辛迪加连环漫画家 John McPherson 的 200 多幅漫画，展现了我们对国家未来最重要基石之一——教师——的感激，有时也带着些许无奈。从小学校园到大学学府，从钢琴老师到体育教练，这本书都是送给我们最喜爱的导师们一份既幽默又温馨的礼物。

就像那种把 DailyWtf 的投稿翻来覆去浓缩重组，变成面目全非的“本来就是这样”的说教寓言，读起来就像《心灵鸡汤》的编辑硬要给 InfoWorld 写马尔科姆·格拉德威尔风格的文章。
The one where DailyWtf submissions are always boiled down and reconstituted into unrecognizable just-so parables that read like the editors of Chicken Soup for the Soul tried to write Malcolm Gladwell articles for InfoWorld.
你倒让我想起 90 年代《心灵鸡汤》那套书了，当时都是以励志书和格式化日记的形式出的。卖得巨火。不知道这 IP 现在还在不在了。
You just reminded me of the Chicken Soup for the Soul series from the 90s that came in the form of self help books and structured diaries. They sold tons. Not sure if the franchise is still around.
……主要是看会员的兴趣，而不是商业价值。我宁愿按月付订阅费，去一个环境很棒的空间里呆着，满屋子都是（对我来说！）很有趣的书，而不是《心灵鸡汤》和当下最流行的网红减肥法这类玩意儿。我想，大概算是个实体书店版的 HN 吧。
…interest to the membership rather than commercial value. I'd pay a monthly fee to be able to go hang out in a nice space full of books that are selected to be interesting (to me!) rather than stuff like "Chicken Soup for the Soul" and the latest fad diet. Sort of a bookstore version of HN, I suppose.
这篇文章和这本书完全体现了个人财务教育的弊端所在。理财领域根本没有什么独门智慧、聪明巧思或金科玉律。《心灵鸡汤》屁用没有。个人理财就应该当成一道数学题来教。算清楚你想要的生活方式需要多少开销，然后反向推导。如果你那豪宅、好车和下馆子每年要花 10 万美元……
This article and the book is exactly what's wrong with personal finance education. There is no special wisdom, clever tricks or golden rules in finance. Chicken soup for the soul won't help. Personal finance should be taught as a math problem. Figure out the cost of the lifestyle you want, and work backwards from there. If your fancy house, car, and dinners out cost $100,000…
……才几百本而已。）在图书的商业逻辑里，大钱都在虚构类小说（《五十度灰》、《哈利·波特》等）。其次，部分非虚构类也能赚不少钱（《心灵鸡汤》、《美食、祈祷和恋爱》等）。而在生态链的最底层，则是计算机书籍这类专业出版物。那个层面的经济规律基本注定了你只能像牛马一样写着《Java 傻瓜书》，赚的钱还不如……
…is only in the hundreds.) In the economics of books, the big money is fiction. (50 Shades, Harry Potter, etc). To a lesser extent, you have some non-fiction titles making a decent amount of money (Chicken Soup for the Soul, Eat Pray Love, etc). Way down on the totem pole are the trade publications like computer books. The economics on that level basically dictate that you slave away writing "Java for Dummies" for less…
