Re-emergence Of China, The: The New Global Era

By: Michael Lloyd,Bob Savic

In eleven chapters this book addresses the issue of the re-emergence of China and a new global order on the world stage, with implications for the existing US hegemonic liberal international order. The Re-Emergence of China reviews the history of China's astounding economic growth and geopolitical development over the past 30 years. It explores the economic, technological, and global development of China during this period; explores the political philosophy and praxis from imperial neo-Confucian times to the present socialist regime; the cultural and social development of China and the role of the Chinese diaspora; and examines the prospects for a new international order with a major role for China.This book will fit comfortably into the required reading schedule for graduate class modules in Chinese and East Asian studies, political theory, economic development, and contemporary political history. Of particular interest will be the exploration of the role of the Chinese diaspora in modern China's development. The authors' focus on the contemporary conflict between the US and China will also be of wider interest to political commentators as well as academic researchers in Chinese studies.The Re-Emergence of China can provide a guiding narrative for academics, researchers, policymakers, industry leaders and many other relevant professionals on how global society can be reshaped in the wake of China's re-emergence in the new global era. By focusing on China's integration with the economic and political world order, in terms of both its advances and setbacks, in addition to the historical contexts, readers can navigate the book's succinct coverage and conclusions on the development of a China polity which has become increasingly connected to the world in some ways, yet more disconnected in others.Related Link(s)

Bread-making quality of wheat

A century of breeding in Europe

By: Bob Belderok,Hans Mesdag,Dingena A. Donner

Wheat has a long history of serving as an important food crop to mankind. Especially in the Northern Hemisphere, it has been appreciated as a major source of energy through its carbohydrates, and in more recent times for its supply of valuable proteins. This combination of carbohydrates and proteins gives wheat its unique properties for making breads of different kinds of tastes. During the course of history, the quality of wheat has improved stead ily, undoubtedly for a long time by accident, and for reasons little under stood. Over the last 150 years our knowledge has increased on farming and crop husbandry, on bringing about improvements through goal-oriented plant breeding, and on milling and baking technology, leading to the standards that we enjoy today. This process will certainly continue as our knowledge of the genetic reservoir of wheat species increases. The European Cereal Atlas Foundation (ECAF) maintains the aim of in creasing and disseminating knowledge about cereal crops. Within that scope ECAF has decided to publish a book on the history of bread wheat in Europe, the development of associated bread-making technology, and the breeding of bread wheats during the twentieth century. As ECAF is a Dutch foundation, its Board is particularly pleased to have found three Dutch scientists willing to contribute to this volume. Two of them have served wheat science in the Netherlands for their entire scientific careers, spanning a period starting around 1955 and lasting for several decades of very productive wheat science development.

These Guys are Good

They Live to Play, They Play to Win: the Spirit and Drama of the PGA TOUR

By: Bob Cullen

As millions of PGA TOUR fans -- many golfers themselves -- can attest, every PGA TOUR tournament represents the drama of golf at its highest level: every shot is new; every hole is an opportunity to improve; and every round is another intricate contest with oneself. But the PGA Tour is also where the world's best players demonstrate their competitive fire, shot by jaw-dropping shot, on the most beautiful and challenging courses in the world. "These Guys Are Good celebrates the players, the great rivalries, the best comebacks, the greatest shots, the toughest playing conditions, and the events behind the scenes of the PGA TOUR. Articles by some of golf's greatest writers -- Bob Cullen, Melanie Hauser, David Barrett, Tom Mackin, and Mark Soltau -- capture the excitement of PGA TOUR competition. The book also features vivid quotes from players, caddies, and fans, as well as striking photography, including many images that have never been seen before.
