Bell,Daniel (1919— ) Bell is an American sociologist best known for his presiction that CLASS CONFLICT was nearing an end with the END OF IDEOLOGY and the emergence of the POSTINDUSRIAL and INFORMATION SOCIETIES organized primarily around technology and informationg.He later retreated somewhat from this postion with the observation of a funcdamental conflict among the values of economic efficiency,individual rights and wellbeing,and the hedonistic lifestyle promoted by advanced capitalist societies.
Major works include The end of ideology (1960);The coming of postindustrial society(1973);and The cultural contradictions of capitalism (1976)。
Bendix,Reinhard (1916— ) A German-born immigrant to the United States,Bendix is known for his interpretation of the work of Max WEBER and for his work in comparative and HISTORICAL SOCIOLOGY,especially in relation to industrial society and its ties to the working class.
Major works include Work and authority in industry (1956);Social mobility in industrial society (1959);Max Weber;An intellectual portrait (1960);and Nation building and citizenship (1964)。
Benedict,Ruth (1887—1948) Trained first in English literature and only later in life as an anthropologist,Benedict made major contributions to the study of the relationship between personality and culture.Her basic insight was that each culture promotes the development of some human potentialsd to the neglect of other,and that people shape themselves in ways that tend to fit their cultural context.Culture is,in Benedict's words,“personality writ large,”and societiescan be seen as integrated wholes of cultural forms and human beings.An accomplished field observer,rigorous researcher,and lucid writer,Benedict combined the humanities and the scientific study of culture in often powerful ways and left a significant legacy for the study of culture and perosnality.
Major works include Patterns of culture (1934);Zuni mythology,2 vols.(1935);and The chrysanthemum and the sword:Patterns of Japanese culture (1946)。See also Margaret Mead,An anthropologist at work:Writings of Ruth Benedict (1959)。
Bernard,Jessie (1903— ) Bernard is an American sociologist best known for her work on marriage,the family,the status of women,communities,social problems,and public policy.It was she,for example,who first explored the phenomenon of “his”and“hers”marriages,recognizing that marriage has distinct advantagesfor men that are not shared by women.Especially during and following the 1970s.Bernard created a rich body of work detailing the nature of women's lives in contexts ranging from the family to higher education.Bernard is also known for her expertise on the history of sociology as a discipline and as a cofounder of the Society for the Study of Social Problems.
Major words include Academic women (1946);Women and the public interest (1971);The future of marriage (1972);The sociology of community (1973);The future of motherhood (1974);The female world in a global perspective (1987);and The origins of American sociology,with L.L.Bernard (1943)。See also Women in sociology,edited by Mary Jo Deegan (1991)。
Bernstein,Basil (1924— )。Bernstein is a British sociologist specializing in education,SOCIOLINGUSITICS,and the relation between language,knowledge and schooling on the one hand and SOCIAL CLASS and SOCIAL CONTROL on the other.In his theory of SPEECH CODES,Bernstein argues that social calss faects how students learn language in family and school environments,and this,in turn,affects their achievement potential and social class possibilities.His interest in language extends to a general interest in how class systems are maintained through control over knowledge and the language needed to access and use it in complex and creative ways.
Major works include Class,codes,and control,3 vols.(1971,1973,1975)。

又说咱们中国道家讲阴阳,这开篇是借男女讲阴阳之气。阴阳之气相游相交,初不可太盛,太盛则折,折就是“折断”的“折”……“太盛则折;太弱则泻。”老头儿说我的毛病又太盛。又说,若对手盛;则以柔化之。可要在化的同时,造成克势,柔不是弱,是容,是收,是含。含而化之,让对手入你的势。这势要你造,需要无为而无不为。无为即是道,也就是棋运之大可不变,你想变,就不是象棋,输不用说了,连棋边儿都沾不上。棋运不可悖,但每局的势要自己造,棋运和势即有,那可就无所不为了。玄是真玄,可细琢磨,是那么个理儿。

One wet night I was coming home through Hyde Park from working late on a job in Paddington.Pain and wind and swept boughs and sickly gasights on the wet asphalt;and poles nad scaffolding about in preparation for the Jubilee celebration.I had sent a couple of attempts on the subject to the Bulletin,and had got encouragement in Answer to Correspondents.And now the idea of“Sons of the South”or“Song of the Republic”came.I wrote it and screwed up courage to go down to the Bulletin after hours,intending to chop the thing into the letter box,but just as I was about to do so,or rather making up my mind as to whether I'd shove it in,or take it home and have another look at the spelling and the dictionary,the door opened suddenly and a haggard woman stood there. And I shoved the thing into her hand and got away round the corner,feeling something like a person who had been nearly caught on the premises under suspicious circumstances and was not safe yet by any means.
I hadn't the courage to go near the Bulletin often again,but used to lie awake at night and get up very early and ship down to the nearest news-agent's on Thursday mornings,to have a pep at the Bulletin,in fear and trembling and half furtively, as if the news-agent-another hard-life woman,by the way,named Mrs Furlong—would guess my secret.At last,sick with disappointment,I ment to the office and saw Mr Archibird,who seemed surprised,encouraged me a lot and told me that they were holding the “Song of a Republic”over for a special occasion—Eight Hours Day.
