但总会有一些企业反其道而行之，它们成功克服无休止增长的压力，转而追求一些在他们看来更重要的商业目标。

  「小巨人」就是一本专门讲述小而美企业如何生存、发展、延续、创新的书，每个章节里面都有很多作者在美国搜集符合「小巨人」理念的企业故事，这些企业的特征都很明显，希望给员工营造舒适的工作环境，希望为顾客提供优质的服务，希望同供应商建立良好的关系，希望为自己工作生活的社区作出更大的贡献。

  于我个人而言的理念也是特别推崇这样的「小巨人」的企业，虽然小，但是力量足够强大。文章中作者聊到「亲密度文化」围绕员工、顾客、供应商甚至企业所在的社区，都要建立良好的亲密关系，正是这样的一种亲密度文化让像「小巨人」这样的企业具备持续发展下去的核心竞争力，关心彼此；关心顾客；关心社区；关心供应商；关心投资人和利润。

  在如何建立亲密度文化的时候作者提出三点：

  ① 企业和员工必须有一个明确的目标，始终提醒员工自己的工作和企业的发展息息相关，告诉员工为什么在工作的时候全力以赴。

  ② 出其不意的方式提醒员工：企业非常在乎他们。(这里包含绩效奖金、特殊福利、弹性工作制、节日派对等方法让这种被需要、被赏识的信息传到员工中间去)。

  ③ 大众掌权。主要指的是让员工之间真诚的对待彼此之间的感情，互相信任，愿意患难与共，让他们以自己的工作为傲，能够拥有把工作做好的使命感。

  在如何提供更好的服务和产品作者提出三点：

  ① 清楚的了解顾客的需求。

  ② 为顾客提供真诚的产品和服务。

  ③ 超越客户的期望。

  另外，「小巨人」企业能够变得与众不同的东西，提供伟大的产品和服务以及与顾客和供应商亲密的融洽关系，这一切的前提都是企业员工扮演着重要的角色，员工和企业之间的关系是「小巨人」企业所受关注的企业魅力的基础。

  正因为这本书也让我开始理解身边的很多小企业，它们没有做的多大，但是它们做了很多年，我一直在想这些小企业是如何活下去的，事实上这样「小巨人」的企业在中国非常多，它们不为人所知，利润可观，发展良好，我想对于这些「小巨人」企业而言如同作者开篇所言"上市不是我们的目标，投资收益刚刚好就好，我们不但不做"巨无霸"，还要刻意保持小规模，我们虽小，却有伟大的灵魂"。

• 收藏与历史

  作者：沧海一声笑 发布时间：2013-12-19 20:21:19

         买这本书还是去年在潘家园逛地摊的时候，地上那么多书，我一眼就看见这本了，而且还没开封。拿起来一掂量，是正版（别笑，书的重量有时是能看出正版盗版的），也不用还价了，早已是我心理可承受之价位，直接8元买下。然后搁在书架上几乎一年没动。

         为何没动，因为瓷器这个收藏门类，知识性太强，怕一时学不过来。现在渐渐关注到了瓷器，就拿出这本书翻翻。

         老马行文的语气和百家讲坛上说话的语气是一样的。这本书节奏不紧不慢，知识性还是不错的。老马深知收藏与历史知识之间的紧密联系，所以无论是五大名窑，还是元明清的瓷器，拿起哪个研究一下都是费时费力的慢功夫，写起来自然不可能短短小文即全面展开面面俱到。但是马在文中反复提及着历史的变化与工艺制作、艺术创作的联系。这一点是收藏者不可不重视的重大环节。鉴定需要历史文化底蕴，审美亦如是，收藏判断亦如是。抓住这点，便是收藏家的思维上道了。虽然老马行文语气平淡，真知也在其中，琢磨透了也算读书一场。

         此书脉络清晰，分类介绍瓷器种类，如青瓷，白瓷，彩瓷。再而写写收藏心得，接下来按历史朝代分唐宋元明清民国的瓷器。读者按着这个思路了解起来自然提纲携领，对瓷器知识有了初步的了解。同时看老马分析其它事物的观点与角度，亦可一窥作者眼界之宽，眼光之远，涉及面之大。

         书印刷精良，纸张轻盈，精美图片不少。研究这行，知识和实物并重，没见过实物不敢谈收藏，没知识不敢谈收藏。

         细细品来，这本书的性价比还是很高的。
