These seven essays on the structure of Chinese society are based on articles contributed by Fei to Chinese newspapers in 1947 and 1948. Six case histories from a study of the gentry by Yung-teh Chow are appended. "The chief interest and charm of this book lie in the fact that it is not directed to the Western reader; these were studies written in Chinese, by an erudite Chinese, for a Chinese public. . . . Mrs. Redfield is to be complimented for her own careful research in preparing this translation for a non-Chinese public."—Robert F. Spencer, American Anthropologist
Currently, the assessment of functional immunological relevance is mainly done in animal models. Motivation to work on non-animal methods, or new approach methods (NAM), stems from economical and ethical considerations, and is supported by public pressure. Importantly, the translational gap between results obtained in animal studies and clinical trials in humans (the ‘valley of death’), combined with the reproducibility crisis in science, also provide strong scientific arguments to work on novel, robust, human-based methodology. The field of immunology confronts NAM scientists with specific challenges. Firstly, immunological responses require several cell types in different locations for...

The Navy of the 21st Century, 2001– 2022 presents an all- inclusive listing of the ships that have served in the US Navy since the start of the new century. The newest and sixth volume of the US Navy Warship Series provides insight into the technological innovations and modern weaponry featured in newer naval vessels, as well as controversies over the naming conventions of ships over past decades. The text contains specifications and illustrations for all the ships and submarines that have helped the US maintain the world’s largest and most powerful navy to the present day. Many new developments have occurred during this period, and several new types of ships have emerged. The book includes latest developments such as the unmanned seagoing drones, as well as those now under construction or projected. Ships of other government departments, such as the Coast Guard, NOAA, and the Army, that would be used in conjunction with the Navy, are also highlighted. This is an essential reference volume for scholars and institutions specializing in American military history, policy, and strategy.
The two volume set LNCS 5263/5264 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Symposium on Neural Networks, ISNN 2008, held in Beijing, China in September 2008. The 192 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 522 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on computational neuroscience; cognitive science; mathematical modeling of neural systems; stability and nonlinear analysis; feedforward and fuzzy neural networks; probabilistic methods; supervised learning; unsupervised learning; support vector machine and kernel methods; hybrid optimisation algorithms; machine learning and data mining; intelligent control and robotics; pattern recognition; audio image processinc and computer vision; fault diagnosis; applications and implementations; applications of neural networks in electronic engineering; cellular neural networks and advanced control with neural networks; nature inspired methods of high-dimensional discrete data analysis; pattern recognition and information processing using neural networks.
