A Man and His Horse
A Man and His Horse is the story of a young intellectual, Wen Bo, who is forced to flee Beijing during the Cultural Revolution. Exiled to a remote area of Inner Mongolia, he finds solace in a unique kind of love that he establishes with a feisty black horse. This autobiographical novel is based on the real-life experiences of a Beijing physician.
The Origin and Deduction of I Ching
The origin of the mythological version of I Ching put together by the culture pioneer Fu Xi, after studied the patterns of nature in the sky and on the earth: the markings on birds, rocks, and animals, the movement of clouds, the arrangement of the stars. He discovered that everything could be reduced to eight trigrams, each composed of three stacked solid or broken lines, reflecting the Yin and Yang, the duality that drives the universe. The trigrams themselves represented respectively, heaven and earth; thunder and wind; water and fire; mountain and lake (see illustration inside the book).In here, all the Yin-Yang bodies are opposite, complementary, symmetrical and balanced. There is an in...
The China Continental Scientific Drilling Project
This book comprehensively introduces the drilling theory and practice behind CCSD-1 well drilling, the first stage of a key national scientific engineering project of China. In addition to access to variety of data and information accumulated decade during the project’s decade-long operation, readers also gain insight into state-of-the-art techniques and most recent achievements in China’s scientific drilling industry. Specifically, this work introduces the drilling engineering design, well site construction, and equipment and construction situation. It also provides a minute description on the new techniques that were developed for tackling the technical difficulties, expounds in detail...
Emerging Advances in Petrophysics
Due to the influence of pore-throat size distribution, pore connectivity, and microscale fractures, the transport, distribution, and residual saturation of fluids in porous media are difficult to characterize. Petrophysical methods in natural porous media have attracted great attention in a variety of fields, especially in the oil and gas industry. A wide range of research studies have been conducted on the characterization of porous media covers and multiphase flow therein. Reliable approaches for characterizing microstructure and multiphase flow in porous media are crucial in many fields, including the characterization of residual water or oil in hydrocarbon reservoirs and the long-term st...
Biometric Recognition
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 16th Chinese Conference on Biometric Recognition, CCBR 2022, which took place in Beijing, China, in November 2022.

The papers cover a wide range of topics such as Fingerprint, Palmprint and Vein Recognition; Face Detection, Recognition and Tracking; Gesture and Action Recognition; Affective Computing and Human-Computer Interface; Speaker and Speech Recognition; Gait, Iris and Other Biometrics; Multi-modal Biometric Recognition and Fusion; Quality Evaluation and Enhancement of Biometric Signals; Animal Biometrics; Trustworthy, Privacy and Personal Data Security; Medical and Other Applications.
Producing Liquid Fuels from Coal
Large U.S. coal reserves and viable technology make promising a domestic industry producing liquid fuels from coal. Weighing benefits, costs, and environmental issues, a productive and robust U.S. strategy is to promote a limited amount of early commercial experience in coal-to-liquids production and to prepare the foundation for managing associated greenhouse-gas emissions, both in a way that reduces uncertainties and builds future capabilities.
