The handover in 1997 saw Hong Kong's transition from colonial to communist rule under the auspices of 'one country, two systems'. But twenty years on, the real impact of the sovereignty change is just starting to register, with a rapid erosion of freedoms. Believing that we are stronger together, PEN Hong Kong invited some of the city's most prominent writers to contribute to an anthology of essays, fiction and artwork that marks this historical milestone.

Power of the Pen: Volume 2 of 3 By: Lewis Adam Wallace Jr. Christ being taken down, beaten, and hung on the hill of Mount Calvary is still the best story told ever in the world. It's backed up with 16 years of research in many Christian books. But, with so many resources to draw from, sometimes it's hard to get all the facts and keep all the information straight.

Arguing for life, moral and values education as a bedrock for the original goals of school education, this monograph explores how life and values education is conceptualised and imparted in Greater China. Under a globalized, transnational, and technological world, where there has been an increase in people’s mobility, in information and cultural exchanges, there is also a growing emphasis on personal and professional ethics.
