Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of stories that portray life as it is lived today under the shadow of the repressive and corrupt communist regime that now rules in Vietnam. The characters who live in these pages represent many levels of social class in the early 21st century in Vietnam.The stories illuminate the hardships and the soul-crushing routine of day-to-day life in a society governed by bullying bureaucrats and petty apparatchiks. The reader will meet orphaned children who wander the streets—selling newspapers or lottery tickets, collecting rubbish in exchange for a few spoonfuls of rice. There are stories of honest and patriotic intellectuals who have lost their way in a world that does not value their accomplishments. There are also sympathetic communists who now question their ideology and want to find a better way, but they cannot act for fear of economic hardship and even imprisonment. Another story addresses the issue of young women who have become victims of human trafficking, sold like cattle to rich foreigners. The title story, “The Rain still Falls in Saigon,” describes the return of an expatriate to her native land and her feelings of nostalgia and sadness as she surveys her homeland from an outsider’s perspective. All of the stories reflect the tears that the Vietnamese people have been crying for their country for more than 65 years.Doug BurkeEditor-at-large

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection challenges the common preoccupation with knowledge acquisition and academic achievement by comparing the aims and cultural beliefs which drive education in different countries throughout the world. Through case studies from countries in Asia, Latin America, Africa, and Europe, the authors present how education can be approached holistically to foster student happiness and well-being. The book illustrates wide-ranging interpretations of what it means to provide a "good education," and how student-centered, holistic approaches to learning can be effective in promoting creativity, tolerance, student well-being, and an appreciation of environmental and societal responsibilities. Based on rigorous mixed-method empirical research, it highlights how the integration of happiness in education can not only enhance academic excellence but can also have a positive impact on the students’ overall well-being. This cutting-edge book focuses on the holistic development and well-being of students and will be a relevant reading for educators, researchers, and students in such diverse fields as psychology, the sociology and philosophy of education, intercultural education, education policy and politics, leadership/management, mental health, and international and comparative education.

Book excerpt: Serpent Rising: The Kundalini Compendium là kết quả cuối cùng của hành trình chuyển đổi Kundalini kéo dài 17 năm của tôi sau một lần thức tỉnh đầy đủ và bền vững vào năm 2004 đã mở rộng vĩnh viễn ý thức của tôi. Sau khi trải nghiệm quá trình nâng cấp hình ảnh hoàn chỉnh cho phép tôi chứng kiến bản chất Ảnh ba chiều của thế giới hàng ngày, tôi biết rằng điều xảy ra với tôi là duy nhất. Vì vậy, trong phần tiếp theo của cuộc đời, tôi quyết định sử dụng năng khiếu của mình và cống hiến hết mình cho việc tìm hiểu khoa học về thế giới năng lượng vô hình mà tôi có mối liên hệ mật thiết đồng thời phát triển các kỹ năng ngôn ngữ phù hợp để truyền đạt những khám phá của mình một cách toàn diện. Đánh thức Kundalini là một phần trong sứ mệnh Linh hồn của bạn trên Trái đất. Mục đích cuối cùng của nó là tối ưu hóa trường năng lượng hình xuyến của bạn (Merkaba) và biến bạn thành Sinh vật Ánh sáng, cho phép du hành Đa chiều thông qua ý thức. Có kiến thức phù hợp trong lĩnh vực này có thể giúp bạn kiểm soát Sự tiến hóa Tâm linh của mình và hoàn thành sứ mệnh của mình để bạn có thể tiếp tục hành trình xuyên qua các vì sao trong kiếp sau. Đây là lý do tại sao tôi viết cuốn sách này. Serpent Rising: The Kundalini Compendium trình bày mọi thứ bạn cần biết về chủ đề Kundalini, bao gồm tác động của quá trình Xuất hồn lên giải phẫu con người và vai trò của hệ thần kinh, cách khai thác toàn bộ tiềm năng của bộ não và đánh thức sức mạnh của trái tim bạn và cách sử dụng các phương thức Chữa lành Tâm linh như Pha lê, Nĩa điều chỉnh, Trị liệu bằng hương thơm và Tattvas để nâng cao rung động Luân xa của bạn. Phần lớn cuốn sách được dành cho triết lý và thực hành Yoga (với Ayurveda), bao gồm danh sách các Asana, Pranayamas, Mudras, Mantras và thiền định cũng như hướng dẫn sử dụng chúng. Tôi cũng thảo luận chi tiết về quá trình thức tỉnh và biến đổi Kundalini, bao gồm thức tỉnh vĩnh viễn và một phần, Giấc mơ sáng suốt, Siddhis (sức mạnh tâm linh), Trải nghiệm ngoài cơ thể, vai trò của thức ăn, nước, chất dinh dưỡng và năng lượng tình dục trong quá trình hội nhập, và những sự kiện đỉnh cao trong quá trình biến đổi tổng thể. Vì tôi vừa là nhà khoa học vừa là phòng thí nghiệm nên cuốn sách này chứa đựng tất cả kiến thức và kinh nghiệm tôi có được trong hành trình Tâm linh, bao gồm cả những bài thiền thiết yếu mà tôi đã phát triển khi gặp phải tình trạng trì trệ và tắc nghẽn năng lượng Kundalini. Cuối cùng, sau khi đánh thức Kundalini những người đang "mò mẫm trong bóng tối" trong nhiều năm để tìm kiếm câu trả lời, tôi cũng đã đưa vào những câu hỏi và mối quan tâm phổ biến nhất của họ. Serpent Rising: The Kundalini Compendium là một bản trình bày kỹ lưỡng và nâng cao về Kundalini, là một cuốn sách phải đọc đối với bất kỳ ai quan tâm đến chủ đề này và sự phát triển Tâm linh của họ.

This book was released on 2021-10-21 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes the role of Đại Việt (Vietnam) in the maritime Asian trading network of the thirteenth through the eighteenth centuries as it systematically integrates the results of archaeological investigations. The first half of the book consolidates reports from excavations conducted at Vân Đồn and Phố Hiến, trading ports of Đại Việt, incorporating sophisticated archaeological techniques distinctive of Japan in the presentations of the data. These are accompanied by precise scale drawings, detailed classifications, and quantitative analyses of unearthed artifacts. The latter half of the book discusses the materials discovered in archaeological investigations, specifically ceramics and coins, in terms of the relations among sites and networks of production, distribution, and consumption, from a broader Asian geohistorical perspective. To this end, the diplomatic policies and trading activities of each era in Vietnam are discussed, integrating the results of archaeological investigations with studies of historical documents. Expanding beyond Vietnam, results of the archaeological investigations in other maritime Asian countries, such as Japan, Indonesia, Laos, and the Philippines, are introduced, to inform a comparative study that combines all such data from both archaeology and history in a single volume as materials for broader discussion. This book is expected to contribute to international academic discourse on the history of maritime Asia and help open a new phase of scholarly endeavor in this field.

Book excerpt: Trong suốt 18 năm cuộc chiến Đông Dương vĩ đại giữa thế kỷ 20, hai nhà văn Vũ Tú Nam và Thanh Hương đã viết nhiều tác phẩm truyền cảm hứng thuộc báo chí, thơ ca và tuyên truyền dành cho những người đồng chí ở miền Bắc Việt Nam - cùng lúc trao đổi những lá thư riêng để giữ vững một tình yêu mãi bị chiến tranh phủ lấp. Liên tục phải xa cách từ khi còn hò hẹn, kết hôn, và khi đã là bố mẹ của hai con nhỏ, những lá thư của họ - không hề với dự định công bố công khai - vẫn là những bản ghi nguyên vẹn về cuộc sống ở phía bắc vĩ tuyến 17. Hồi ức tình yêu là một câu chuyện chưa từng kể về chiến tranh Việt Nam, mang những sắc màu về một kỷ nguyên hiếm khi được tiết lộ với phương Tây, và minh chứng cho trải nghiệm chung của con người về cuộc sống và tình yêu trong mọi thời đại.

This book was released on 2022-02-01 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the mid-1980s, after the Indochina Wars, a shortage of men meant that many single women in Vietnam found themselves without suitable marital prospects. A number of these women chose to pursue single motherhood by “asking for a child” (xin con)—asking men to get them pregnant out of wedlock. Xin con appeared to be a radical departure from traditional Vietnamese kinship values and practices, which were based in Confucian patriarchal and patrilineal reproductive interests. However, this innovative solution was rooted in both pre- and postwar values, practices, and notions of gender, kinship, love, and sexuality. This ethnography explores the practice of xin con among single mothers in the postwar era and today, and considers the ways their reproductive agency was embraced rather than rejected by the Vietnamese state as it entered the global market economy. Rather than condemning or trying to restrict older single women’s reproductive agency, government officials enacted policies that would accommodate both the women and the state—a strategy that represents an intriguing alignment of Confucian heritage, Communist ideology, and governing tactics and demonstrates the social power of women.

Book excerpt: Popular religion in southern Vietnam is so often regarded as an indefinable mix of many different beliefs, meanings and symbols with little pattern of explanation. In contrast, this book highlights that the beliefs of the Vietnamese can be catagorized into four distinct, yet overlapping, spheres and that the varying attitudes which exist towards the spirit world are a direct result of unique historical and environmental circumstances. Vietnamese Supernaturalismexamines a wide range of religious customs, from trancer possession practices to styles of self-cultivation, against several different backgrounds including, migration settlement and the effect of colonialism. Despite the ostensible differences within the practices of 'popular religion', Thien Do controversially demonstrates two consistent similarities: an abiding interest in the altered state of consciousness and the daily acts of survival employed in order to evade identity construction. By brining together oral histories, reports and fiction writing alongside more conventional documented sources, this book reveals an area of history which has been largely neglected. It will prove to be a valuable resource to students of Asian studies, anthropology and all of those with an interest in the history of Vietnam.
