After I posted on my leave plans on Sunday, a few of you asked what was on my reading list, so I am sharing some books I have read / am reading / or hope to read. Three of the books are available from the National Library Singapore. Do check out the NLB app (iOS: https://go.gov.sg/moiqhc | Android: https://go.gov.sg/hu17bc). It is a marvellous resource, and you will definitely be able to discover many books to suit your interests.
[ Nuclear Folly, a History of the Cuban Missile Crisis
by Serhii Plokhy ]
The Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962 brought the world to the brink of nuclear war. I had read "13 Days", the short memoir by Robert Kennedy about it as a teenager, and later Graham Allison's "Essence of Decision", a seminal study using the Crisis to analyse decision making from different perspectives. Both were mainly based on US records. Plokhy's book draws on Soviet archives, to present events from both the US and Soviet points of view. Many mistakes were made on both sides. The saving grace was that both President John Kennedy and General Secretary Nikita Khrushchev desperately wanted to avoid a nuclear war. But even then the two sides avoided a nuclear exchange only by a hair’s breadth, and only by chance, because events once set in motion were no longer entirely within the two leaders' control. A gripping read.
[ The Bilingual Brain, and what it tells us about the science of language
by Albert Costa ]
Having learnt several languages myself, and grappled with our bilingualism policy in schools, this book was a natural choice. I am still reading it. Did you know that a newborn infant already recognises and prefers the language (or languages) which their mother spoke while they were in her womb, and within hours of birth can also distinguish between two different languages that they have never heard before? Infants pick up a language (or two) naturally in their first years, but learning a second or third language later in life is much harder. This book explains why.
[ Capturing Light, the Heart of Photography
by Michael Freeman ]
A book about the different sorts of light, how they influence the photo you take, and how to use them to create the effect and mood that you want. Photographers know about the golden hour and blue hour, hard light and soft light, direct and indirect lighting, front and back lighting, haze, mist and fog, and so many more variations. The book includes lots of the author’s photos illustrating his points, taken over many years. Hope to pick up something from reading it. But the key in photography (as in so many other skills) is to practise and practise, if you want to improve.
[ Bettering Humanomics, A New, and Old, Approach to Economic Science
by Deidre Nansen McCloskey ]
The author, a distinguished economist, argues that economics is not just about incentives and institutions, mathematical models and observed behaviour. It should take a broader, more humanistic approach, paying attention to ethics and values, “what people believe, and the stories they tell one another”, as one reviewer put it. Certainly in government we must think about these broader factors all the time, while making sure we get the economics right. Not just in trade and industry or finance, but also in national development, education, health, manpower, sustainability and the environment, social and family development, and so much of public policy. I haven't read this book yet, but saw an enthusiastic book review, and look forward to reading the book itself.
Happy reading! – LHL

photography skills 在 Owen Yap ( 叶剑锋 ) Facebook 八卦
“我珍惜每个来到我生命中的朋友,因为我不晓得缘分何时了。不管我们之间的故事有多少,感谢你留下的微笑。即使疏离了,仍然希望你一切安好。”
火焰已熄,但温暖犹在心底。时间不断推移,世界依然美丽——因为回忆。
One day the flames may fade, but the warmth will remain.

MINI ALBUM 'MOON' OUT ON 6.21
全新迷你專輯 【月】6.21 全球數位發行
https://DianaWang.lnk.to/Moon
MOON, Diana’s second album under Fu Music, enchants the listener with a moody and romantic ode to love. Diana’s delivery can be powerful yet delicate, with influences ranging from alternative R&B, classic soul to retro pop.
Her songwriting skills really shine in her elusive and soulful melodic choices in the song “Intertwined”, a first of its kind in Chinese language music.

融合深邃迷離的 Alternative R&B 與復古風格。創作女聲 Diana 王詩安以大膽多樣的創新曲風,搭配成熟、慵懶的迷人嗓音交織出曲曲彼此含意相連,以「月」為主題、因月而生的概念專輯 。如果上一張專輯《詩》是白天的話,《月》則像是充滿神祕迷幻氛圍的黑夜。
【脈絡】
人與人相遇的背後都有看不見的脈絡牽引,唯有用心聆聽才能感受脈絡讓愛的時態進行
你是否曾對一場因邂逅而認識的戀情感到傾心,又或者感嘆著人與人之間有著難以形容的緣份牽引?緣份是如此奇妙,R&B創作女聲王詩安以充滿都會感與慵懶的歌聲,在〈脈絡〉中唱出在看似疏離與飄泊無垠的日常生活中,背後可是有千絲萬縷、無形無影的線聯繫著我們彼此。
〈脈絡〉一曲有著迷離的氛圍,王詩安透過情感深邃的歌聲,搭配著曲中彷彿心跳悸動般的電子節奏,告訴著聆聽者人與人之間之所以交集相遇與相戀多少帶有宿命,背後有命運的巧手,有著看不見的脈絡。雖然說緣份和生命中的似曾相識在冥冥之中早已註定,但王詩安的這首歌告訴你,愛是一種感應,要用心聽才能真正感受出隱藏在背後,讓我們彼此牽引,彼此頻率一致的脈絡。
脈絡 Intertwined

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tập 3 của Love Is Blind đem đến những cuộc đối thoại cởi mở về định kiến gia đình và xã hội đối vấn đề giới tính của con cái. Đã đến lúc chúng ta học cách yêu bản thân mình hơn và cách tiếp nhận lời khen một cách tích cực. Không phán xét, so sánh và ‘dán nhãn’ người khác, nhất là trong chính cộng đồng LGBTQ+.
Những câu hỏi của chương trình hy vọng mở ra những góc nhìn rất đỗi bình thường trong cuộc sống nhưng ít ai dám thẳng thắn đối mặt. Chúng mình hy vọng bạn sẽ có thật nhiều ý kiến để đóng góp vào phần comment dưới đây cho Love Is Blind về bất kì điều gì nhé.
Câu quote mà Dustin yêu thích nhất thuộc về chị Tô Nhi A: “Mấy anh chị, khoan đi, bây giờ con mình nó là con trai hay con gái, tính sau. Hãy để nó là con người cái đã.”
