Programming ArcObjects with VBA
ArcGIS users can streamline workflow, increase functionality, and improve efficiency by learning to program ArcObjects, the development platform for ArcGIS. Programming ArcObjects with VBA: A Task-Oriented Approach directly relates what you already know about ArcGIS to programming, making it easier to sort out objects, properties, and methods in code. This volume, which adopts Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) for programming, first analyzes Geodatabase, the organization of ArcObjects, and ArcOjects help sources. It then reviews programming basics including the writing of code, calling subs and functions, Visual Basic Editor, code debugging, and user interface customization. The book discu...
Terrigenous Mass Movements
Terrestrial mass movements (i.e. cliff collapses, soil creeps, mudflows, landslides etc.) are severe forms of natural disasters mostly occurring in mountainous terrain, which is subjected to specific geological, geomorphological and climatological conditions, as well as to human activities. It is a challenging task to accurately define the position, type and activity of mass movements for the purpose of creating inventory records and potential vulnerability maps. Remote sensing techniques, in combination with Geographic Information System tools, allow state-of-the-art investigation of the degree of potential mass movements and modeling surface processes for hazard and risk mapping. Similarly...

How to Read the Chinese Novel
Fiction criticism has a long and influential history in pre-modern China, where critics would read and reread certain novels with a concentration and fervor far exceeding that which most Western critics give to individual works. This volume, a source book for the study of traditional Chinese fiction criticism from the late sixteenth to the early twentieth centuries, presents translations of writings taken from the commentary editions of six of the most important novels of pre-modern China. These translations consist mainly of tu-fa, or "how-to-read" essays, which demonstrate sensitivity and depth of analysis both in the treatment of general problems concerning the reading of any work of fict...
The Zen Canon
Bodhidharma, its first patriarch, reputedly said that Zen Buddhism represents "a special transmission outside the teaching/Without reliance on words and letters." This saying, along with the often perplexing use of language (and silence) by Zen masters, gave rise to the notion that Zen is a "lived religion," based strictly on non-linguistic practice and lacking a substantial canon of sacred texts. Even those who recognize the importance of Zen texts commonly limit their focus to a few select texts without recognizing the wide variety of Zen literature. This collection of previously unpublished essays argues that Zen actually has a rich and varied literary heritage. Among the most significant...
