(Auntie Ping Bilingual Thinking Series 萍阿姨雙語思維系列)","description":"The Dismantling the Appendix Trilogy is a groundbreaking three-volume manifesto that confronts the dead weight of outdated systems and reimagines how society can truly serve people.\nPing Xu—Taiwan-born pianist, social reform advocate, and author of twelve policy books—uses the metaphor of the appendix to expose how institutions have become useless, painful, and even dangerous when left unchecked. With clarity and urgency, she dismantles myths about the economy, government, and democracy, and lays out a blueprint for systems that actually work.\nAcross the trilogy, Xu tackles:\nUniversal Basic Income as a lifeline for dignity and freedom.\nEducation reform to cultivate creativity instead of obedience.\nHousing justice to end generational traps of inequality.\nLong-term care and healthcare redesigned with compassion and speed.\nTrust in democracy rebuilt through direct, living systems.\nThis is not abstract theory. It is a fierce call to replace broken structures with living institutions that deliver resources directly, heal communities, and restore trust.\nFor readers who care about justice, freedom, and the future of humanity, Dismantling the Appendix Trilogy offers both a diagnosis and a cure.\n《拆掉盲腸三部曲》是一套劃時代的宣言，直面那些拖垮社會的「死制度」，並提出如何讓體制真正服務於人民的全新設計。\n徐萍——台灣出生、後移居美國波士頓的鋼琴家與社會改革倡議者，已出版十二本政策改革專書——以「盲腸」為隱喻，揭示體制如何淪為無用、帶來痛苦，甚至在失控時危及生命。她以清晰而急切的語氣，拆解經濟、政府、民主的迷思，並提出一套活的制度藍圖。\n在三部曲中，她聚焦於：\n全民基本收入：維護尊嚴與自由的生命線。\n教育改革：培養創造力而非服從。\n住房正義：打破代際不平等的陷阱。\n長照與醫療：以同理心與效率重建支持系統。\n民主信任：以活制度重新贏回人民的信賴。\n這不是抽象理論，而是要用行動取代空談。徐萍呼籲拆掉那些早已腐敗的框架，建立能夠直達資源、治癒社區、恢復信任的活制度。\n對所有關心正義、自由與人類未來的讀者而言，《拆掉盲腸三部曲》既是診斷書，也是解方。\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0FNM7JSP5\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.B0FNM7JSP5.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Xu, Ping\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book has little sign of wear or use  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Blue Vase Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43338087923773,"sku":"BVV.B0FNM7JSP5.VG","price":16.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/dismantling-the-appendix-trilogy-show-how-distrust-corrodes-democracy-and-why-rebuilding-trust-is-foundational-auntie-ping-bilingual-thinking-series-%e8%90%8d%e9%98%bf%e5%a7%a8%e9%9b%99%e8%aa%9e%e6%80%9d%e7%b6%ad%e7%b3%bb%e5%88%97","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
