“This book is classic Perry -- elegantly and clearly written, based on rich and previously unexplored source material, full of human detail on political actors at the local level, presenting a gripping narrative and a clear analytical thrust. Perry’s account of Anyuan is fresh and original, making a convincing case for the area’s enduring contribution to the revolution.” - Joseph W. Esherick, UC San Diego, author of Ancestral Leaves
Through the medium of women's bodies, Fan Hong explores the significance of religious beliefs, cultural codes and political dogmas for gender relations, gender concepts and the human body in an Asian setting.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Computing and Combinatorics, COCOON 2013, held in Hangzhou, China, in June 2013.

She was a descendant of an ancient martial arts family from the modern era. Her skills were outstanding and her heart was ruthless and cold. Once he transmigrated and became the eldest daughter of the General's House, he would be bullied for his superior status. As a person who had experienced rebirth, how could he allow others to crush him? Those who had offended her before would all be forced to repay her debt in a single stroke. He was the crown prince who was high and mighty. He was dark and cunning, but he had only taken her seriously. The palace door was like the ocean, he wanted to share thousands of miles of mountains and rivers with her ...
C N Yang is a towering figure of science who has significantly extended human understanding of nature, headed one of the foremost research institutes in physics for three decades, and made great contributions to the advances of Chinese physics. This Festschrift in honor of Professor Yang on his centenary birthday consists of two volumes: Volume A consists of general essays concerning Professor Yang the person, as well as the authors' impressions and reminiscences of him, which are mainly (but not exclusively) in Chinese. This volume, that is Volume B, consists of over thirty scientific papers in English on subjects broadly related to his work and contributed by two different groups: Professo...
This book honors the remarkable science and life of Shoucheng Zhang, a condensed matter theorist known for his work on topological insulators, the quantum Hall effect, spintronics, superconductivity, and other fields. It contains the contributions displayed at the Shoucheng Zhang Memorial Workshop held on May 2-4, 2019 at Stanford University.
Xu Mingwei was her name in this life. As the direct daughter of a noble family, her life was decided from the moment she was born. Growing up in the family, he married a man who was on the same side of the family. He made him his first wife, gave him children, and took care of his concubines in the backyard. For Xu Mingwei, who was educated under her legal wife, these were all things she could do easily. If one were to look back and see that she and Fu Heng had been married for five years, they would see that she had a pair of adorable children and a roomful of cuticles. From the beginning, she had never wished for such things like feelings. Unexpectedly, her husband suddenly asked her about this. If she didn't have it, how could she give it to him?
This book examines information and public opinion control by the authoritarian state in response to popular access to information and upgraded political communication channels among the citizens in contemporary China. Empowered by mass media, particularly social media and other information technology, Chinese citizen’s access to information has been expanded. Publicly focusing events and opinions have served as catalysts to shape the agenda for policy making and law making, narrow down the set of policy options, and change the pace of policy implementation. Yet, the authoritarian state remains in tight control of media, including social media, to deny the free flow of information and shape public opinion through a centralized institutional framework for propaganda and information technologies. The evolving process of media control and public opinion manipulation has constrained citizen’s political participation and strengthened Chinese authoritarianism in the information age. The chapters originally published as articles in the Journal of Contemporary China.
