Chinese Diasporas provides a concise and compelling new history of internal and external Chinese migration from the sixteenth century to the present day. Steven B. Miles places Chinese migrants and their families at the center of his narrative through a series of engaging case studies taking readers from the heart of Ming China to the global property markets of the twenty-first century. The focus on individual migrants and their descendants reveals the ways in which the 'Chinese diaspora' has consisted of distinct paths of migration from specific emigrant communities to targeted destinations both within China and abroad. This is essential reading for those interested in the history of the Chinese diaspora and the overseas Chinese, and for those interested in the role of migration in the making of the modern world.

Charlie isn’t looking forward to sixth grade. If he starts sixth grade, chances are he’ll finish it, and he’ll be older than his older brother ever was. Armstrong isn’t looking forward to sixth grade either. He’ll have to wake up at five thirty to ride a bus to an all-white school in the Hollywood Hills. When they are assigned seats next to each other, what starts as a rivalry becomes a close friendship. Set in Los Angeles in the 1970s, Armstrong and Charlie is the hilarious, heartwarming tale of two boys from opposite worlds. Different, yet the same.

All major religions in history have offered hope of some kind of afterlife to answer the perennial interest in the question of life after death. This volume brings together renowned experts in the philosophy of religion, Graham Oppy, David Apolloni, Shyam Ranganathan, Joshua Farris and Steven B. Cowan, to present four key starting points in the life after death debate.Providing a lively and collaborative dialogue between leaders in the field, each thinker defends a particular view of the afterlife and critically interacts with the alternative perspectives. They focus on the positions of No Life After Death, the Immortality of the Soul, Reincarnation and Resurrection, with each chapter drawing on views from naturalism, antiquity, Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Jainism and Yogacara. This engagement moves the current debate forward to consider global perspectives whilst the clear and accessible structure allows for a developed exploration of the central issues at stake.Incorporating views spanning secular and religious spheres in both the east and west, this comprehensive guide will be welcomed by students and scholars of contemporary philosophy of religion and comparative philosophy.
Near Extensions and Alignment of Data in R(superscript)n
Near Extensions and Alignment of Data in Rn Comprehensive resource illustrating the mathematical richness of Whitney Extension Problems, enabling readers to develop new insights, tools, and mathematical techniques Near Extensions and Alignment of Data in Rn demonstrates a range of hitherto unknown connections between current research problems in engineering, mathematics, and data science, exploring the mathematical richness of near Whitney Extension Problems, and presenting a new nexus of applied, pure and computational harmonic analysis, approximation theory, data science, and real algebraic geometry. For example, the book uncovers connections between near Whitney Extension Problems and the problem of alignment of data in Euclidean space, an area of considerable interest in computer vision. Written by a highly qualified author, Near Extensions and Alignment of Data in Rn includes information on: Areas of mathematics and statistics, such as harmonic analysis, functional analysis, and approximation theory, that have driven significant advances in the fieldDevelopment of algorithms to enable the processing and analysis of huge amounts of data and data setsWhy and how the mathematical underpinning of many current data science tools needs to be better developed to be usefulNew insights, potential tools, and mathematical techniques to solve problems in Whitney extensions, signal processing, shortest paths, clustering, computer vision, optimal transport, manifold learning, minimal energy, and equidistribution Providing comprehensive coverage of several subjects, Near Extensions and Alignment of Data in Rn is an essential resource for mathematicians, applied mathematicians, and engineers working on problems related to data science, signal processing, computer vision, manifold learning, and optimal transport.
