Assignment China
Reporting on China has long been one of the most challenging and crucial of journalistic assignments. Foreign correspondents have confronted war, revolution, isolation, internal upheaval, and onerous government restrictions as well as barriers of language, culture, and politics. Nonetheless, American media coverage of China has profoundly influenced U.S. government policy and shaped public opinion not only domestically but also, given the clout and reach of U.S. news organizations, around the world. This book tells the story of how American journalists have covered China—from the civil war of the 1940s through the COVID-19 pandemic—in their own words. Mike Chinoy assembles a remarkable c...
Complementary and Alternative Therapy for Pain Disorders: From Bench to Clinical Practice
Pain disorders pose significant challenges to global health and have a profound impact on the quality of life. It is estimated that approximately 20% of adults globally experience pain disorders, with 10% being newly diagnosed with chronic pain each year. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the main components of today’s first-line pain treatments, which largely combat inflammation and nociception. However, long-term consumption of these drugs often leads to various side effects and drug addiction. Therefore, it is crucial to investigate alternative pain management strategies with fewer adverse effects. Complementary and alternative therapy (CAT) as a viable option for pain control is becoming more widely acknowledged. CAT encompasses various modalities, including but not limited to transcutaneous electrical stimulation, herbal medicine, acupuncture, acupressure, Tuina, Gua Sha, moxibustion, Qigong, Tai Chi, acupoint catgut embedding, acupotomy, yoga, and meditation. Despite its growing acceptance, the effects and underlying scientific mechanisms of CAT for pain disorders remain incompletely understood, limiting its widespread use in clinical practice.

This Brave New World
"In the next decade and a half, China and India will become two of the world's indispensable powers--whether they rise peacefully or not. During that time, Asia will surpass the combined strength of North America and Europe in economic might, population size, and military spending. Both India and China will have vetoes over many international decisions, from climate change to global trade, human rights, and business standards. From her front row view of this colossal shift, first at the State Department and now as an advisor to American business leaders, Anja Manuel escorts the reader on an intimate tour of the corridors of power in Delhi and Beijing. Her encounters with political and busine...

Analysis and Activism is presented in six parts: Section One, Interventions, includes discussion of what working outside the consulting room means, and descriptions of work with displaced children in Colombia, projects for migrants in Italy and o...
