Women in Chinese Martial Arts Films of the New Millennium
Women and Gender in Chinese Martial Arts Films of the New Millennium, by Ya-chen Chen, is an excavation of underexposed gender issues focusing mainly on contradictory and troubled feminism in the film narratives. In the cinematic world of martial arts films, one can easily find representations of women of Ancient China released from the constraints of patriarchal social order to revel in a dreamlike space of their own. They can develop themselves, protect themselves, and even defeat or conquer men. This world not only frees women from the convention of foot-binding, but it also "unbinds" them in terms of education, critical thinking, talent, ambition, opportunities to socialize with differen...

Control of Nonlinear Systems
The book Control of Nonlinear Systems–Stability and Performance fills a crucial gap in the field of nonlinear control systems by providing a comprehensive yet accessible treatment of the subject. Unlike many existing texts that are either too complex for beginners or omit essential topics, this book strikes the right balance of mathematical rigor and practicality. The main objective of the book is to simplify and unify the existing techniques for designing and analyzing control systems for nonlinear systems. It aims to alleviate confusion and difficulty in understanding these methods, making it an invaluable resource for students, researchers, and practitioners in the field. By presenting ...
Cardiometabolic diseases and inflammatory responses
Cardiometabolic diseases are driven by both metabolic disorders (obesity, insulin resistance, non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases, and atherosclerosis) and chronic inflammation (e.g. in diabetes, hypertension and autoimmune diseases), leading to coronary artery disease and heart failure. The perivascular or pericardiac adipose tissue expansion affecting both the systemic and tissue compartment is favored in cardiometabolic disease development. This adipose tissue is a major component of the cardiovascular system that is dysregulated during the consumption of fat-enriched diets. Additionally, fat-enriched diets profoundly impact the response of immune cells in specialized tissues, as well as the activation and differentiation of tissue-resident progenitors. This results in both dysfunction and remodeling that is not limited to tissues, but also to cell activity. The fate of cardiovascular diseases associated with metabolic disorders promotes the imbalance in pro- and anti-inflammatory environments.
Nanomaterials in Industrial Chemistry
This book provides a comprehensive exploration of nanomaterials, offering insights into their diverse morphologies and applications. Chapters delve into the industrial potential of nanocellulose-based aerogels, the future of light-driven and UV-photodetector materials, and the use of functionalized nanomaterials for wastewater restoration. It explores the pivotal role of nanobiotechnology in water purification and introduces nanopharmaceuticals as a promising frontier in clinical medicine. The book addresses safety concerns related to occupational exposure to nanomaterials, highlighting hazards and toxicity. Additionally, it discusses the environmental effects of nanotechnology innovation. This multifaceted approach caters to professionals, researchers, and enthusiasts navigating the evolving landscape of nanomaterials.
Lake Taihu, China
2 In China, there are more than 2,759 lakes with surface area greater than 1km , and 2 the total lake area is 91,019km . One-third of these lakes are freshwater lakes, and the majority are situated in the middle and lower reaches of the Changjiang River or in eastern China’s coastal areas. These lakes function as drinking water supplies, ood control systems, aquaculture and tourism resources, navigation channels, etc. Recently, many shallow lakes in China have been subject to rapid eutrophication and suffer from algal blooms. This issue has resulted in a shortage of drinking water and in degradation of their ecosystems. The control of eutrophication of shallow lakes is one of the main issu...

Recent Advancements in Gene Expression and Enabling Technologies in Crop Plants
In this book, authors who are experts in their fields describe current advances on commercial crops and key enabling technologies that will underpin future advances in biotechnology. They discuss state of the art discoveries as well as future challenges. Tremendous progress has been made in introducing novel genes and traits into plant genomes since the first creation of transgenic plants thirty years ago, and the first commercialization of genetically modified maize in 1996. Consequently, cultivation of biotech crops with useful traits has increased more than 100-fold from 1.7 million hectares in 1996 to over 175 million hectares globally in 2013. This achievement has been made possible by ...
