This volume is a collection of articles on the codification experience of China’s Law of Personality Rights, explaining the design of the Law as well as its innovations.As the second volume of a two-volume set that elucidates the theory, practice, and codification of the Law in China, the book explains the legal advancement of the Law of Personality Rights as a standalone part of the Civil Code of China. This includes innovative legislative thinking, law system arrangements, rule de...

Dynamics of Materials: Experiments, Models and Applications addresses the basic laws of high velocity flow/deformation and dynamic failure of materials under dynamic loading. The book comprehensively covers different perspectives on volumetric law, including its macro-thermodynamic basis, solid physics basis, related dynamic experimental study, distortional law, including the rate-dependent macro-distortional law reflecting strain-rate effect, its micro-mechanism based on dislocation dynam...

This book was originally pubished in 2000. China is the largest developing country in the world and is still heavily based on agriculture. Currently, about 70 per cent of China's total of more than one bilion people live in rural areas, and about half of the total national labour force is involved in agricultural activities. It is clear that agriculture is the foundation for the development of the Chinese national economy. Within agriculture, the grain economy is the most important sector:...
