But for the most part, this isn’t what the business community does. I have yet to meet a chief executive who reads regularly. Many skip newspapers, and magazines are a stretch. They don’t have time, they say. It’s inefficient; they can get the information they need from those around them. At a pinch, they might pick up a business book before a long flight, in the hope that, like a cookbook, it will provide a foolproof recipe. Some are drawn to what I think of as “business car crash” books — the stories of Theranos, Purdue, or WeWork. But outside those narrow pools of interest, a vast ocean awaits, bountiful with simmering ideas, mental adventure and imaginative refreshment.
但在大多数情况下,商界人士并不这样做。我还从未见过一位经常阅读的首席执行官。许多人不看报纸,杂志对他们来说也很勉强。他们说自己没有时间。阅读效率太低;他们可以从身边的人那里获得所需的信息。实在不得已时,他们可能会在长途飞行前拿起一本商业书籍,希望它能像食谱一样提供万无一失的秘诀。有些人被我所说的“商业车祸”类书籍所吸引——比如Theranos、普渡或WeWork的故事。但在这些狭小的兴趣池之外,一片浩瀚的海洋正等待着你,那里满是酝酿中的思想、心灵的冒险和想象力的焕新。

The Eisenhower Executive Office Building (EEOB) commands a unique position in both the national history and the architectural heritage of the United States. Designed by Supervising Architect of the Treasury, Alfred B. Mullett, it was built from 1871 to 1888 to house the growing staffs of the State, War, and Navy Departments, and is considered one of the best examples of French Second Empire architecture in the country.
艾森豪威尔行政办公大楼(EEOB)在美国的国家历史和建筑遗产中都占据着独特的地位。它由财政部监督建筑师阿尔弗雷德·B·马利特设计,于1871年至1888年间建造,用以容纳国务院、陆军部和海军部日益增多的工作人员,被认为是美国法国第二帝国风格建筑的最佳范例之一。
The history of the EEOB began long before its foundations were laid. The first executive offices were constructed between 1799 and 1820. A series of fires (including those set by the British in 1814) and overcrowded conditions led to the construction of the existing Treasury Building. In 1866, the construction of the North Wing of the Treasury Building necessitated the demolition of the State Department building.
艾森豪威尔行政办公大楼的历史早在其奠基之前很久就开始了。最早的行政办公楼建于1799年至1820年间。一系列火灾(包括1814年英国人纵的火)和过度拥挤的状况促成了现有财政部大楼的建造。1866年,财政部大楼北翼的建设使得国务院大楼不得不被拆除。
