Biostratigraphy of China
Distributed by Elsevier Science on behalf of Science Press. Biostratigraphic data are basic to geological and palaeontological research. This book presents up-to-date material and research achievements in biostratigraphy in recent decades in China, and provides a variety of knowledge to lay a solid foundation for geologists and palaeontologists worldwide. It consists of 13 chapters covering 13 major geological systems. Every chapter addresses tectonic sedimentary domains, current biostratigraphic systems, series boundaries, faunal/floral succession, evolutionary trends and bioevents, correlation of the standard columns in China with other part of the world, facies patterns, palaeobiogeography and palaeogeography. * Up-to-date and authoritative data basic to geologic research about China and all Asia * Concepts, procedures and classification follow modern international standards updated to the present * Written by leading Chinese geologists and palaeontologists
Flora of China, Volume 18
The diversity of plant species in China is extraordinary. With an area approximately that of the continental United States, China has nearly twice as many vascular plant species, about 30,000 or one-eighth of the world's total. The Flora of China describes and otherwise documents these species. The text volumes include descriptions, identification keys, essential synonymy, phenology, provincial distribution in China, brief statements on extra-Chinese distribution, comments regarding the circumscription of problematic taxa, and additional comments on the ethnobotanical uses and conservation status of certain plants.
Neural Information Processing
The nine-volume set constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 30th International Conference on Neural Information Processing, ICONIP 2023, held in Changsha, China, in November 2023. The 1274 papers presented in the proceedings set were carefully reviewed and selected from 652 submissions. The ICONIP conference aims to provide a leading international forum for researchers, scientists, and industry professionals who are working in neuroscience, neural networks, deep learning, and related fields to share their new ideas, progress, and achievements.
Bone metastasis in the milieu of Osteoimmunology
Bone metastases are common in many cancers and associated with skeletal-related events such as spinal cord compression, fractures, pain, disability, and impaired quality of life. Bone metastasis is most prominent in breast, prostate, and lung cancer patients and is the leading cause of cancer-associated death. Osteoblasts and osteoclasts control each other’s functions to maintain normal bone homeostasis. In addition, bone remodeling is governed by the balanced activity of the bone and immune cells. Bone metastasis is a multistage process, and the bone microenvironment influences the seeding and colonization of the disseminated cancer cells. Disruption of bone homeostasis and immune population provides fertile soil to facilitate cancer cell seeding. Despite the advancement of our understanding to treat primary tumors, most of the treatments for bone metastasis are palliative. Proper understanding of the immune component of the bone and their involvement in bone metastasis niche formation will help to explore future directions of bone metastasis research.
Intelligent Computing Methodologies
This two-volume set of LNCS 12463 and LNCS 12464 constitutes - in conjunction with the volume LNAI 12465 - the refereed proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Intelligent Computing, ICIC 2020, held in Bari, Italy, in October 2020. The 162 full papers of the three proceedings volumes were carefully reviewed and selected from 457 submissions. The ICIC theme unifies the picture of contemporary intelligent computing techniques as an integral concept that highlights the trends in advanced computational intelligence and bridges theoretical research with applications. The theme for this conference is “Advanced Intelligent Computing Methodologies and Applications.” Papers related to this theme are especially solicited, addressing theories, methodologies, and applications in science and technology.
Records of Later Liang Dynasty 后梁纪
Zi Zhi Tong Jian (Chinese: 资治通鉴;English: "Comprehensive Mirror in Aid of Governance") is a pioneering reference work in Chinese historiography, published in 1084 in the form of a chronicle. In 1065 AD, Emperor Yingzong of Songordered the great historian Sima Guang (1019–1086 AD) to lead with other scholars such as his chief assistants Liu Shu, Liu Ban and Fan Zuyu, the compilation of a universal history of China. The task took 19 years to be completed,and, in 1084 AD, it was presented to his successor Emperor Shenzong of Song. The Zi Zhi Tong Jian records Chinese history from 403 BC to 959 AD, covering 16 dynasties and spanning across almost 1,400 years,and contains 294 volumes (...
The Emperor of the Primordial World
A bastard son of a marquis who had become a slave had encountered a girl that claimed to be a blood robed emperor ... From this moment onwards, he had been tasked with the task of opening the heavens and becoming the ruler of the empire.
The Forger's Creed
The first in-depth look at the history and legacies of forgeries in Chinese art. In 1634, scholar-official Zhang Taijie (b. ca. 1588) published a book titled A Record of Treasured Paintings (C. Baohui lu), presenting an extensive catalogue of a purportedly vast painting collection he claimed to have built. However, the entire book is Zhang's meticulously crafted forgery; he even forged paintings to match the documentation, and profited from trading them. Furthermore, the book intriguingly mirrors unfounded art-historical claims of its time. Prominent figures like Dong Qichang (1555-1636) made entirely fabricated arguments to assert legitimate lineages in Chinese art, designed to create a fic...
