**Selected as one of the Financial Times Best Books of 2012** 'Shi Cheng is a sort of mind map of both modern China, and also of what it’s like to be human.' - Asian Books Blog To the West, China may appear an unstoppable economic unity, a single high-performing whole, but for the inhabitants of this vast, complex and contradictory nation, it is the cities that hold the secret to such economic success. From the affluent, Westernised Hong Kong to the ice-cold Harbin in the north, from the Islamic quarters of Xi’an to the manufacturing powerhouse of Guangzhou - China’s cities thrum with promise and aspiration, playing host to the myriad hopes, frustrations and tensions that define China ...
The 2nd International Conference on Bigdata Blockchain and Economy Management (ICBBEM 2023) was successfully held on 19-21 May 2023 in Hangzhou, China. The conference aims to present the latest research results in the areas related to Big Data, Blockchain and Economic Management, and provide an opportunity for experts and scholars from various fields to meet face-to-face, exchange new ideas and practical experiences, establish business or research relationships, and seek future international cooperation. This volume contains a collection of excellent papers from the conference, presented on topics such as computer software and computer applications, blockchain in data management, e-commerce and digital commerce, and linear regression analysis. We hope that these papers will serve as a reference for young scholars in their future research.

“Natural Gas Hydrates: Experimental Techniques and Their Applications” attempts to broadly integrate the most recent knowledge in the fields of hydrate experimental techniques in the laboratory. The book examines various experimental techniques in order to provide useful parameters for gas hydrate exploration and exploitation. It provides experimental techniques for gas hydrates, including the detection techniques, the thermo-physical properties, permeability and mechanical properties, geochemical abnormalities, stability and dissociation kinetics, exploitation conditions, as well as modern measurement technologies etc. This book will be of interest to experimental scientists who engage in gas hydrate experiments in the laboratory, and is also intended as a reference work for students concerned with gas hydrate research. Yuguang Ye is a distinguished professor of Experimental Geology at Qingdao Institute of Marine Geology, China Geological Survey, China. Professor Changling Liu works at the Qingdao Institute of Marine Geology, China Geological Survey, China.
The ICEBE conference held in Shijiazhuang is the seventh in a series of annual conferences on engineering and business education and ICIE is the 5th international conference that runs every two years on innovation and entrepreneurship. It is the fourth joint conference organised by the Robert-Schmidt-Institute (University Wismar), hosted by Shijiazhuang University of Economics and co- organized by La Consolacion College Manila. The theme of the conference is “Education Innovation and Economic Society Development” which describes the emphasis that is laid on always combining education with the need of the society, not only to consider one in isolation from the others. Therefore the primary target of the conference is to provide the delegates with cross-disciplinary interests related to the subjects above in engineering and business education.
Information systems are complex, including data collecting, storing, processing and delivering. The main components of information systems are computer hardware and software, telecommunications, databases and data warehouses, human resources, and procedures. With the development of information systems, the innovation technologies and their applications continuously appear, such as the Internet of Things (IOT), cloud computing, big data and smart cities. Information Systems and Computing Technology contains 23 technical papers from the International Conference on Information Systems and Computing Technology (ISCT 2013, Wuxi, China, 15-16 September 2013). The book reviews recent advances in information systems and computing technology.

In a world that is constantly evolving, our understanding of nutrition and its impact on human health has grown exponentially. Food, once merely a source of sustenance, is now recognized as a powerful tool for improving public health and well-being. Organized into four sections, Food Fortification: Trends and Technologies presents a comprehensive exploration of food fortification—from its historical roots to its modern applications. Part I introduces the concept of food fortification as a potential strategy for the control of micronutrient malnutrition and the role of micronutrients in human health, recommended dietary allowance, and source. It also details the deficiency, prevalence, popu...
