《道德经》解读已经是一个热门话题，据说多达一千多种，汗牛充栋了。笔者比较喜欢古人王弼、苏辙的注释，但玩味之余仍不能尽兴，又没有精力穷搜碧落寻找真理，却也有一些自己的思考和想法，加上朋友们鼓励，干脆且自说自话罢，于是有了基于《易经》和心理学视角的对道德经的解读。书稿最初的形成采用口授微课形式，经整理每周一章陆续发表于笔者的公众号www-ymxl-net（西山心理工作室），现汇集通稿后整理成书。本书拥有以下特色：1、追慕老子的保守主义情怀，但又正视无可挽回的世事发展变化既成事实，在此前提下探索老子智慧之于普世价值的贡献及实用性；2、认为老子以"无名之朴"为道德核心价值，在道德灌注中笔者提炼出"初心"、"雏形"两个概念作为"无名之朴"的内核与载体。后人可以通过妙观雏形领悟初心意蕴，通过回归初心解决发展偏差和分歧；3、用《易经》的八卦模型展读"恍惚""倏忽""生畜""亭毒"等对称的范畴，找到真义，使解读更加逻辑清晰；4、解读甲骨文象形文字的象征意义，以探索《道德经》重要字词的先秦古义，从而挖掘老子原旨，...

Algae are sunlight-driven cell factories, and can efficiently absorb CO2 and convert light energy to chemical energy such as lipid, starch and other carbohydrates and release O2. Algal feedstock is a promising resource for bioproduct production, given its high photosynthetic efficiency for producing biomass compared to conventional crops. Microalgae can be used for flue-gas and wastewater bioremediation. This book highlights recent breakthroughs in the multidisciplinary areas of algal biot...

A thorough examination of lab-on-a-chip circuit-level operations to improve system performanceA rapidly aging population demands rapid, cost-effective, flexible, personalized diagnostics. Existing systems tend to fall short in one or more capacities, making the development of alternatives a priority. CMOS Integrated Lab-on-a-Chip System for Personalized Biomedical Diagnosis provides insight toward the solution, with a comprehensive, multidisciplinary refer...

Multi-agent coordination is an emerging engineering It has been inspired by the observations and descriptions of collective behavior in nature, such as fish schooling, birds flocking and insects swarming. The advantages of multi-agent coordination include: it can reduce cost and complexity from hardware platform to software and algorithms; in addition, multi-agent systems are capable of many tasks which could not be effectively performed by a single-robot system, for example, the surveilla...
