Bookshops today contain a dazzling array of books covering finance, computers, lifestyle advice, contemporary thought, the humanities, fiction, and so on. These beautiful volumes can provide modern people with the practical knowledge they seek. They can also tell us what Taiwanese of the current generation care most about.
走進書店，發現滿坑滿谷、目不暇給的千百叢書中，大致也只幾個類型：財經、電腦、生活智慧、思想新知、文史、小說等等，精美印刷版本上拉大的字距與行距排列，讓我們更可一目十行，迅速滿足現代人顯然偏向實用類資訊的知性渴求，我們也可大抵看出這一代台灣人的興趣與關懷所在。
