Book Synopsis China's New Rulers by : Bruce Gilley
Download or read book China's New Rulers written by Bruce Gilley and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2003-10-31 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the Chinese Communist Party's 16th Congress in November 2002, a group of new leaders took over the world's most populous country. Their accession as the "Fourth Generation" of rulers of the People's Republic—following the generations of Mao Zedong, Deng Xiaoping, and Jiang Zemin—signaled the end of a long, complex struggle for power. Yet little has been known outside high Party circles about either that struggle or the men who emerged victorious from it. China's New Rulers, based on confidential Party files leaked to a Chinese writer abroad, offers an unprecedented glimpse into the most orderly succession in the turbulent history of the People's Republic. At its center are detailed descriptions of the nine men who will rule China for the next five years—their backgrounds, their characters, and their visions for the future. Among the challenges they will face are economic reform and China's integration into a global economy, pressures for political liberalization and human rights, ethnic unrest in Tibet and Xinjiang, the status of Taiwan, and relations with the US. China's New Rulers is an extraordinary account of a high-level political drama that has largely taken place in secret. It portrays many key figures in the Party, government, and military, and provides new information on Jiang Zemin's thirteen years in office. Most importantly, it contains the first insights into matters of great importance to the West: who will lead China, what changes they may bring to their country, and how they may act as international partners and competitors.

This book was released on 2023-07-31 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the annals of history, there are civilizations that emerge from the shadows of time, enigmatic and alluring, leaving behind a legacy that continues to captivate our imagination. Among these enigmatic civilizations lies the ancient land of Albania, shrouded in mystery and rich in historical intrigue. Nestled in the heart of the Balkans, this ancient region bore witness to the rise and fall of illustrious rulers - the Kings and Queens of Ancient Albania, whose stories beckon us to uncover the secrets of their captivating past. Our journey into the enigmatic world of ancient Albania begins with the allure of Illyria, the land that birthed these remarkable rulers. Beyond the pages of ancient texts and the fragments of inscriptions, we embark on a quest to unravel the forgotten chronicles of Illyria's origins and foundations. From the shadowy realms of prehistory to the emergence of tribal confederacies, we are drawn into a world of cultural intermingling and evolving societies. At the heart of this narrative stands Bardylis, a powerful Illyrian king whose name echoes through the annals of history. As we peer into the depths of time, we witness the rise of this ambitious monarch, founder of the Ardiaean Kingdom in the 4th century BCE. His vision and conquests laid the foundation for a kingdom that would endure through the annals of time, shaping the destiny of the land that would later become Albania. Glaukias, a chieftain of the Taulantii tribe, emerges as another key figure in the saga of ancient Albania. His short-lived Illyrian kingdom in the 3rd century BCE left a fleeting but significant mark on the region's history, raising questions about the intricate politics and rivalries of that era. As our journey continues, we encounter Agron, a figure whose legacy intertwines with that of Queen Teuta. Ruling over the Ardiaean Kingdom in the 3rd century BCE, Agron's reign set the stage for his indomitable wife, Queen Teuta, to take the reins of power upon his untimely demise. Her reign would be marked by a conflict with the Roman Republic, a confrontation that would not only shape the course of her kingdom but also leave an enduring mark on the pages of history.
Book Synopsis What the Emperor Built by : Aurelia Campbell
Download or read book What the Emperor Built written by Aurelia Campbell and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2020-06-30 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most famous rulers in Chinese history, the Yongle emperor (r. 1402–24) gained renown for constructing Beijing’s magnificent Forbidden City, directing ambitious naval expeditions, and creating the world’s largest encyclopedia. What the Emperor Built is the first book-length study devoted to the architectural projects of a single Chinese emperor. Focusing on the imperial palaces in Beijing, a Daoist architectural complex on Mount Wudang, and a Buddhist temple on the Sino-Tibetan frontier, Aurelia Campbell demonstrates how the siting, design, and use of Yongle’s palaces and temples helped cement his authority and legitimize his usurpation of power. Campbell offers insight into Yongle’s sense of empire—from the far-flung locations in which he built, to the distant regions from which he extracted construction materials, and to the use of tens of thousands of craftsmen and other laborers. Through his constructions, Yongle connected himself to the divine, interacted with his subjects, and extended imperial influence across space and time. Spanning issues of architectural design and construction technologies, this deft analysis reveals remarkable advancements in timber-frame construction and implements an art-historical approach to examine patronage, audience, and reception, situating the buildings within their larger historical and religious contexts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Age Of The Candellas Is One Of The Glorious Epochs Of Ancient Indian History. Their History Has Been Attracting The Scholars Ever Since The Publication Of Cunningham S Reports, But Barring A Few Papers And A Chapter Each In Vaidya S History Of Mediaeval Hindu India And Ray S Dynastic History Of Northern India, There Was No Comprehensive Work On The Subject When I Assigned The Topic To Dr. Dikshit For His Doctorate Thesis (Degree Awarded In 1950). There Has Been Considerable Delay In The Publication Of The Thesis, But It Has Enabled The Author To Revise And Elaborate It In The Light Of Subsequent Discoveries. The Present Book Gives An Authentic Account Of The History Of The Candellas, And Is Well Documented. It Is Based On A Critical Appreciation Of The Available Sources, Literary As Well As Archaeological, And Personal Exploration Leading To The Discovery Of Certain Inscriptions That Had Not Been Noticed Earlier. The Author Has Utilized Rupakasatakam, An Important Work Of Candella Times, For The First Time-A Work That Has Not Been Noticed By Other Writers On The Subject. Dr. Dikshit Is Objective In His Approach, Uninfluenced By Historical Bias Or Dogmatism. On Certain Crucial Points, Where He Has Ventured To Differ From Other Scholars, He Has Set Forth His Views With Clarity-Based On Sound Arguments. This Work Is A Valuable Contribution To The History Of The Candellas, And I Am Sure, It Will Prove Useful To All Those Who Are Interested In Its Study. -
Book Synopsis Celestial Encounters by : Florin Diacu
Download or read book Celestial Encounters written by Florin Diacu and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-12-08 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Celestial Encounters is for anyone who has ever wondered about the foundations of chaos. In 1888, the 34-year-old Henri Poincaré submitted a paper that was to change the course of science, but not before it underwent significant changes itself. "The Three-Body Problem and the Equations of Dynamics" won a prize sponsored by King Oscar II of Sweden and Norway and the journal Acta Mathematica, but after accepting the prize, Poincaré found a serious mistake in his work. While correcting it, he discovered the phenomenon of chaos. Starting with the story of Poincaré's work, Florin Diacu and Philip Holmes trace the history of attempts to solve the problems of celestial mechanics first posed in Isaac Newton's Principia in 1686. In describing how mathematical rigor was brought to bear on one of our oldest fascinations--the motions of the heavens--they introduce the people whose ideas led to the flourishing field now called nonlinear dynamics. In presenting the modern theory of dynamical systems, the models underlying much of modern science are described pictorially, using the geometrical language invented by Poincaré. More generally, the authors reflect on mathematical creativity and the roles that chance encounters, politics, and circumstance play in it.
