China Trade Agreements

China Trade Agreements

Thomas C.W. Chiu

Routledge
2018
sidottu
This book, first published in 1988, examines the nature of trade agreements with Chinese companies, and is divided into three parts which are arranged in accordance with the stages of development: from a trade talk to the final stage of a contract. At the time, China trade was mainly a kind of trade involving China traders and respective Chinese authorities, as Chinese businessmen were government officials. For this reason, paperwork such as the Memorandum of Discussion and Letter of Intent, while of no legal binding effect, were of vital importance to the trade system.

Subs, Guns, Honor;: Lt. W.H. Jaques of Little Boar's Head, NH

On the surface, this book floats along as the fascinating biography of W.H. Jaques, 1867 graduate of Annapolis. He heads to sea, teaches on a school ship, advises a president on weaponry, then goes to study big-gun-making in England, France, and Russia. When Congress asks him to tell them how great our ships are, he says, "Not good at all." Jaques barely loses a tough fight with Teddy Roosevelt to win the position of Assistant Secretary of the Navy, becoming instead close friend of Navy Secretary William Chandler. They both marry daughters of New Hampshire Senator Hale, who single-handedly fought slavery. Chandler's bride was engaged to John Wilkes Booth. Lt. Jaques moves on to head Bethlehem Steel's big gun and armor division, then takes over the Holland Submarine Company, even traveling to Europe to try and sell a few. He goes throughout the world lecturing as he shows hundreds of stereopticon slides.Below the surface biography, where submarines lurk, the book is an equally fascinating study of the U.S. Navy as it overpowers the nation's landscape and seascape with its raw power. Navy admirals command vessels on trips all over the world - Japan, Singapore, Chile, Cuba. One ship sends a Navy lieutenant up the Congo River, another sends a party up the Amazon. Trouble in Brazil? Just send ships there with crews of young grads from Annapolis. Polar exploration? Jaques' school-teaching friend De Long dies in the Arctic, to have the lieutenant act as his pallbearer but also welcome a survivor to New York Harbor with a bear-hug.Below the surface biography and the sub-level of Navy history is a third level, not quite at ocean-bottom. It presents a great period of technology in the 1800s blossoming forth - a boy canal expert from Sweden building locomotives, then creating a ship whose Peacemaker big gun explodes and kills part of the U.S. Cabinet - John Holland running away from Ireland to build a sub that struggles not to sink - Holland's competitor Simon Lake proudly inventing a submarine on wheels - Jaques urging that nickel be added to steel to make it so much stronger.This book turns the world we have come to count on upside down. Japanese in internment camps? No, they are invited to go to school at Annapolis in the mid-1800s. Japan our enemy? President Grant visits that country with great excitement after our Civil War and Japanese show him great love -- Jaques advises them how to win their war of 1894-5 - awed Japanese visit President Grant's grave as Jaques provides them with a very welcome carriage ride, then shows Japanese guests his submarine. Russians as enemies to the U.S.? No, their sailors float into New York Harbor with our applause as they bolster the North's sagging spirits during the Civil War - these Russian men voyage up the Hudson River while residents high up on the cliffs wave their handkerchiefs - Russian sailors take a tour of Niagara Falls and love it. Lt. Jaques shows Russian dignitaries famed Cramp Shipyard, then gives them an exhaustive tour they love of Bethlehem Steel as they roll through the factory on railroad cars.A stunning biography of W.H. Jaques; an all-aboard tour of Navy ships proudly sailing world seas; a wide-ranging study of 19th century inventions and the men who dared create them. Three books in one - that is what the author has built into this work for you. He has created a shell that explodes in illumination of the sea that Jaques cherished and the country he helped protect.

Early Experience, the Brain, and Consciousness

Early Experience, the Brain, and Consciousness

Thomas C. Dalton; Victor W. Bergenn

Psychology Press
2007
sidottu
This new book examines the interrelationship between neuroscience and developmental science to help us understand how children differ in their capacity to benefit from their early motor and cognitive experiences. In so doing, it helps us better understand how experience affects brain growth and a child’s capacity to learn. In this interdisciplinary book, the authors review the most significant research findings and historical scientific events related to early experience, the brain, and consciousness. Authors Dalton and Bergenn propose a new theory to help demonstrate the crucial roles of attention and memory in motor and perceptual development. The goal is to help readers better understand the differences between how individuals with normal and dysfunctional brains process information and how this impacts their ability to learn from experience.Early Experience, the Brain, and Consciousness opens with a critical examination of why motor and perceptual development should be understood as interrelated phenomena. The authors then introduce their new theory that argues that neurodevelopment is an emergent process that enables infants to respond to the challenge of integrating complex motor and cognitive functions. Subsequent chapters examine the research that suggests that the sequence of events before and after birth account for divergent neuropsychological outcomes. The authors then demonstrate how the acquisition and early use of language conform to the same principles as those involved in the construction of motor skills. This perspective views perception and cognition as complex forms of communication and memory, rooted in preverbal forms of categorization. The book concludes with a review of strategies to help young children exploit the brain’s multiple pathways of retrieval for more efficient learning. The authors’ hope is that this new theory can be used to understand why children with brain disorders fail to attain the threshold of conscious control to benefit from their learning experiences.Intended for researchers and advanced students in developmental and educational psychology, neuro- psychology and biology, cognitive neuroscience, and pediatrics interested in the effect of experientially-based developmental processes on the emergence of mind and consciousness.

This research guide was first concieved to fulfill multiple needs of the research team of the Documentary Relations of the Southwest (DRSW) project at the Arizona State Museum. In performing research tasks, it became evident that reference material was scattered throughout scores of books and monographs. A single complete source book was simply not available. Hence, the editors of the DRSW project compiled this guide. The territory under study comprises all of northern Mexico in colonial times.

Isaiah 40–66

Isaiah 40–66

Mark W. Elliott; Thomas C. Oden

IVP Academic
2019
nidottu
No book of the Old Testament is more frequently quoted in the New than Isaiah, and no portion of Isaiah is more frequently quoted in the New than the typologically fertile soil of Isaiah 40–66. Still, as interpreted by the fathers, Isaiah presents a message that is far more soteriological than christological, leading readers to a deeper understanding of God's judgment and salvation. Isaiah 40–66 provides us with the closest thing the Old Testament has to offer regarding a systematic theology. The excerpts included in this Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture volume offer us a rich array of differing styles, principles, and theological emphases, from Theodoret of Cyr to Eusebius and Procopius, to Cyril of Alexandria, Jerome and Augustine. Readers will be enriched by the wide-ranging selections, some of which are translated here into English for the first time.

Distinctive in form, content, and style, the epistle to the Hebrews offers a profound high Christology and makes an awe-inspiring contribution to our understanding of Jesus as our High Priest. The earliest extant commentary on the letter comes to us in thirty-four homilies from John Chrysostom. These homilies serve to anchor the excerpts chosen by the editors of this volume because of their unique place in the history of interpretation. In addition to being the first comprehensive commentary on the letter, they deeply influenced subsequent interpretation in both the East and the West, and their rhetorical eloquence has long been acknowledged. As in other Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture volumes, the excerpts chosen range widely over geography and time, from Justin Martyr and Clement of Rome in the late first and early second century to Bede the Venerable, Isaac of Nineveh, Photius, and John of Damascus in the eighth and ninth centuries. The Alexandrian tradition is well represented in Clement of Alexandria, Origen, Athanasius, Didymus, and Cyril of Alexandria, while the Antiochene tradition is represented in Ephrem the Syrian, Theodore of Mopsuestia, Severian of Gabala, and Theodoret of Cyr. Italy and North Africa in the West are represented by Ambrose, Cassiodorus, and Augustine, while Constantinople, Asia Minor and Jerusalem in the East are represented by the Great Cappadocians—Basil the Great, Gregory of Nazianzus, and Gregory of Nyssa—Eusebius, Cyril of Jerusalem, and Jerome. This volume offers a rich treasure of ancient wisdom from Hebrews for the enrichment of the church today.
