The so-called "sweet wine is not afraid of deep Alley", said word of mouth.
I have always been a good believer. Everyone agrees that a good thing will surely shine. Of course, it may be useless to you, but it is not suitable for you.
So I select a book to read the word of mouth, and I need to learn to identify it. It is not suitable for me to see it.
For word of mouth, I usually read comments on the Internet. More often, I read dearbook book reviews. But I often feel disappointed.
There are several reasons for disappointment:
1. A large amount of e-book Information
2. a large amount of information is filled with criticism of the author's translation quality.
Ebook:
-- I have always recommended that you buy paper for classic books. I don't usually buy a classic book.
There are several reasons:
(1) The so-called classic, naturally, needs to be read repeatedly and constantly, and each time you read it, you will have a different feeling.
-- Reading e-books is hard-eyed and often hard to focus on. Second, it is hard to think deeply in front of a computer.
(2) paper books are easy to annotate. The so-called thick reading of books, reading books cannot be thick without adding their own views.
(3) the price of a classic book is far from the thickness and Printing Quality of the book. We have to keep our eyes on the long run and never lose in the dark.
E-books as a supplement to paper books certainly have some benefits. I am not opposed to e-books here.
You can use other methods to ask for e-books:
(1) An Online Bookstore provides a special column for you to exchange e-books.
-- Because I believe that many people read book reviews instead of viewing others' email addresses!
(2) In fact, there are a lot of classic e-books on www.infoxa.com!
-- Instead of asking someone to send it to you, why not take the initiative?
I hope that online bookstores can separate book reviews from other information to facilitate a large number of readers who want to view book reviews.
About Translation:
I don't agree with many people who say that if you are good at E, you should read the photocopies.
First of all, I dare not speak good English, but at least I can understand the photocopies of these technical books!
However, I still like the Chinese version. As a person who has been reading Chinese books for a long time, I believe most people have better understanding and understanding of Chinese than English!
Even if I read the English documents, I often translate key statements into Chinese and read them again and again.
Here, I think many times we would like to thank the translators because they have helped us with these tasks!
We won't talk about the translators of some bad books. Most of them lie in money. I am referring to the translators of Classical Books. Most of them have rich practical experience and are very serious about translating books.
For a book, the content is the highest. If the translation is not too bad, it will affect understanding. This is a secondary element.
Many people blame the translation for poor translation because they cannot understand it, because they always need excuses.
I am not here to justify the translator, but we should see the efforts of the translator. At the same time, if you think there is no domestic book to translate well, you should improve your English level rather than complaining here!
I would like to give some suggestions on this point, hoping to separate the opinions on translation and the opinions on publishing houses from the true book reviews.
I believe most people want to see real book reviews.
For a book, I always think that content is the key, and other details cannot be ignored, but we do not need to pay attention to it!
I feel depressed when I have been reading dearbook book reviews for a long time. I just want to say a few words. Thank you for your patience!
I hope the dearbook staff can read this article and consider the suggestions of our ordinary readers. After all, everyone wants to do better!
