With the shift of the global economic gravity toward emerging
economies and the roaring economic growth of the past three decades
in China, East Asian catching-up growth strategies have profound
implications for latecomer economies. While there are many
handbooks on entrepreneurship in general, there is no reference on
East Asian entrepreneurship. This is the first of its kinds in the
market. The volume provides a useful reference for those who want
to know East Asian entrepreneurship and business systems. It also
provides many excellent cases and illustrations on the growth of
entrepreneurial firms and the rise of branded products in East
Asia. Policy makers or scholars who are interested in
entrepreneurship, small and medium sized enterprises, Asian
business systems, international business, innovation and technology
management, economic development, strategic management and East
Asian studies would benefit from this volume. The volume contains
two parts. The first part is the key concepts associate with
entrepreneurship and East Asian firm growth and transformation. The
second part presents cases of entrepreneurial firms and their
founders in East Asia, including Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong
Kong and China. With the handbook, scholars, students and policy
makers can grab some basic ideas how entrepreneurs and firms in
East Asia compete and survive in the world market and understand
why and how East Asia economies can emerge as one of the most
dynamic regions in the world. Part I concepts: relating to
Entrepreneurship: Guanxi Catching-up strategies Types of
entrepreneurship Business System Strategic Management Leadership
Part II cases cover variedly from manufacturing to services
industries, and specifically including traditional and newly
corporations ranging from toys, convenient stores, fast fashion,
high-tech, to catering and service. Written by experts in their
respective areas, Handbook of East Asia entrepreneurship is an
excellent review of theories, policies and empirical evidences on
important topics in Entrepreneurship in East Asian economic
development. The book is both a superb teaching tool and a valuable
handbook in development economics.
This corpus-based study investigates the use of nominalization in
English translations of Chinese literary prose through the analysis
of three English versions of the Chinese novel Hong Lou Meng (Dream
of the Red Chamber). Previous studies have explored the relevance
of the cultural and linguistic positioning of different
translators, but thus far no corpus-based study of nominalization
has been undertaken in relation to translator style. This book uses
quantitative and qualitative analyses of the nominalized transform
of finite verbal forms in three Chinese-to-English translations to
distinguish between translator styles, concluding that
nominalization is a key identifier in translations. This book
provides a comprehensive picture of the use of nominalization in
English translations of Chinese literary prose and, more generally,
encourages further study into nominalization in translation.
This book covers all one needs to know about the utility of
endomicroscopy in the diagnosis and management of gastrointestinal
diseases. It provides a comprehensive description of the latest in
diagnostic criteria and advances in the basic science pertaining to
endomicroscopy of the gastrointestinal system. Each chapter
introduces the key histologic, endoscopic, and endomicroscopic
features of common gastrointestinal conditions, with generous
illustration using typical images. The book will provide the
practicing physicians with the principles of practice, and
procedural techniques of endomicroscopy, as well as demonstrate the
bench-to-bedside translational potential of endomicrosocpy in
helping endoscopists manage their patients' gastrointestinal
conditions. This book fills an enormous gap in providing a much
needed atlas in GI endomicroscopic diagnosis. Readers can learn the
diagnostic criteria of various gastrointestinal conditions as
illustrated by high quality endoscopic, endomicroscopic and
histology images. It contains the most extensive review of
currently published studies of endomicroscopy in gastrointestinal
conditions. It has numerous high quality endomicroscopic images
along with high definition endoscopy and histology images
illustrating the common gastrointestinal diseases. It will provide
a platform for standardizing endomicroscopic practice and learning.

This book addresses development laws for axial strain and excess
pore water pressure in silty clay around subway shield tunnels
before and after freezing-thawing when subjected to subway loading,
as well as the effect of freezing-thawing on the dynamic parameters
of silty clay, including the dynamic modulus and damping ratio,
introducing readers to the design and construction of bypasses in
subway tunnels with the artificial freezing method. On this basis,
it then studies the microstructures of silty clay before and after
freezing-thawing cyclic loading by means of scanning electron
microscope tests and mercury intrusion porosimetry tests. Lastly,
the book presents a numerical simulation of the dynamics of silty
clay around subway tunnels before and after thawing. Given its
scope, it offers a valuable reference guide for construction
researchers and designers alike, as well as senior undergraduate
and graduate students at colleges and universities.

This book is divided into fourteen chapters, with 18 appendices as
introduction to prerequisite topological and algebraic knowledge,
etc. The first seven chapters focus on local analysis. This part
can be used as a fundamental textbook for graduate students of
theoretical physics. Chapters 8-10 discuss geometry on fibre
bundles, which facilitates further reference for researchers. The
last four chapters deal with the Atiyah-Singer index theorem, its
generalization and its application, quantum anomaly, cohomology
field theory and noncommutative geometry, giving the reader a
glimpse of the frontier of current research in theoretical physics.
