Описание: Through a series of lively and absorbing portraits of iconic modern Chinese leaders and thinkers, two of today's foremost specialists on China provide a panoramic narrative of this country's rise to preeminence that is at once analytical and personal. How did a nation, after a long and painful period of dynastic decline, intellectual upheaval, foreign occupation, civil war, and revolution, manage to burst forth onto the world stage with such an impressive run of hyperdevelopment and wealth creation--culminating in the extraordinary dynamism of China today? Wealth and Power answers this question by examining the lives of eleven influential officials, writers, activists, and leaders whose contributions helped create modern China. This fascinating survey begins in the lead-up to the first Opium War with Wei Yuan, the nineteenth-century scholar and reformer who was one of the first to urge China to borrow ideas from the West. It concludes in our time with human-rights advocate and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Liu Xiaobo, an outspoken opponent of single-party rule. Along the way, we meet such titans of Chinese history as the Empress Dowager Cixi, public intellectuals Feng Guifen, Liang Qichao, and Chen Duxiu, Nationalist stalwarts Sun Yat-sen and Chiang Kai-shek, and Communist Party leaders Mao Zedong, Deng Xiaoping, and Zhu Rongji. The common goal that unites all of these disparate figures is their determined pursuit of fuqiang, "wealth and power." This abiding quest for a restoration of national greatness in the face of a "century of humiliation" at the hands of the Great Powers came to define the modern Chinese character. It's what drove both Mao and Deng to embark on root-and-branch transformations of Chinese society, first by means of Marxism-Leninism, then by authoritarian capitalism. And this determined quest remains the key to understanding many of China's actions today. By unwrapping the intellectual antecedents of today's resurgent China, Orville Schell and John Delury supply much-needed insight into the country's tortured progression from nineteenth-century decline to twenty-first-century boom. By looking backward into the past to understand forces at work for hundreds of years, they help us understand China today and the future that this singular country is helping shape for all of us.

Описание: No-one who took part in the NATO Advanced Studies Institute from which this book emerges will have forgotten the experience. True, the necessary conditions for a very successful workshop were satisfied: a field of physics bursting with new power and new puzzles, a matchless team of lecturers, an international gathering of students many of whom had themselves contributed at the forefront of their subject, an admirable overlap of experiment and theory, a good mix of experimenters and theorists, an enviable environment. But who could have foreseen the way the workshop became a focus for future directions, how fresh scientific ideas tumbled out of the discussion periods, how the context of teaching the field produced such fruitfulness of research at the highest level? The organisers did have some specific aims in mind. Perhaps foremost was the desire to compare notes among different areas within the sub field of soft condensed matter physics fast becoming known as "complex fluids". For readers seeking a definition, the prosaic "fluids with bits in" can be passed rapidly over in favour of the elegant discussion of slow variables by Scott Milner in his chapter. The uniting goals of the subject are to model the essential molecular or mesoscopic structure theoretically, and to probe this structure as well as the bulk response of the system experimentally. Our famous examples were: colloids, polymers, liquid crystals, block co-polymers and self-assembling surfactant systems.

Humanity's purpose has long been the center of controversial debate by all sects, communities and religious persuasion throughout our history. The obvious and undeniable observation is that we are here, but the more difficult question to answer is "Why are we here?"
I believe for each of us, the answer may be different, if we should examine the question from the position of purpose, but what about those who believe we are just here by chance, and for no apparent reason? How valid and believable are their arguments in the cosmic scale of our reality? It is obvious that the world is much bigger than we could ever possibly know, yet with a majority of existence unknown, we can barely handle what is known.
Made In God's Image is a conversation-starter, because I believe there is something to that statement. We know what we became after man fell in the Garden, but what was man before the fall? How did we look? How did we function? Surely, this, that we know now, is not it. If there was a way to leave such perfection and unity with the Creator, there must be a way back. Finding the Ancient Path is an imaginative, colorful and picturesque journey from the past to a possible future outside the realms of what we already know. I can't say for sure what it looks like, but I believe that is where we are going.
The purpose of this journey is to trigger your own imagination to see a world outside of time, space and matter, and to begin to realize that your being here is by divine providence.
Man fell from his original state, which had a negative cosmic effect on all creation. The word fell suggests a descent from our original form, function, structure, and faculty. We could no longer be identified in our original form. The process of faith in Yeshua (Jesus) is to take us back to where we fell from; it's a transmutative and transfigurative process that seeks to complete the full restoration of our body back to its divine essence, allowing it to do all that it was made to do. Every believer needs to grow into the fullness of Christ until we are fully conformed to His image. We were always meant to become like Yeshua (Jesus) and function in the same capacity. This book is designed to challenge your present perception and paradigm and reestablish a biblical foundation with an open invitation to whomever will.

Jesus was asked in St. Matthew 22, "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law?" He replied with two, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: Love your neighbour as yourself. All the Law and Prophets hang on these two commandments." (St. Matthew 22:36-40).
The Christian community celebrated that Jesus reduced 613 commandments found in the Old Testament to only two under the New Covenant. As I meditated on this, I realized that we were missing something, and while loving God, and loving people may seem straight-forward enough, it was not quite evident in the lifestyles of many Christians. While we get some part right, in other areas we were not doing so well. The Words of Jesus kept resonating in my soul, "If you love Me, you will keep My commandments." (St. John 14:15 - ESV). The part I think we missed is, "All the law and prophets hang..."
I went on a personal retreat to revisit the New Testament and extract everything that would look like a command from Jesus. I numbered them as I went along, and was very surprised to see that when this journey ended, the number was 613 -- the exact number of commands given in the Old Testament. I knew then that this book had to be released.
