Life On Us is a first-of-its-kind exploration of everything that lives ON and IN us, but is NOT us, from one of the world's greatest living explorers and scientists! Welcome to the fascinating world of Life On Us! Our bodies are home to tens of thousands of species that aren't at all human - on our skin, inside our gut and even in our brain, and they can have an extraordinary impact on how we feel, act and live.

Get ready to learn all about our amazing microbiome and the trouble-making germs and parasites you won't like to host. Scientist-extraordinaire Tim Flannery and his daughter Emma Flannery come together in this incredible exploration of a rapidly growing and enormously exciting area of science. Together, they've assembled possibly the weirdest collection of knowledge about the human body, from poo transfusions to research into how

Escaping the End of Times is a book where history meets psychology. It invites readers to explore the intricate relationships between dreams, politics, and the Chinese writing system in early modern China.Thoroughly researched and written in an accessible manner, this book presents a series of historical encounters that reveal how Ming scholars countered instability by compiling and editing dream texts. Readers learn how these scholars translated their dreams into action, used the past to bolster their status, reaffirmed their preferred societal order, merged myth and history, and interpreted their dreams and the dreams of others through creative techniques grounded in scholarly tradition.By combining detailed research with captivating storytelling, this book not only brings the world of late Ming dream analysis to life but also demonstrates the relevance of the past to the stories we tell now about ourselves and our own dreams.

In Socializing Medicine, Pao-chen Tang, Yuqian Yan, and Ling Zhang explore the intersections of medicine, health, and East Asian media. Interweaving archival research, audiovisual analyses, and theoretical insights from the emerging field of health humanities, the book reveals the multifaceted ways in which the mass media—from photography and film to television and live streaming—has been deployed as a tool for controlling medicine and health, privileging those with power and authority from the early twentieth century to the present. Adopting anti-colonial and anti-capitalist perspectives, the contributors in this volume challenge the dominant mediations of health against the backdrop of imperialism, Cold War geopolitical tensions, and neoliberal capitalism. Collectively, they advocate for alternative understandings of medical culture through media productions that envision accessible and equitable healthcare practices.

Volume IThe Silk Manuscripts from Zidanku, Changsha (Hunan), are the only pre-Imperial Chinese manuscripts on silk found to-date. Dating to the turn from the 4th to the 3rd centuries BC (Late Warring States period), they contain several texts concerning basic cosmological concepts, including one manuscript (Manuscript 1) with a diagrammatic arrangement and surrounded by pictorial illustrations. As such, they constitute a unique source of information complementing and going beyond what is known from transmitted texts.This is the first in a two-volume monograph on the Zidanku manuscripts, reflecting almost four decades of research by Professor Li Ling of Peking University. While the philological study and translation of the manuscript texts is the subject of Volume Two, this first volume presents the archaeological context andhistory of transmission of the physical manuscripts. It records how they were taken from their original place of interment in the 1940s and taken to the United Stat

This book is the second in a two-volume monograph on the Zidanku Silk Manuscripts. Looted in 1942 from the Warring States-period Chu tomb at Zidanku, Changsha, the manuscripts date to the turn from the 4th to the 3rd centuries BCE and are the only pre-Imperial Chinese manuscripts on silk found to-date. The monograph represents the culmination of almost four decades of research by Professor Li Ling of Peking University. Volume One addresses the circumstances of the discovery of the Zidanku Silk Manuscripts and the subsequent provenance history in China and the United States.Volume Two provides the first complete transcription of the Zidanku Silk Manuscripts in their entirety together with reproductions of the original manuscripts. The transcription is accompanied by comprehensive annotations, with full paleographic and philological analysis of the texts. An English translation of the texts has been added by Professor Donald Harper. For the first time, the Zidanku Silk Manuscripts can be

This book explores the possibility of building the resilience of the UNESCO cultural landscapes, both using theoretical conceptions and practical strategies and actions. Two case studies have been selected, one in Italy and one in China, which have then been explored for the first time in such a comparative way. Different notions of landscape, as well as the driving force of changes affecting these landscapes, are examined and compared.Moreover, the perceptions of the local communities regarding these landscapes are examined, using online questionnaires with over 400 participants. This research highlights the need for an integrated management system, building stronger rural communities able to manage change and continuity. Five pillars to build the resilience of these landscapes have been provided, with schemes and figures, requiring a people-centered approach in their management.This book demonstrates strong connections between identity and landscape resilience, especially in inlandar

本書是國內第一部系統評介「質的研究方法」（qualitative research）的專著，對目前國際社會科學界提出的有關理論問題以及新近發展出來的操作方式進行了深入的探討，並結合有關西方學者以及作者自己的研究實例對其進行了生動的展示和說明。「質的研究方法」目前在社會科學研究領域是與「量的研究方法」相提並論、交相輝映的一種研究方法，它要求研究者深入社會現象，透過親身體驗了解研究對象的存在方式和意義解釋，在原始資料的基礎之上建立相關理論。 因其理論性與實務性的結合，本書既可以作為社會科學（及其分支學科）方法論以及方法課程的教材，也可以提供從事社會科學研究的專業人員和業餘愛好者參考使用。

這本書主要是想分享給兩種讀者，一種是在做遷移研究的人，另一種是本身即為遷移者，也許您可以參考與閱讀本書。作者稱，本書不是完整的回憶錄，而是把在臺灣居住五十年中，聚焦於描繪出在臺灣大學的學術角色，也是把自己人生最寶貴的歲月做個記錄。本書所要呈現的，不是只有關於移民生活成功的一面，其實在此過程也夾雜了挫折與失意，以及適應上的躑躅與徬徨。【各界推薦】Lee Chack Fan/ 李焯芬President, Chu Hai College of Higher EducationEmeritus Professor and Former Vice-President, HKUNora is well respected as a diligent and highly productive scholar, and a very able organizer of academic conferences and international scientific exchange programs.

We all want to make great decisions, but frequently, we don't. When the moment of truth arrives, we make choices that we later regret. It causes us to wonder if we actually can begin to make better decisions for our lives.Pastor and bestselling author Craig Groeschel understands this dilemma that we all face. From both personal experience and as a minister and counselor to others, he knows what it is like to be trapped in a cycle of bad decision-making. But over time, he has discovered how to short-circuit the bad-decision cycle, make wise decisions, and begin to become the person God wants us to be.In the Think Ahead Workbook, which accompanies the book of the same name, Craig draws on the truth of Scripture and the latest research in human behavior to reveal the power of making decisions in advance--what we might call "pre-deciding"--to position ourselves to make the choices we really want to make and avoid those choices that we do not want to make. In the process, he reveals: The sc

Health is not just the absence of disease.In an era when living to 100 is becoming more common,our concept of ageing must evolve. While Hong Kong people enjoy the world's longest life expectancy, an important question arises: Are we truly achieving healthy ageing? In this book, Professor Jean Woo addresses a diverse array of challenges associated with the elderly population in Hong Kong society, including issues like elderly poverty, unfriendly community designs, unfair stigmatization faced by seniors, and late-life loneliness. Drawing on extensive research and clinical experience, she advocates for self-care, education, and empowerment, encouraging us to move beyond dependence on doctors and medications. Ageing is inevitable, yet we can control how we age. --------------------------------------------------------------By 2046, 36% of Hong Kongers will be ‘older adults’.
