Through The Storm(Volume 1)

The Chinese People’s Liberation Army in the Cultural Revolution

By: YU Ruxin

Mao Zedong once famously said, “Power grows from the barrel of a gun,” and a prime example is the People’s Liberation Army (PLA). With the founding of the People’s Republic of China, the PLA’s mandate extended beyond safeguarding national security to maintaining domestic order and keeping the Chinese Communist Party in power. In the 1960s and 1970s, the PLA was Mao’s chief instrument in preparing, launching and further developing the Cultural Revolution, but its role was complex and often opaque. Through the Storm meticulously traces the PLA’s role through archival research and interviews with retired cadres and officers to show that the military’s role in the Cultural Revolution has been historically understated, and that it eclipsed that of the more high-profile civilian Red Guards in both scale and duration. With its Chinese edition hailed in media and academia as an “exceptionally valuable” achievement, this book’s condensed English edition offers international readers a deeper understanding of the PLA’s role in launching and perpetuating the most sustained and violent campaign in modern Chinese history.

The Girl King

By: Mimi Yu

“Absolutely fantastic.” -Kendare Blake, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Three Dark Crowns series “Heart-pounding.” -Buzzfeed * “Masterful.” -School Library Journal, starred review In this dark, sweeping fantasy perfect for fans of Girls of Paper and Fire and Wicked Saints, Princesses Lu and Min find themselves on opposite sides of a war to rule their Empire. Sisters Lu and Min have always known their places as the princesses of the Empire of the First Flame: assertive Lu will be named her father's heir and become the dynasty's first female ruler, while timid Min will lead a quiet life in Lu's shadow. Until their father names a new heir--their male cousin, Set. Determined to reclaim her birthright, Lu goes in search of allies, leaving Min to face the volatile court alone. Lu soon crosses paths with Nokhai, the lone, unlikely survivor of the Ashina, a clan of nomadic wolf shapeshifters. Nok never learned to shift--or to trust the empire that killed his family--but working with the princess might be the only way to unlock his true power. As Lu and Nok form a tenuous alliance, Min's own hidden power awakens, a forbidden, deadly magic that could secure Set's reign . . . or allow her to claim the throne herself. But there can only be one emperor, and the sisters' greatest enemy could very well turn out to be each other. This sweeping fantasy set against a world of ancient magic and political intrigue weaves an unforgettable story of ambition, betrayal, and sacrifice.

China's Macao Transformed

Challenge and Development in the 21st Century

By: Eilo W.Y.YU,Ming K.CHAN

The return of Macao from the Portuguese administration to the People's Republic of China (PRC) in 1999 marks the beginning of its transformation in the 21st century. Macao was confronted with various issues concerning then existing political system, economic downturn and gangland violence during the transition period. Beijing put Macao under the "One country, Two Systems" and implemented a wide variety of measures in order to restore its law and order as well as to recover its tourism dependent economy. Gradually, Macao transformed itself to "Las Vegas of the East". This volume of 18 essays highlights the key dimensions of Macao's remarkable "One country, Two Systems" actualisation experience in its first 15 years, and discusses how Macao transformed and what challenges it encountered during its post-handover transformation. The volume has several focuses. It first investigates the political and electoral issues in a critical manner─ post-handover Macao suffered from maladministration and limited democratization, and the chief executives selected lacked representativeness due to restricted public participation in the electoral process. Overall speaking, the government lacked legitimacy and popular support. From a socio-economic point of view, this book looks into the business model in running Macao's casinos and the emerging culture of mass participation and youth participation in political affairs. The education reformation and changes in civic identity of local Macao Chinese are also addressed. Finally, the volume looks into how post-handover Macao relates itself in the international politics affair.

Cold CEO's Sweet Wife

Volume 1

By: Yu Yu

On a certain day in a certain year, a faint shadow appeared in Mu Si Nan's eyes. Just like that, ten thousand years passed. I remember Shen Congwen saying something, "I know you came back, so I'll wait." That was why Mu Sinnan and the others had come. I remember that I love you only three words, but the hidden meaning is indescribable with words, so Mouseson didn't say it, but she did. Join Collection
