Environment, Energy and Sustainable Development
Environment, Energy and Sustainable Development brings together 242 peer-reviewed papers presented at the 2013 International Conference on Frontiers of Energy and Environment Engineering, held in Xiamen, China, November 28-29, 2013. The main objective of this proceedings set is to take the environment-energydevelopments discussion a step further. Volume 1 of the set is devoted to Energy, power and environmental engineering, and volume 2 to Control, information and applications. Environment, Energy and Sustainable Development is intended to serve as resource material for scientists working on related topics in many disciplines, including environmental science, management science, and energy science and policy analysis, as well as for industry professionals in the wide field of energy and environmental engineering.
Advances in Intelligent Information Hiding and Multimedia Signal Processing
The book presents selected papers from the 17th International Conference on Intelligent Information Hiding and Multimedia Signal Processing, in conjunction with the 14th International Conference on Frontiers of Information Technology, Applications and Tools, held on October 29 – 31, 2021, in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. It is divided into two volumes and discusses latest research outcomes in the field of information technology (IT) including but not limited to information hiding, multimedia signal processing, big data, data mining, bioinformatics, database, industrial and Internet of things, and their applications.
Visual and Material Cultures in Middle Period China
Eight studies examine key features of Chinese visual and material cultures, ranging from tomb design, metalware, ceramic pillows, and bronze mirrors, to printed illustrations, calligraphic rubbings, colophons, and paintings on Buddhist, landscape, and narrative themes. Questions addressed include how artists and artisans made their works, the ways both popular literature and market forces could shape ways of looking, and how practices and imagery spread across regions. The authors connect visual materials to funeral and religious practices, drama, poetry, literati life, travel, and trade, showing ways visual images and practices reflected, adapted to, and reproduced the culture and society around them. Readers will gain a stronger appreciation of the richness of the visual and material cultures of Middle Period China.
Environmental Science and Technology: Sustainable Development
This book features a collection of high-quality and peer-reviewed papers from 2022 13th International Conference on Environmental Science and Technology, which was held in Shandong, China, during October 21–23, 2022. ICEST is held annually as a platform for presentation of new advances and research results in the fields of Environmental Science and Technology. This year, we focus on the theme: Environmental Protection and Sustainable Development. With the continuous development of human society, environmental problems are becoming more and more serious. How to realize the rational use of resources, realize the sustainable development of ecological environment, and protect the environment on which human beings live has become an urgent problem to be solved. Based on the conference theme this year, the presentations include the topical areas of environmental sustainability, environmental restoration, waste minimization, solid waste management, water pollution control, water treatment and reclamation, air pollution control, carbon capture and storage and environmental monitoring, etc.
Demon city / Magic city
When the Japanese writer Muramatsu Shōfu visited Shanghai in the spring of 1923 he found a city of stark contrasts. There was the glamour and modernity of its nightclubs and European architecture, the vice and sedition of its brothels and gambling dens. He named his bestselling travelogue “魔都” (Mato), Japanese for “Demon City”. In Chinese, “魔都” translates as “Magic City”, which remains a popular nickname for the metropolis to this day. Muramatsu wrote with humour and pathos about his time in Shanghai, his drinking sessions with poets and prostitutes, his trips to the racetrack and the amusement parks, and his turbulent relationship with a Japanese dance instructor who he shared a room with in the house of a Russian émigré. He would return to China many times and become a respected authority on the country. Alexis J Brown is a translator living in London. (Note on the text - Original work published in 1924 by Konishi Shoten, digital copy available here: https://dl.ndl.go.jp/en/pid/972136/1/1 at the National Diet Library Digital Collections.
