The House of Yan
Through the sweeping cultural and historical transformations of China, entrepreneur Lan Yan traces her family’s history through early 20th Century to present day. The history of the Yan family is inseparable from the history of China over the last century.

On the seventh day of marriage, Ji Yan was still locked up in the basement. She was forcibly sent to Shang family by her parents to replace her sister and marry the monster man, Shang Jinshen, who is rumored to be unable to walk. During these seven days, only one hot man comes to the basement every day to see her and provoke her. That time, she decides to fight back and bites the man, but she pays the price by having her first time taken away by the hot man. Finally, after ten days of captivity, she was released. When the Madam of the Shang family humiliates her for her poverty, her so-called husband shows up to defend her. She saw Shang Jinshen sitting in a wheelchair with many scars on his face. But what she doesn't know is that this image of weakness is a pretence by Shang Jinshen. The man who took away her virginity is the real Shang Jinshen.

Taoist Ritual and Popular Cults of Southeast China
Most commentators imagine contemporary China to be monolithic, atheistic, and materialist, and wholly divorced from its earlier customs, but Kenneth Dean combines evidence from historical texts and extensive fieldwork to reveal an entirely different picture. Since 1979, when the Chinese government relaxed some of its most stringent controls on religion, villagers in the isolated areas of Southeast China have maintained an "underground" effort to restore traditional rituals and local cults. Originally published in 1993. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Assessment as Learning
Based on a solid theoretical basis of assessment-as-learning and updated empirical evidences, this timely book significantly expands the existing scope of assessment-as-learning typically developed in Western contexts. This edited volume updates theoretical and empirical advances in assessment-as-learning in complex learning processes, brought together by an international panel of authors. The contributors provide a wide range of practical ways to harness the power of assessment-as-learning to make it work more effectively not only in the classroom, but also across other achievement-related situations (e.g. examinations, learning processes before and after classes). Assessment as Learning provides a deep contemporary insight into the field of formative assessment, and brings much-needed international perspectives to complement the current Western-focused research. This is a valuable contribution to the discussion, and provides useful insight for researchers in Education.
CEO’s Substitute Ex-wife
When she married five years ago, she knew that her husband was still thinking about his first love. He pinched her chin and said, "You're just a substitute. Other than money, don't even dream about getting anything else." She had thought that as long as she tried to be good to him, he would eventually be moved and fall in love with her. Later on, she realized that it was impossible for a man to fall in love with someone just because he was moved. Five years after their marriage, his first love came back. He wanted a divorce and wanted her to have an abortion. ***
