China at the Center focuses on two masterpieces of seventeenth-century map-making that illustrate the exchange of information (and misinformation) between Europe and Asia. The world maps created by Jesuit priests Matteo Ricci (1602) and Ferdinand Verbiest (1674) for the Chinese courts tell fascinating stories about the meeting of two worldviews. They provided Europeans with greater knowledge of China and the Chinese with new ideas about geography, astronomy, and the natural sciences. The maps also show the ways that certain myths were perpetuated, especially as seen in the vivid and imaginative descriptions of the peoples and places of the world and in their depictions of exotic fauna.
This monograph presents a new systematic approach to the continuum modelling of flow phenomena within materials endowed with a complex internal microstructure, such as polymers and liquid crystals. The approach taken in this text is novel in that it combines the principles of Hamiltonian mechanics with those of irreversible thermodynamics. The book begins by outlining the relevant physical prnciples and then goes on to the numerous applications. From their results the authors draw conclusions in relation to the available state-of-the-art knowledge of the corresponding subjects.

This is an innovative study of the techniques of domination, based on financial markets, judicial systems, academia and international relations, across North America and post-Soviet Russia. Ultimately, Oleinik seeks to provide an alternative to mainstream economic analyses of power.
The reputation of Hungarian men of letters has been sadly confined to the national boundaries. The Hungarian literati have for long entertained a myth that the poems of the great lyricist Endre Ady are especially difficult, nay impossible, to translate. This myth is now shattered. Anton N. Nyerges) American diplomat, linguist, poet in his own right, and now professor at Eastern Kentucky University) labored over two decades to prove Endre Ady belongs to the World. He has succeeded in capturing the essence of Endre Ady's poetic genius. With his work the Hungarian Cultural Foundation proudly presents the first comprehensive volume of Endre Ady's poetry in a foreign language.
