我最近一直在读一本叫《如何在大学脱颖而出》的书，作者是凭借 Study Hacks 出名的卡尔·纽波特。全书被拆解成了一系列实用技巧，旨在最终引导读者成为更成功的大学生。书中的其中一个技巧……
I’ve been reading a book called “How To Win At College” by Cal Newport of Study Hacks fame. The book is broken up into a series of tips and tricks that are meant to ultimately lead one to greater success as a university student. One of the tips in the book…
I remember reading his "How to win at College" when finishing graduate school; his first book made me feel smug because I was already doing all his recommendations. I feel extremely blessed, as I have held a series of "dream jobs": 1) video game…
There are lots of respected academics in computer science. Apparently he chose to spend his time writing 3 versions of the same book for money: How to Win at College (2005), How to Become a Straight-A Student (2006), and How to Be a High-School Superstar (2010). And he's by definition peddling. Not sure why you took offense to that and not sure where the "free" economy…
对于任何准备上大学的人，我强烈推荐他的那本书《如何在大学脱颖而出》（How to Win at College）。
For anyone entering college, I highly recommend his book, How to Win at College.
……或者实习。所以如果我是你，我会排除所有有危险信号（red flags）的选项，在剩下的里面选最便宜的，然后拼命努力榨取尽可能多的价值（可以先读读卡尔·纽波特的《如何在大学脱颖而出》）。

……高大上的东西，一份暑期工就行。如果全都招满了，那或许可以更多考虑回家，在那边找工作运气说不定更好。2. 要不先从这本开始？http://calnewport.com/books/how-to-win-at-college/ 3. 只有一个人能想明白这件事。这也是我建议找一份不相关工作的部分原因。有时候弄清自己不想做什么，和弄清想做什么一样有用。4. 是不是有某种……

我记得读他的《如何在大学脱颖而出》时我刚好研究生毕业；他的处女作让我颇有些自鸣得意，因为他推荐的那些做法我早就已经在践行了。我感到自己非常幸运，因为我做过一连串的“梦寐以求的工作”：1）电子游戏……

计算机科学界有大把受人尊敬的学者。他倒好，显然选择把时间花在为了圈钱把同一本书写成3个版本上：《如何在大学脱颖而出》（2005）、《如何成为全A生》（2006）和《如何成为高中风云人物》（2010）。按定义来说他这就是在倒卖鸡汤。搞不懂你为什么会觉得被冒犯了，也不懂这跟“免费”经济有什么……
