Surrealism in China initially gained a foothold in Shanghai’s former French concession during the early 1930s, disseminated by returning Chinese students who had directly encountered the movement in Paris and Tokyo. Shanghai surrealism adopted a dialectical form, resonating with the modus operandi of the Parisian movement as well as China’s traditional belief system of Daoism. Reconciling the thought of Freud and Marx, Surrealism subsumed the multiple contradictions that divided Republican Shanghai, East and West, colonial and cosmopolitan, ancient and modern, navigating the porous boundaries that separate dream and reality. Shanghai surrealists were not rigid followers of their Parisian counterparts. Indeed, they commingled Surrealist techniques with elements of traditional Chinese iconography. Rather than revolving around a centralized group with a leader, Shanghai Surrealism was a much more diffuse entity, disseminated across copious different periodicals, avant-garde groups, and th

Tea drinking has a history of five thousand years in the East. The quality of tea is generally graded through sensory evaluation. That is, professionally trained tasters rely on sight, smell, and taste to judge the quality of tea. Generally speaking, as long as you go through a series of rigorous training courses and cultivation, maintain good physical fitness and sensory sensitivity at all times, and be in a stable environment, you can drink the quality of tea. Tea sensory evaluation has long been an important method for evaluating the quality and grading of tea, and is widely recognized by the tea industry.

How did lay people in old China save their lives when dealing with acute or chronic health issues? Conventional medicine was costly and might not have been an option for many. Instead, people in villages and towns relied on remedies drawn from a woodblock-printed illustrated booklet called the Seventy-Two Therapies, first published in 1847. The goal of this book is to foster an appreciation of China’s long tradition of folk remedies. Each folk remedy is illustrated by a page from the circa 1860s woodblock edition of the Seventy-Two Therapies which the author used for translation. He also added a historical and interpretive analysis to expand on each therapy and to place it in the context of contemporary thinking, aiming at academics and readers interested in the everyday lives of common people in pre-1950 China, and in the folk medicine wisdom inherited from the past. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- “The 72 specific disease

協助讀者培養正確工程圖觀念之能力使讀者具備良好的工程製圖基礎 工業製圖主要係指工程圖（Engineering Graphics）的繪製，由於「圖」本身是沒有國界的差別的，特別是工程圖，所以有人說工程圖是一種世界語言（World Language）。也就是說在台灣所應用的工程圖，到了美國，到了德國，或是到非洲，基本上都是以相同原則、方式來表示的，不會因國界不同而有所不同。工程圖既然是工程上表達溝通的方式，自可說是工程應用上最必需具備的專業知識。人類歷史發展的趨勢，國家工業化程度愈高，代表國家愈進步，也就更需要實用的工程技術人才，以奠定工業發展的基礎。因此，工業製圖也是國家實力強弱的重要因素。本書的目標，在於協助讀者培養正確工程圖觀念之能力，熟悉國家標準工程製圖規範，並培養良好的製圖工作習慣，及具備繪圖、設計製圖之能力。雖然目前已進入電腦繪圖時代，但電腦本身並無法自行繪圖。在進行電腦繪圖之前，操作者必須先具備有上述的正確工程圖觀念、標準工程製圖規範、繪圖及設計製圖之能力等，才能應用電腦軟體，去從事工業製圖工作，這是讀者首先在觀念上要澄清的。如上所述，在進行工程製圖之前，必須要具備許多相關的專業知識。因此，一般學習工程製圖的過程，都是先學習專業知識及儀器畫，一邊藉由學習儀器畫過程，一邊同時將相關的專業知識融會貫通。等後來進入電腦繪圖環境時，便能輕易上手；況且在萬一沒有電腦可以使用的情況時，仍可輕易利用儀器畫以解決問題。本書編排即是本著上述原則，本書第一篇會著重專業知識及儀器畫，使讀者具備良好的工程製圖基礎。
