Описание: How a hundred years of linguistic innovation turned China into one of the most powerful countries of the modern era After a meteoric rise, China today is one of the world's most powerful nations. Just a century ago, it was a crumbling empire, with literacy reserved for the elite few. In Kingdom of Characters, Jing Tsu argues that China's greatest and most daunting challenge was a linguistic one. Just as important as China's technological and industrial advances and political maneuvers was the century-long fight to make the Chinese language--with its many dialects and complex character-based script--accessible to the modern world of global trade and digital technology. Kingdom of Characters follows the bold and cunning innovators who adapted the Chinese language to a world defined by the West and its alphabet: the exiled reformer who risked a death sentence to advocate for Mandarin as a national language, the Chinese Muslim poet who laid the groundwork for Chairman Mao's phonetic writing system, the imprisoned computer engineer who devised input codes for Chinese characters on the lid of a tea cup, among others. Without the advances they enabled, China might never have become the dominating force we know today. The revolution of the Chinese script is just as breathtaking as China's transformation into a capitalist juggernaut, in large part because those linguistic innovations literally enabled China's reinvention. With larger-than-life characters and an unexpected perspective on the major events of China's tumultuous twentieth century, Tsu reveals how language is both a technology to be perfected and a subtle yet potent power to be exercised and expanded.

Описание:
A trailblazing pioneer, acclaimed actress, artist, and designer, Irene Tsu has helped break barriers for Asian-Americans in her long and storied career in Hollywood. Along the way, she's worked (and played) with many legends of the silver screen: Elvis Presley, John Wayne, Doris Day, Jimmy Stewart, Jeff Bridges, Bette Miller, Nick Nolte. Irene knew them all, and many more... some more intimately than others But none more intimately than the Chairman of the Board himself, Frank Sinatra, with whom Irene shared a passionate and adventurous two-year relationship.
Now she finally opens up about her journey from a tumultuous childhood in Shanghai, to New York and dreams of being a prima ballerina, and finally to catching the acting bug and moving to Hollywood. She reveals secrets about those fascinating relationships and the many opportunities that make up her compelling and inspiring tale. More than just a Hollywood tell-all, Irene also shares deeply personal moments and shows how she's always been able to move with the ebb and flow of life, making the most of it and celebrating it like a true water color artist.

Описание: The Tao Te Ching is the most vital and one of the oldest texts of the roots of indigenous Chinese wisdom. It uses a language that is often highly metaphorical and blends poetic expression with clear insight about the nature of the human condition and its sufferance. In eighty-one poetic chapters the Tao Te Ching points directly at the core of "who" or "what" the "self" truly is. It is not offered as a "method" or something that can be "applied in daily life", but is really an expression of the point at which the constant seeking for some-thing more or different ends and so acceptance of what really is then becomes evident. This interpretation draws out the essence of Non-duality/Taoism which the text was originally about and endeavours to serve as a rememberance of our infant days, of the instinct of the Naturalness/ Oneness that is all of life.
