The Dream of a Red Dragon
Alby Leung teaches English at the China-Australia Management Training Institute in Shanghai, a goodwill project designed in Canberra, blessed in Beijing. Due to a misreading of his sketchy military credentials, he also acts as the project’s informal security chief. Unaware of his limitations, his boss instructs him to save an old friend’s husband, a dubious character entangled in a local business wrangle. This lands the ill-equipped Alby in a treacherous world of double-dealing merchants, bent officials, murderous gangsters and hostile police, a scene overshadowed by the heated rivalry of Australia’s old ally, America, and her new best friend, China ... a most unsettling climate for expat team-members deep in the Red Dragon’s den.
Capitol Hill's Criminal Underground
Perhaps one of the most thorough explorations of government corruption ever put in writing, this nonfiction account investigates the theft of trillions of U.S. dollars—money laundered in countries that are hostile to the United States. The ratings agencies, the banks, and our politicians are funding anti-American activity against their own people—and they couldn’t care less. The FBI refuses to investigate, the U.S. Attorneys refuse to prosecute, and the Securities and Exchange Commission refuses to protect the public. With enough evidence to investigate and prosecute over one thousand high-ranking government employees, bankers, and politicians, Capitol Hill’s Criminal Underground will show that the level of arrogance and contempt our political leaders hold for the American people is boundless.
Cortical Mechanisms of Vision
The advent of sensors capable of localizing portions of the brain involved in specific computations has provided significant insights into normal visual information processing and specific neurological conditions. Aided by devices such as fMRI, researchers are now able to construct highly detailed models of how the brain processes specific patterns of visual information. This book brings together some of the strongest thinkers in this field, to explore cortical visual information processing and its underlying mechanisms. It is an excellent resource for vision researchers with both biological and computational backgrounds, and is an essential guide for graduate students just starting out in the field.
Eye Movements and Visual Cognition

From the outset, we sought papers that provide concise and astute reviews of topics within this broad fi...
