Bureaucracy and the State in Early China
This ook redefines the bureaucracy of Ancient Chinese society during the Western Zhou period. The analysis is based on inscriptions of royal edicts from the period carved into bronze vessels. The inscriptions clarify the political and social construction of the Western Zhou and the ways in which it exercised its authority.
Joined in Mind and Body
Several centuries into the future, humans have allied with Kathari, a race of feline aliens, for mutual protection. Andrew Foster was a crack computer technician recruited to work on the powerful Artificial Intelligence system of the Karenthis, flagship of the Kathterran military fleet. The chance to see a huge, centaur-like Kathari cinched the deal. The psionic felines were the mainstay of any Kathterran vessel. Andrew planned to get the work done and be home by the following afternoon. He didn't expect to remain on the ship when it was deployed to a war zone. He definitely didn't anticipate discovering his true soul mate on the trip.
The Nivison Annals
In his last essay just weeks before his death at the age of 91, David S. Nivison says, "Breaking into a formal system - such as a chronology - must be like breaking into a code. If you are successful, success will show right off." Since the late 1970's Nivison has focused his scholarship on breaking the code of Three Dynasties (Xia, Shang, Zhou) chronology by establishing an innovative methodology based on mourning periods, astronomical phenomenon, and numerical manipulations derived from them. Nivison is most readily known in the field for revising (and then revising again) the date of the Zhou conquest of Shang, and for his theory that Western Zhou kings employed two calendars (His so-call...

Nouns and Verbs in Chinese I
As the first volume of a two-volume set that re-examines nouns and verbs in Chinese, this book proposes the verbs-as-nouns theory, corroborated by discussions of the nature and relationship between nouns and verbs in Chinese. Seeking to break free from the shackles of Western linguistic paradigms largely based on Indo-European languages and to a great extent inappropriate for Chinese, this two-volume study revisits the nature of nouns and verbs and relevant linguistic categories in Chinese to unravel the different relationships between nouns and verbs in Chinese, English, and other languages. It argues that Chinese nouns and verbs are related inclusively rather than in the oppositional patte...
