Artificial Intelligence and Security
This two-volume set of LNCS 12736-12737 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Security, ICAIS 2021, which was held in Dublin, Ireland, in July 2021. The conference was formerly called “International Conference on Cloud Computing and Security” with the acronym ICCCS. The total of 93 full papers and 29 short papers presented in this two-volume proceedings was carefully reviewed and selected from 1013 submissions. Overall, a total of 224 full and 81 short papers were accepted for ICAIS 2021; the other accepted papers are presented in CCIS 1422-1424. The papers were organized in topical sections as follows: Part I: Artificial intelligence; and big data Part II: Big data; cloud computing and security; encryption and cybersecurity; information hiding; IoT security; and multimedia forensics
Application of Spectroscopy in Agricultural Environment and Livestock Breeding
Intelligent agriculture is the inevitable trend of future agriculture. As the brain of intelligent agriculture, advanced sensors determine the degree of agricultural environment and crop perception. However, an outstanding problem is the long-standing lack of effective sensing and monitoring tools in agriculture. Most information still relies on time-consuming and complex laboratory analysis and can only be off-line measured. Therefore, in-situ, on-line and sensitive methods for monitoring information about the agricultural environment and crops are urgently needed. With the development of material science, manufacturing technology and spectroscopy, more and more fast and high-precision spec...

The Social Life of Opium in China
In a remarkable and broad-ranging narrative, Yangwen Zheng's book explores the history of opium consumption in China from 1483 to the late twentieth century. The story begins in the mid-Ming dynasty, when opium was sent as a gift by vassal states and used as an aphrodisiac in court. Over time, the Chinese people from different classes and regions began to use it for recreational purposes, so beginning a complex culture of opium consumption. The book traces this transformation over a period of five hundred years, asking who introduced opium to China, how it spread across all sections of society, embraced by rich and poor alike as a culture and an institution. The book, which is accompanied by a fascinating collection of illustrations, will appeal to students and scholars of history, anthropology, sociology, political science, economics, and all those with an interest in China.

China’s Asymmetric Statecraft
China is not only a great power but often an opaque one. What does its regional diplomacy tell us about the country’s geopolitical position and ambitions, and what patterns does it reveal? Building from international relations theories focused on how external threats, domestic politics, and ideology influence foreign policy, Yuxing Huang puts forward a nuanced argument. He suggests that in an environment of numerous regional competitors and alignments, China has developed a form of asymmetric statecraft toward its many weaker neighbours. In the South China Sea, it maintains a uniform strategy toward Vietnam, the Philippines, and Malaysia. Whereas in South Asia, it practises selective strategies to maintain the status quo with India and to enhance Pakistan’s position. Drawing on extensive archival sources, this perceptive interpretation of the different narratives and paradigms that constitute China’s foreign policy alerts us to the potential future of its diplomatic endeavours in a dramatically changing international environment.
