The Painting Master's Shame
Overturning the long-held assumption that the Xuanhe Catalogue of Paintings was the work of the Northern Song emperor Huizong (r. 1100–1126), Amy McNair argues that it was compiled instead under the direction of Liang Shicheng. Liang, a high-ranking eunuch official who sought to raise his social status from that of despised menial to educated elite, had privileged access to the emperor and palace. McNair’s study, based on her translation and extensive analysis of the text of the Xuanhe Catalogue of Paintings, offers a definitive argument for the authorship of this major landmark in Chinese painting criticism and clarifies why and how it was compiled. The Painting Master’s Shame describ...
The Political History in Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasty
The book is the volume of “The Political History in Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasty ” among a series of books of “Deep into China Histories”. The earliest known written records of the history of China date from as early as 1250 BC, from the Shang dynasty (c. 1600–1046 BC) and the Bamboo Annals (296 BC) describe a Xia dynasty (c. 2070–1600 BC) before the Shang, but no writing is known from the period The Shang ruled in the Yellow River valley, which is commonly held to be the cradle of Chinese civilization. However, Neolithic civilizations originated at various cultural centers along both the Yellow River and Yangtze River. These Yellow River and Yangtze civilizations aros...

Cleaner Combustion and Sustainable World
Cleaner Combustion and Sustainable World is the proceedings of the 7th International Symposium on Coal Combustion which has a significant international influence. It concerns basic research on coal combustion and clean utilization, techniques and equipments of pulverized coal combustion, techniques and equipments of fluidized bed combustion, basic research and techniques of emission control, basic research and application techniques of carbon capture and storage (CCS), etc. Professor Haiying Qi and Bo Zhao both work at the Tsinghua University, China
Metalloenzymes
Metalloenzymes: From Bench to Bedside offers a thorough overview of metalloenzymes, spanning biochemical and structural features, pharmacology, and biotechnological applications. After a brief overview, international experts in the field discuss a wide range of magnesium, calcium, zinc, manganese, nickel, iron, copper, cadmium, molybdenum, and tungsten enzymes, along with catalytic roles within their active sites. With a uniform approach throughout, each chapter includes the structure and function of the enzyme, physiologic and pathologic roles, inhibitors and activators of the enzyme (and their design), and clinical agents or compounds applied in medicine and drug discovery. This book enables scientists across academia and industry to adopt ongoing metalloenzyme research, and continuous discovery of novel metalloenzymes, in new life science studies and clinical applications. - Examines a range of metalloenzymes, from biochemistry to pharmacology and drug design - Each chapter examines enzyme structure and function, physiologic and pathologic roles, inhibitors and activators, and clinical application - Features chapter contributions from international experts in the field
Relations Related to Betweenness: Their Structure and Automorphisms
This volume is about tree-like structures, namely semilinear ordering, general betweenness relations, C-relations and D-relations. It contains a systematic study of betweenness and introduces C- and D- relations to describe the behaviour of points at infinity (leaves or ends or directions of trees). The focus is on structure theorems and on automorphism groups, with applications to the theory of infinite permutation groups.
Decision Problems for Equational Theories of Relation Algebras
"We prove that any variety of relation algebras which contains an algebra with infinitely many elements below the identity, or which contains the full group relation algebra on some infinite group (or on arbitrarily large finite groups), must have an undecidable equational theory. Then we construct an embedding of the lattice of all subsets of the natural numbers into the lattice of varieties of relation algebras such that the variety correlated with a set [italic capital]X of natural numbers has a decidable equational theory if and only if [italic capital]X is a decidable (i.e., recursive) set. Finally, we construct an example of an infinite, finitely generated, simple, representable relation algebra that has a decidable equational theory.'' -- Abstract.
