Through The Storm(Volume 1)
Mao Zedong once famously said, “Power grows from the barrel of a gun,” and a prime example is the People’s Liberation Army (PLA). With the founding of the People’s Republic of China, the PLA’s mandate extended beyond safeguarding national security to maintaining domestic order and keeping the Chinese Communist Party in power. In the 1960s and 1970s, the PLA was Mao’s chief instrument in preparing, launching and further developing the Cultural Revolution, but its role was complex and often opaque. Through the Storm meticulously traces the PLA’s role through archival research and interviews with retired cadres and officers to show that the military’s role in the Cultural Revolution has been historically understated, and that it eclipsed that of the more high-profile civilian Red Guards in both scale and duration. With its Chinese edition hailed in media and academia as an “exceptionally valuable” achievement, this book’s condensed English edition offers international readers a deeper understanding of the PLA’s role in launching and perpetuating the most sustained and violent campaign in modern Chinese history.

Rebirth: I Am the King of the Gods (BOOK #2)
This is the second book of the series of Rebirth: I Am the King of the Gods. Ji Wufeng was still a senior high school student who was only 18 years old. He was born in a super rich family and he was the only heir. His most reliable person was his cousin. However, his cousin was so malignantly ambitious that he wanted to get all Ji Wufeng's property. He hooked up with Ji's girlfriend and persuaded her to kill Ji Wufeng. At the moment he was dying, a soul was reborn in his body. It was the King of the Gods, who could control the world. "This time, it's my turn to make you guys suffer!"

Semantic Multimedia
This volume contains the full and short papers of SAMT 2009, the 4th Int- national Conference on Semantic and Digital Media Technologies 2009 held in Graz, Austria. SAMT brings together researchers dealing with a broad range of research topics related to semantic multimedia and a great diversity of application - eas. The current research shows that adding and using semantics of multimedia content is broadening its scope from search and retrieval to the complete media life cycle, from content creation to distribution and consumption, thus lever- ing new possibilities in creating, sharing and reusing multimedia content. While some of the contributions present improvements in automatic analysis...
