Story
From the Yangtze to the Yellow River, China is traversed by great waterways, which have defined its politics and ways of life for centuries. Water has been so integral to China's culture, economy, and growth and development that it provides a window on the whole sweep of Chinese history. In The Water Kingdom, renowned writer Philip Ball opens that window to offer an epic and powerful new way of thinking about Chinese civilization. Water, Ball shows, is a key that unlocks much of Chinese culture.

Annelise Heinz narrates the history of this game to show how it has created a variety of meanings, among them American modernity, Chinese American heritage, and Jewish American women's culture.

Story
There is an ancient Chinese proverb that states, "Two tigers cannot share the same mountain." However, in East Asia, there are three tigers on that mountain: China, Japan, and Korea, and they have a long history of turmoil and tension with each other. In his latest entertaining and thought-provoking narrative travelogue, Michael Booth sets out to discover how deep, really, the enmity is between these three "tiger" nations and what prevents them from making peace.

Story
In 221 BCE, the Qin state conquered its neighbours and created the first unified Chinese empire in history. So began the imperial era, where dynasties claiming divine assent ruled for more than 2000 years. Borders shifted, and emperors struggled to exert control over every region of their territories. Elites held that they were inheritors of a rich, pre-imperial culture, while their society produced world-changing inventions such as the compass, printing, gunpowder and the gun. Imperial China itself was altered as it came into contact with others through trade, exploration and war.

Story
Zwischen den Weltmächten China und USA tobt ein Kampf um die technologische Vorherrschaft.. Esgeht um Künstliche Intelligenz, Superchips und -computer, neue Medikamente und Behandlungen, um selbstfahrende Autos und Flüge zum Mond und Mars. Aber es geht auch um Killerdrohnen oder kämpfende Roboter. Chinaexperte Wolfgang Hirn zeigt, dass in vielen Tech-Bereichen China in den vergangenen Jahren gewaltig aufgeholt hat und in manchen gar führend ist, und er fragt: Kann Europa bei diesem Duell mithalten und eventuell seine technologische Souveränität zurückholen?

Staid, responsible Elodie Buchanan is the eldest of 10 sisters growing up in a small English market town in 1861.

Story
Growing up in rural China during Mao's Cultural Revolution, Da Chen was part Horatio Alger, part Holden Caulfeld, befriending both a gang of young thugs, as well as an elegant, older Chinese woman who teaches him English - and opens the door to a new life. Chen's remarkable story of triumph is filled with the universal qualities that distinguish the very best memoirs as it masterfully recounts the concerns of childhood that transcend both time and place.
