About this title

Synopsis

二十世紀的中國,從腐敗的滿清政府開始,辛亥革命,中華民國建國,隨即軍閥割據,抗日戰爭,國共內戰。外侵內患而造成國家社會的大動亂,幾乎佔了整個世紀。

我的父母和姐弟五人,就是生長在那個國家多難,社會不安的時代。後來除了姐姐和她的家人之外,很幸運的,我們逃脫了中國大陸,在上個世紀中期史無前例的政治迫害,及社會不安的浩劫。但是我們的父母也被迫地,離開了中國大陸,連根拔起,流亡海外。當時我們所渴望的,是在安定的環境中成長。而我們父母畢生追求,而沒法達成的奢望,竟是簡單的家人團聚! 我的父母就是懷著『有家歸不得』,和『家人無法團聚』的雙重思念和感受,飲恨終生。於一九七○年代先後在台北和在美國謝世的。

我們姐弟,因為年齡的差別,我們一生的經歷就迥然不同。在時代潮流的巨浪中,各人走出一條生路,努力地奮鬥了一生。這本書『漂萍』是記述一個很平凡的中國家庭的真實故事。就是因為平凡,我們家的故事,是在報章雜誌中,和歷史書上找不到的。可是我們這些升斗市民的親身經歷的故事,是可以充分反映出當時的時代背景。足以值得記下來,留給在海外生長的後代子孫。

盧業裴,祖籍湖北省天門市,國立台灣大學機械工程學系畢業,獲有美國德克薩斯州,州立休士頓大學,機械工程碩士和博士學位。畢業後,任職於美國泰勒研究中心,畢生從事於高科技研發工作,曾任工程師,科學家,和科技管理人員,直到一九九五年退休。在工作年間,先後任教於美國馬里蘭州立大學,美國海軍官校,美國天主教大學,國立台灣大學,和國立台灣海洋大學。一九九五年,合著有高科技『結構的振動阻尼』(Vibration Damping of Structural Elements)一書(英文版),二○一二年,著有自傳體的回憶錄『漂泊的浮萍』(Drifting Roots)一冊(英文版)。在大學期間,曾任國立台灣大學籃球校隊隊長,也是當年頗具盛名的『籃聲』籃球隊的隊員。現居美國馬里蘭州。

The revocation period is fourteen days from the day,

on which you or a third party named by you, who is not the carrier, has taken possession of the last goods, provided that you have ordered several goods within the framework of a single order and these are delivered separately;

You can use the attached model withdrawal form, but this is not mandatory.

To comply with the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification of the exercise of the right of revocation before the expiry of the revocation period.

Consequences of revocation

If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse you all payments that we have received from you, including delivery costs (with the exception of the additional costs resulting from the fact that you have chosen a different type of delivery than the cheapest standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within fourteen days from the day on which we received the notification of your revocation of this contract.
For this repayment, we will use the same means of payment that you used for the original transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; in no case will you be charged any fees for this repayment.

We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back or until you have provided proof that you have returned the goods, whichever is the earlier.

You must return or hand over the goods to us immediately and in any case at the latest within fourteen days from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is met if you send the goods before the expiry of the period of fourteen days.

You bear the direct costs of returning the goods.

You only have to pay for any loss of value of the goods if this loss of value is due to handling of the goods that is not necessary to check the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

Reasons for exclusion or extinction

The right of revocation does not apply to contracts

for the delivery of goods which are not prefabricated and for the manufacture of which an individual choice or determination by the consumer is decisive or which are clearly tailored to the personal needs of the consumer;
for the delivery of goods that can spoil quickly or whose expiry date would be exceeded quickly;
for the delivery of alcoholic beverages, the price of which was agreed at the time of conclusion of the contract, but which can be delivered at the earliest 30 days after conclusion of the contract and whose current value depends on fluctuations in the market over which the entrepreneur has no influence;
for the delivery of newspapers, magazines or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts.

The right of revocation expires prematurely in the case of contracts

for the delivery of sealed goods that are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene, if their seal has been removed after delivery;
