The Dragon in China and Japan

The Dragon in China and Japan

By: M. W. De Visser

Little is known of Dutch author MARINUS WILLEM DE VISSER (1876-1930) beyond his academic life as a classicist with an interest in Chinese and Japanese language and culture, and as a popularizer of Japanese art in the Netherlands. He is best remembered today for having given us a cornerstone examination of the legends of fantastic flying reptiles known as dragons. The Dragon in China and Japan contains "the most interesting quotations concerning the dragon in China, systematically arranged, selected from the enormous number of passages on this fantastic animal in Chinese literature, from the remotest eras down to modern times," notes cryptozoologist Loren Coleman in his new introduction. Coleman also praises the book's use of primary source material. "If cryptozoologists are to study the Asian dragons of India, China, and Japan, it must not be done through the screen of today's New Age mentality. Scholarly, level-headed examinations of living, breathing reports of serpentine flying beasts, water-borne megafauna, and shadowy entities must be balanced with investigations of the legends and folktales of these dragons from Asian texts," such as de Visser's here. This new edition, a replica of the 1913 first edition complete with extensive notes in the original Asian alphabet, is part of Cosimo's Loren Coleman Presents series. LOREN COLEMAN is author of numerous books of cryptozoology, including Bigfoot!: The True Story of Apes in America and Mothman and Other Curious Encounters.

Palace Ware Across the Neo-Assyrian Imperial Landscape

Social Value and Semiotic Meaning

By: Alice M.W. Hunt

In Palace Ware Across the Neo-Assyrian Imperial Landscape, Alice Hunt investigates the social and symbolic meaning of Palace Ware by its cultural audience in the Neo-Assyrian central and annexed provinces, and the unincorporated territories, including buffer zones and vassal states. Traditionally, Palace Ware has been equated with imperial identity. By understanding these vessels as a vehicle through which interregional and intercultural relationships were negotiated and maintained she reveals their complexity gaining a more nuanced view of imperial dynamics. Palace Ware Across the Neo-Assyrian Imperial Landscape is the first work of its kind; providing in-depth analysis of the formal and fabric characteristic, production technology, and raw material provenance of Palace Ware, and locating these data within the larger narratives of power, presentation, symbol and meaning that shaped the Neo-Assyrian imperial landscape.

Defiance of the Realm

By: M. W. Kohler

Defiance of the Realm is the sixth book in The Valley Series. The wielders of Dark Magic have been destroyed, or so it is thought. Peace has come to all the Domains of Rightful magic and, the lives of those who lived in them. But, there are those, of yet unknown Domains and some of the known ones, who have not found the happiness they believe they are due. Both Namson, Overseer of the Realm, and his son Zachia, feel as though there is something wrong, but they cannot pin down what it could be. Could it be that some of the characters of many nightmares are real, but not as known by those who told of them? Could the Werewolves, told of in many stories, be different than portrayed? Could the Gargoyles, whose profiles were added to buildings, to be protectors against evil spirits, be something taken from the distorted memories of those who knew the living creatures? Could the greed of a few, destroy the happiness of many? Could the strengths of those many, destroy that greed? These are questions that will be answered in, Defiance of the Realm. By following The Valley Series, we have come to know those of Rightful Magic and, those of Dark Magic. We have come to know the trials of those of Rightful Magic and the losses of those of Dark Magic. But, what if all we have known, is not all there is? What if there is more, that could be worse?

Born of Gods

The Boyhood of Alexander The Great

By: M W Banks

This fascinating account, envisages as a virtual film, Alexander the Great's early life tracing events from his birth, through to his boyhood and thence to the brink of manhood. He inherited his father Philip's military brilliance and his mother's beauty and passion, and cunning aptitude for manipulating his contemporaries into performing his bidding. It gives the reader an engrossing insight into what life was like two thousand four hundred years ago. The beliefs and achievements of Alexander the Great are more relevant to our overcrowded and stressed world of today than at any time since he died. Alexander believed in the essential brotherhood of human beings; that we are divided only by our culture. This belief would stand us all in good stead in solving the problems of today's world.

T his book is an exploration of what it means to have a Spiritual heart. Having a spiritual heart allows us to understand what love for each other is. It allows us to seek to know God on a deeper and personal level; and to serve him in spirit and in truth. John 4 vs 24, Jesus in talking to the women at the well tells her that God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth, In verse 23 of that same chapter Jesus also said ‘but the hour cometh, and now is when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him’. God want true worshipers, those that worship him from the heart not the lips.

The Sirdar

Sir Reginald Wingate and the British Empire in the Middle East

By: M. W. Daly

Francis Reginald Wingate (1861-1953) was a major figure in the political, administrative, and military history of the Middle East from the early 1880s until the end of WWI. As dir. of military intelligence in the British-officered Egyptian Army during the Sudan campaigns; as sirdar (commander-in-chief) of that army and gov.-gen. of the Sudan during the formative period of its colonial admin.; and as high commissioner in Egypt during the latter half of the first world war and the crisis that led to the Egyptian revolution of 1919, he stands with Cromer and Kitchener as architects of the British empire in the Middle East. Yet Wingate has received much less notice than his famous contemporaries such as Gordon of Khartoum and Lawrence of Arabia. This biography corrects the historical imbalance. Illus.

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Making New Words

Morphological Derivation in English

By: Robert M. W. Dixon

Making New Words provides a detailed study of the 200 or so prefixes and suffixes which create new words in today's English. Alongside a systematic discussion of these forms, Professor Dixon explores and explains the hundreds of conundrums that seem to be exceptions to general rules. Why, for instance, do we say un-distinguished (with prefix un-) but in-distinguishable (with in-); why un-ceasing but in-cesssant? Why, alongside gold-en, do we say silver-y (not silver-en)? Why is it wood-en (not wood-ic) but metall-ic (not metall-en)? After short preliminary chapters, which set the scene and outline the criteria employed, there are accounts of the derivation of negative words, of other derivations which do not change word class, on making new verbs, new adjectives, new nouns, and new adverbs. The final chapter deals with combinations of suffixes, of prefixes, and of the two together. Within each chapter, derivational affixes are arranged in semantic groups, the members of which are contrasted with respect to meaning and function; for example, child-less and child-free. For each affix there is an account of its genetic origin (from Old English, Greek, Latin, French, and so on), its phonological form and implications for stress placement, the roots it can be attached to (and why), and how its range of meanings has developed over the centuries. The book is written in the author's accustomed style - clear and well-organised, with easy-to-understand explanations. The exposition is illustrated by examples, ranging from Shakespeare, W. S. Gilbert, and modern novels to what was heard on the radio. It will be an invaluable text and sourcebook for scholars and students of the English language and of general linguistics, from undergraduate level upwards. The many fascinating facts presented here, in such a lucid and accessible manner, will also appeal to the general reader interested in picking to pieces the English language to see how it works.

Atom Resolved Surface Reactions

Nanocatalysis

By: P R Davies,M W Roberts

This book offers a unique perspective of the impact of scanning probe microscopes on our understanding of the chemistry of the surface at the nanoscale. Research oriented, with the concepts gleaned from Scanning Tunnelling Microscopy being related to the more established and accepted views in surface chemistry and catalysis, the authors have addressed the question "How do the models based on classical spectroscopic and kinetic studies stand up to scrutiny at the atom-resolved level?". In taking this approach the reader, new to the field of surface chemistry, should be able to obtain a perspective on how the evidence from STM confirms or questions long standing tenets. An emphasis is given to "how did we get to where we are now" and a large number of figures from the literature are included along with suggestions for further reading. Topics discussed include: - the dynamics of oxygen chemisorption at metal surfaces - control of oxygen states and surface reconstruction - dissociative chemisorption of diatomic and hydrocarbon molecules - nanoparticles and chemical reactivity - STM at high pressures - structural studies of sulfur containing molecules and molecular templating This book will appeal to all those who wish to become familiar with the contribution Scanning Tunnelling Microscopy has made to the understanding of the field of surface chemistry and heterogeneous catalysis and also to those who are new to catalysis, a fascinating and important area of chemistry.

Psychoactive Drugs

Tolerance and Sensitization

By: A. J. Goudie,M. W. Emmett-Oglesby

Research into the processes of tolerance and sensitization has escalated at a substantial rate in recent years, presumably because of the fundamental importance of understanding the long-term, as opposed simply to the initial, acute effects of drugs. The rapid of such research in recent years is documented c1early by growth the editors in the introductory chapter to this text. However, despite the fact that there is a very large amount of literature concemed with the effects of long-term drug treatment, there is, to the best of our knowledge, no published text that has ever attempted to integrate some of the many diverse findings that have been made in this area. Basic research has uncovered a num ber of different mechanisms by which tolerance and sensitization to drugs can develop. Such mechanisms are of very different types, involving psychological behavioral, metabolic, neuronal, and subcellular processes. Because of the complexity of each of these different types of mechanisms, with few exceptions, individual re searchers usually tend, understandably, to concentrate on their own specific areas of expertise, paying relatively little attention to rele vant research occurring in other areas. Consequently, they neglect or simply ignore the important question of the relative importance of the specific mechanism that they are studying, and the related question of the possible interrelationships that may exist between different mechanisms for the production of tolerance and sensitiza tion.

The Cutting Season

(Quick Reads 2022)

By: M. W. Craven

Poe's just hanging around on a Saturday afternoon... Dangling from a hook in a meat packing plant isn't how Detective Sergeant Washington Poe wants to spend his weekend. He's been punched and kicked and threatened, and when a contract killer arrives it seems things are about to go from bad to worse. He goes by the name of the Pale Man and he and his straight-edged razor have been feared all over London for twenty years. But Poe knows two things the Pale Man doesn't. Although it might seem like a hopeless situation, Poe has planned to be here all along. More importantly, a nerdy, computer whizz-kid called Tilly Bradshaw is watching his back. And now things are about to get interesting . . . _______________ This is a short story, not a full-length novel. _______________ Praise for M W Craven: 'I've been following M.W. Craven's Poe/Tilly series from the very beginning, and it just gets better and better. Dead Ground is a fast-paced crime novel with as many twists and turns as a country lane.

A Collection of Children's Stories

With a Focus on Phonics Ii

By: M.W. Lashgari

Seven heart-warming, engaging and educational stories: Chloes Birthday Party on the Clouds, Kite Competition in Kings Kindergarten, Elephants Cant Lay Eggs!, Hina and Hanna in a Honey Pot House, Red Nose Day in Rhino School, A Monstrous Dream!, and A Big Surprise for Daniel are aiming to help children learn the second group of sounds: c/ck, k, e, h, r, m and d. Each story focuses on one sound and provides many words as examples for it. The targeted sounds have been clearly highlighted using different colours to attract the childs attention. This could increase the childs later recall of that sound as well as developing the childs understanding that one letter may sound differently in different words. An example of this is how the letter e in the word eggs sounds different from e in the word these. If you enjoy reading these stories and learning the sounds, the other volumes of books in this collection will be as appealing!
