Transforming the Mind: The Sutra of the Eight Realizations of Great Beings
'The world is impermanent; the earth is perilously fragile.' ~ The Sutra of the Eight Realizations of Great Beings As unenlightened beings, we are easily pulled this way and that by our conditions. In our state of confusion, we unwittingly pursue fame, fortune, desire, and pleasure. How many of us truly take time to contemplate the meaning of our lives? The Sutra of the Eight Realizations of Great Beings contains the fundamental practices allowing us to make the most of our potential as human beings. In her explanation of the text, Dharma Master Cheng Yen uses stories from the Buddha's time and our days to relate these teachings to modern life. In this way, she lays out a path for how to grow in compassion and wisdom by going among people to help those in suffering.
Harmonic Analysis in China
Harmonic Analysis in China is a collection of surveys and research papers written by distinguished Chinese mathematicians from within the People's Republic of China and expatriates. The book covers topics in analytic function spaces of several complex variables, integral transforms, harmonic analysis on classical Lie groups and manifolds, LP- estimates of the Cauchy-Riemann equations and wavelet transforms. The reader will also be able to trace the great influence of the late Professor Loo-keng Hua's ideas and methods on research into harmonic analysis on classical domains and the theory of functions of several complex variables. Western scientists will thus become acquainted with the unique features and future trends of harmonic analysis in China. Audience: Analysts, as well as engineers and physicists who use harmonic analysis.
Singular Integrals and Related Topics
This book introduces some important progress in the theory of Calderon-Zygmund singular integrals, oscillatory singular integrals, and Littlewood-Paley theory over the last decade. It includes some important research results by the authors and their cooperators, such as singular integrals with rough kernels on Block spaces and Hardy spaces, the criterion on boundedness of oscillatory singular integrals, and boundedness of the rough Marcinkiewicz integrals. These results have frequently been cited in many published papers.
Reviving Ancient Chinese Mathematics
Twentieth-century China has been caught between a desire to increase its wealth and power in line with other advanced nations, which, by implication, means copying their institutions, practices and values, whilst simultaneously seeking to preserve China’s independence and historically formed identity. Over time, Chinese philosophers, writers, artists and politicians have all sought to reconcile these goals and this book shows how this search for a Chinese way penetrated even the most central, least contested area of modernity: science. Reviving Ancient Chinese Mathematics is a study of the life of one of modern China’s most admired scientific figures, the mathematician Wu Wen-Tsun. Negot...

Master of Love and Mercy: Cheng Yen
'When you are determined to do something, now is as good a time as any.' 'Human beings, by nature, tend to take things for granted and think that they would last forever. But life is short and all things are impermanent, so we must treasure the moments where there is peace and when we are with our loved ones.' This book is written by Chinese American author Yu-ing Ching through interviews with Master Cheng Yen, the master's monastic disciples and her foster mother, as well as Tzu Chi's staff, volunteers, and aid recipients. The author engages readers with her thoughtful and intricate writing style, enabling the latter to gain an understanding of Master Cheng Yen's life from childhood to youn...
Cheng Tzu's Thirteen Treatises on T'ai Chi Ch'uan
Millions of people worldwide practice t’ai chi, the most popular form of which was codified beginning in the 1960s by Cheng Man Ch’ing. In this scholarly yet practical book, Professor Cheng shows precisely how the postures and moves of t’ai chi work, with examples from anatomy and physics, both internally as energetic principles and externally on opponents. He clarifies the spheres, triangles, and centripetal and centrifugal forces within physical exchanges such as push-hands. Contrasting Western and Chinese techniques of healing, he also explores the relationships of organs to one another in pathology and the necessary dynamics of treatment. Professor Cheng explains how the practition...
