'공부머리'가 타고난 것처럼 보이는 아이들이 있다. 매일 피땀 흘리며 공부해도 늘 제자리걸음인 나와는 달리 그 아이들은 갑자기 기적 같은 상승을 보이고, 불가능해 보이던 목표를 이뤄낸다. 내가 하는 공부와 특별히 다르지 않은 것 같은데, 왜 그들의 성적은 빠르게 올라가는 걸까? 수학 점수 27점, 왕따까지 당하면서 극심한 우울증에 시달리다 단기간에 엄청난 성적 상승을 이루고 서울대에 입학한 저자는 자신과 같은 '성적 역전왕'들에게서 몇 가지 공통점을 발견했다. 이들의 비법은 바로 '압축적인 공부'였다. 열심히만 하는 공부를 그만두고 공부 방향을 틀자 눈에 띄는 변화가 일어난 것이다.

Ce livre audio est le résultat d'une étude qui porte sur le contenu du cœur masculin et qui a été initiée à partir de la question "Comment et pourquoi, moi, en tant que mâle, je cache mes émotions ?" L'auteur s'ouvre à vous avec complicité, d'une façon profonde, chaleureuse et humaine. L'émotion est au cœur de la souffrance de l'homme, car elle y reste prisonnière, ce qui le laisse avec le sentiment culpabilisant d'être insensible, avec une souffrance de solitude et un manque d'identité.

Linguistic structuralism studies the meaning of language based not just on definitions, but also on the relationships of words and sounds to each other. Lévi-Strauss's insight was to see that this concept of structuralism in linguistics could be applied to anthropology as well. He saw that while some cultures are very different from others, they all seem to have certain internal structural relationships in common. By tracing these structures across cultures, he tried to answer nothing less than the eternal question: "What is man?"
