The ascent of China's economy over the past thirty years may be one of the moreremarkable happenings in human history. Few understand it. Those outside Chinaconsider the massive changes a mystery. Those inside China have been challengedwith taking more than 1.3 billion people from an agrarian existence into the modernworld, and in the face of complex economics involving extreme conflicts of interest.Nobody ever did it before; nobody will ever do it again. Given the convulsive upheavalsrequired, the difficulty of the task has been, and remains, hard to imagine.This book describes those upheavals and that process over the years from 1978 to2008. It represents a remarkable achievement in condensing a welter of events andchanges down to the bare essentials. In summing up a period of history, it also servesas a query about what is to come next. Where are the convulsive changes leading, notonly for China, but for the world.Every stretch of history has its own internal logic. The reader of this book may beconfronted
汉字由人而生，是人的见识和智慧的外在表达。中国人的情感，大抵都逃不过汉字的表述。阐释汉字的目的，就是为了满足好学深思的人进一步深入认识汉字的文化需求。 但脱离文字学材料与理论，根据各自知识背景和表达需求加以解释，带有随意性，甚至有些是错误的汉字说解。 本书通过开放性设问引导读者进一步思考汉字阐释理论实践的可能性和误区。在传统文化热的当下，本书不失为一部出色的大众了解、理解和实践汉字阐释方法的基础读物。

We do welcome teachers with "China dreams" come to us from all parts of the world, and, with joint efforts, we all can realize "One dream."It took Leslie Jeanneret, a specialist in education, half a century to get her China dream realized; it was 11 years before Prof. Ruth Hayhoe, a well-known educator who began her teaching career in Hong Kong in 1967, set her foot on mainland China in 1978; And, Elissa McRae, who had never thought she would go to China, realized her dream to teach in a Chinese classroom within 6 months...

Ihave had the pleasure of knowing Francesco Scolozzifor 10 years. During that time, he has travelled to Chinaseveral times annually, freauentlv staving up to 4 monthsat a time. No matter where he goes to in China, whether itbe Beijing, Dalian or another city, he is comfortable walkingalone on the street, or taking the bus or subway, not differentfrom other Chinese residents except that he does not speak thelanguage.
The complexion of the empresses attending to state affairs was fairly complicated. Some had to represent their sons because the emperor was really too young to rule a dynasty; some, due to their ambition for monopolizing power, deliberately supported and enthroned a young emperor who could be easily controlled by them after their husbands died, thus to gain the real power of the court. Some empresses even disenthroned the crown prince designated by their husbands after his death or had the new emperor killed to gain control of the state for themselves. Some regent empresses certainly played an important role in stabilizing the dynasty; but others, however, brought a lot of troubles and crises to the dynasty due to their high ambition and low quality.
