Book excerpt: Excerpt from Special Exhibition of Chinese Paintings From the Collection of the Museum: Catalogue The historical records of the development of Chinese pictorial art are voluminous. They have been collected into cyclopadic form in the P'ei Wen Chai, which gives one of the most complete collections to be found of early com ments upon painting, of the names of painters, of colophons attached to paintings, and of other historical documents relating to this subject. The Wang Shih Shu Hua Yuan, published about 1600, is another valuable source of information, but for scholarly accuracy and careful criticism of the T'ang, Sung, and Yuan periods no book excels Ching Ho Shu Hua Fang.

This book was released on 1965-01-02 with total page 1022 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Dr Needham's immense undertaking gathers momentum it has been found necessary to subdivide volumes into parts, each to be bound and published separately. The first part of Volume 4, already published, deals with the physical sciences; the second with the diverse applications of physics in the many branches of mechanical engineering; and the third will deal with civil and hydraulic engineering and nautical technology. With this part of Volume 4, then, we come to the application by the Chinese of physical principles in the control of forces and in the use of power; we cross the frontier separating tools from the machine. We have already noticed that the ancient Chinese concept of chhi (somewhat similar to the pneuma of the Greeks) asserted itself prominently in acoustics; but we discover here that the Chinese tendency to think pneumatically was also responsible for a whole range of brilliant technological achievements, for example, the double-acting piston-bellows, the rotary winnowing-fan, and the water-powered metallurgical blowing-machine (ancestor of the steam-engine); as well as for some extraordinary insights and predictions in aeronautics.
