Bio-Inspired Computing and Applications
The three-volume set LNCS 6838, LNAI 6839, and LNBI 6840 constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Intelligent Computing, ICIC 2011, held in Zhengzhou, China, in August 2011. This volume contains 93 revised full papers, from a total of 281 presentations at the conference - carefully reviewed and selected from 832 initial submissions. The papers address all issues in Advanced Intelligent Computing, especially Methodologies and Applications, including theories, methodologies, and applications in science and technology. They include a range of techniques such as artificial intelligence, pattern recognition, evolutionary computing, informatics theories and applications, computational neuroscience and bioscience, soft computing, human computer interface issues, etc.
Teaching and Learning Chinese as a Foreign or Second Language: The Educational Psychology Perspective
Over the past two decades, Chinese as a foreign or second language (CFL/CSL) has been increasingly taught and learnt as an important language both within and outside China. Studies in the field have attempted to address deep-seated tensions between existing educational ideologies, concepts, strategies, and approaches and student learning process and performance, and between existent teaching methods and techniques and the globalization of Chinese language education.
The Perils of Interpreting
A fascinating history of China’s relations with the West—told through the lives of two eighteenth-century translators The 1793 British embassy to China, which led to Lord George Macartney’s fraught encounter with the Qianlong emperor, has often been viewed as a clash of cultures fueled by the East’s lack of interest in the West. In The Perils of Interpreting, Henrietta Harrison presents a more nuanced picture, ingeniously shifting the historical lens to focus on Macartney’s two interpreters at that meeting—Li Zibiao and George Thomas Staunton. Who were these two men? How did they intervene in the exchanges that they mediated? And what did these exchanges mean for them? From Galwa...

China's Emerging Middle Class
The rapid emergence and explosive growth of China's middle class have enormous consequences for that nation's domestic future, for the global economy, and for the whole world. In China's Emerging Middle Class, noted scholar Cheng Li and a team of experts focus on the sociopolitical ramifications of the birth and growth of the Chinese middle class over the past two decades. The contributors, from diverse disciplines and different regions, examine the development and evolution of China's middle class from a variety of analytical perspectives. What is its educational and occupational makeup? Are its members united by a common identity—by a shared political vision and worldview? How does the C...
