The current standard model of cosmology is based primarily on two incompatible theoretical models: (1) the standard model of particle physics, which describes the physics of the very small in terms of quantum mechanics, and (2) the general theory of relativity, which describes the physics of the very large in terms of classical physics. Both these theoretical models are considered to be incomplete in the sense that they do not provide any understanding of several empirical observations, such as the Big Bang, dark matter, dark energy, gravity, and matter-antimatter asymmetry in the universe. The main aim of this book is to discuss these serious problems that threaten to undermine the current standard model of cosmology.
Lewis sheds new light on the early Chinese empires through an ambitious examination of evolving ideas about honor and shame.
Letters from Home to Wuhan By: Compiled by Zhao Nianmin, Li Haiyan and Lan Chuanbin; Translated by Sun Hongshan Ever since the People’s Republic of China was founded in 1949, the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is the most serious public health emergency. Then the virus spread rapidly in this country, inspiring terror in people. To ward off a greater calamity, 1,775 doctors and nurses in 12 batches from Shandong went to the epidemic-stricken Hubei at the call of duty. Brave and professionally dedicated, they have completed their work with great success: None of them were infected, none of their patients died, and none of the cured cases turned positive again. At the front line the 1,775 medical workers are armored fighters, but at home they are also sons, daughters, wives, husbands or parents. With a quick change of role, they vent in letters their conflicting feelings of pride and horror, of joys and sorrows, and of affection for family and devotion to duty. So, for this spring, letter has been the most heartwarming, the most acute, the most candid, and the most delicate form to express feelings.
This proceedings volume gathers selected papers presented at the Chinese Materials Conference 2017 (CMC2017), held in Yinchuan City, Ningxia, China, on July 06-12, 2017.

The Chinese Materials Conference (CMC) is the most important serial conference of the Chinese Materials Research Society (C-MRS) and has been held each year since the early 1990s. The 2017 installment inc...
Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) dependent hypertension, diabetes featured by hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, hyperuricemia, hyperhomocysteinemia, overweight or obesity etc., represent the major types of endocrine and metabolic disorders which contribute most to the development of atherosclerosis-based cardiovascular diseases. In clinical studies, these diseases comprise nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal cerebral infarction, or even cardiovascular death, termed 3 major adverse cardiovascular events (3p MACE). On one side, these endocrine or metabolic dysfunctions are the upstream risk factors of cardiovascular diseases. Meanwhile, more and more antidiabetic drugs, e.g., gluc...
