Download or read book Shanghai Business Travel Guide written by Lawrence Frank Deangelo and published by Business International. This book was released on 2006-01-15 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An e-book that contains information from experienced Shanghai travelers on travel, hotels, entertainment, health issues, safety, and business etiquette. This Shanghai Business Travel Guide assumes you are a North American businessperson traveling directly from North America to Shanghai, China. The Guide's goal is to provide you with practical and current information that will allow you to plan and execute your trip most effectively. The Guide contains information written by business people who have lived, worked, and played in Shanghai. The Guide is different from most China travel guides, which are written for tourists not business people and are not frequently updated. Travel guides usually contain glowing reports of life in a particular country; we tell it like it is! This Guide helps you prepare for your trip by advising you how much to budget for your trip, how to get a visa, and what vaccinations you should have. We suggest the best hotels and help you find your way from the airport to your hotel. Of course the main purpose of your trip is business, and understanding Chinese business etiquette may mean the difference between a successful trip and a failure. We explain how the Chinese conduct business and guide you through business meetings and dinners. The Guide is packed with advice from experienced Shanghai travelers on all the things we love about the city and many of the problems we have encountered. We tell you how to power up your laptop and where to find the best restaurants and bars and what to do in an emergency. The Guide is packed with hyperlinks to relevant sites and even has a chapter on critical Chinese phrases you will need. And you can hear a native speaker recitethe phrases. This is an electronic document that will be emailed to you (Be sure to include your email address with your order.) The document is in PDF format and can be read with free Adobe Acrobat Reader software (www.adobe.com).

Download or read book Field Guide to the Birds of East Asia written by Mark Brazil and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-08-22 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first single volume guide ever devoted to the eastern Asian avifauna. The eastern Asian region, centring especially on the major islands off the continental coast (including Japan and Taiwan) and the immediately adjacent areas of the Asian continent from Kamchatka in the north and including the Korean Peninsula are an important centre of endemism. Birds endemic to this region include representatives of many of the major families, from the world's largest eagle - Steller's Sea Eagle - to the tiny Formosan Firecrest. The east Asian continental coast and the offshore islands also form one of the world's major international bird migration routes, especially for waterfowl, shorebirds and raptors, while the east Asian continental mainland itself is home to a wide range of species little known to western ornithologists such as Scaly-sided Merganser, Oriental Stork and Mugimaki Flycatcher. The guide features the most up-to-date text available, which, in conjunction with extensive colour plates throughout, facilitates the field identification of all of the species known from the region. Colour distribution maps enhance the text by providing a visual analysis of the summer, winter and migratory ranges of all species.

Download or read book Carbon Technocracy written by Victor Seow and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2023-05-12 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A forceful reckoning with the relationship between energy and power through the history of what was once East Asia’s largest coal mine. The coal-mining town of Fushun in China’s Northeast is home to a monstrous open pit. First excavated in the early twentieth century, this pit grew like a widening maw over the ensuing decades, as various Chinese and Japanese states endeavored to unearth Fushun’s purportedly “inexhaustible” carbon resources. Today, the depleted mine that remains is a wondrous and terrifying monument to fantasies of a fossil-fueled future and the technologies mobilized in attempts to turn those developmentalist dreams into reality. In Carbon Technocracy, Victor Seow uses the remarkable story of the Fushun colliery to chart how the fossil fuel economy emerged in tandem with the rise of the modern technocratic state. Taking coal as an essential feedstock of national wealth and power, Chinese and Japanese bureaucrats, engineers, and industrialists deployed new technologies like open-pit mining and hydraulic stowage in pursuit of intensive energy extraction. But as much as these mine operators idealized the might of fossil fuel–driven machines, their extractive efforts nevertheless relied heavily on the human labor that those devices were expected to displace. Under the carbon energy regime, countless workers here and elsewhere would be subjected to invasive techniques of labor control, ever-escalating output targets, and the dangers of an increasingly exploited earth. Although Fushun is no longer the coal capital it once was, the pattern of aggressive fossil-fueled development that led to its ascent endures. As we confront a planetary crisis precipitated by our extravagant consumption of carbon, it holds urgent lessons. This is a groundbreaking exploration of how the mutual production of energy and power came to define industrial modernity and the wider world that carbon made.
