The Magnitude of Ming
Few ideas in Chinese discourse are as ubiquitous as ming, variously understood as “command,” “allotted lifespan,” “fate,” or “life.” In the earliest days of Chinese writing, ming was already present, invoked in divinations and etched into ancient bronzes; it has continued to inscribe itself down to the twenty-first century in literature and film. This volume assembles twelve essays by some of the most eminent scholars currently working in Chinese studies to produce the first comprehensive study in English of ming’s broad web of meanings.

Global Learning at Small Institutions
This volume of essays offers models for diverse, effective approaches to providing a global learning curriculum and instruction to undergraduates in small institutions. Small colleges face unique challenges when integrating international curricula and global learning, including limitations in staff, financial resources, and administration. However, those challenges can often inspire creative solutions. The collection of essays features small liberal arts colleges and universities across the US where global learning programs are thriving. The essays provide guidelines, important considerations and practical steps to administrators, educators, and staff who are building or revising their global learning programs in higher education institutions.
Uneasy Dreams
There has been a tremendous amount of renewed interest in the output of Britain's Hammer Films. But there remain a great number of worthwhile British horror films, made at the same time by other companies, that have received little attention. The author provides a comprehensive listing of British horror films--including science fiction, fantasy, and suspense films containing horror-genre elements--that were released between 1956 and 1976, the "Golden Age" of British horror. Entries are listed alphabetically by original British title, from Vincent Price in The Abominable Dr. Phibes (1971) to Zeta One (1969). Entries also include American title, release information, a critique of the film, and the film's video availability. The book is filled with photographs and contains interviews with four key figures: Max J. Rosenberg, cofounder of Amicus Productions, one of the period's major studios; Louis M. Heyward, former writer, film executive and producer; Aida Young, film and television producer; and Gordon Hessler, director of such films as The Oblong Box and Murders in the Rue Morgue.
