This book starts with detailed community-based poverty-alleviation cases and focuses on several important aspects in this field to demonstrate the intervention methods, theoretical paradigms, and intervention models of poverty-alleviation social work. Based on the introduction to the characteristics, theoretical foundation, and practical model of community-based poverty-alleviation social work, this book elaborates the specific operation processes from the perspectives of community interve...

This open access handbook, Ten Crises systematically traces the economic historyof China from 1949 to 2020, unravelling the complex domestic and global factorsleading to the cyclical crises identified by WEN and his research team, andexamining the corresponding counteracting policies and measures by thegovernment to resolve or defer the crises. The book offers profound insights intoChina’s endeavours and predicaments on the path of moderniza...

This series of books focuses on the internal wave hydrodynamic effects on submersibles. As the first book in the series, it specifically studies the patterns and mechanisms of interaction between internal waves and submersibles. Internal waves are widely-present in the stratified ocean and are a type of nonlinear, large-amplitude wave phenomenon. Submersibles are highly likely to encounter internal waves during underwater operations, which can severely affect the stability and hydrodynamic...

There is an increasing tendency to integrate optical communication with wireless communication to satisfy continuously emerging (new) data communication demands. Thus, optical-wireless-integrated access networks and transmission systems, as well as LED-based visible light communication are attracting ever increasing research interest. Digital signal processing (DSP) is one new technology for optical transmission. As such this book is designed to pave the way to the better understanding of ...

On the basis of in-depth interviews, it comprehensively assesses the organisational culture of Chinese universities, recurring problems in international scholars’ cross-cultural adaptation processes, and the coping strategies they employ in response.The book focus on the real lives and working experiences of international scholars in China, ...

A collection of short-stories peeking into the lives of three twenty-somethings in the midst of their respective quarter life crises. A mix of autobiography and fiction, the authors' raw storytelling explores how love, personhood, and a lot of trauma shapes a person of five and twenty.

This book comprehensively and systematically demonstrates the theory and practice of designing, synthesizing and improving the performance of fuels. The contents range from polycyoalkane fuels, strained fuels, alky-diamondoid fuels, hypergolic and nanofluid fuels derived from fossil and biomass. All the chapters together clearly describe the important aspects of high-energy-density fuels including molecular design, synthesis route, physiochemical properties, and their application in improv...

The purpose of writing this book is to provide the latest research findings in ground control techniques in mining engineering, especially the rock bolting techniques. Since rock bolts are widely used in mining engineering and civil engineering, they are significant in guaranteeing the safety of underground openings. However, instability issues still occur with the rock bolting technique. Therefore, it is valuable to understand the exact load transfer mechanism of rock bolts. This book sum...

Improper disposal of plastics increases micro-plastic discharge and waste to the environment. It causes growing global concern about the environmental and public health impacts of related byproducts. This book presents a safe process based on application of microbial cultures from different sources for the degradation of plastic waste to harmless products.The book begins by introducing the problem of plastic waste and its environmental impact, then moves on to describing microbial ...

The necessity of feeding humankind, to save the planet, and the promotion of welfare for people living on agriculture are three main reasons for peasant agriculture. This raises the question of the conditions necessary for an efficient peasant agriculture and that of the necessity of searching for real alternatives and not only an accommodation of the capitalist system. This book focuses on the situation of peasant agriculture in various countries of Asia.
