Hong Kong has far outstripped its chroniclers. Its ceaseless quest to make its better best ensures a perpetual remodeling of the way it lives, works, and functions, so that the skyline is always under reconstruction, the image always shifting. The only constants are the process of change and the excitement this engenders.

Its Architecture is Hong Kong's sublime art, conditioning the way this ever-changing city hes evolved. The thrust is more upward than outward, shaping the vertical profile of this intensely concentrated metropolis and ensuring that, whatever changes are in store, Hong Kong continues building its fabled reputation as the 'Many Splendoured Thing'.

This volume presents a rich selection of anonymous Chinese proverbs, beautifully illustrated, alongside Romanized Chinese versions and English translations, including corresponding calligraphic characters. It highlights the depth of Chinese wisdom beyond Confucius's well-known aphorisms.

Confucius has become the oft-quoted fount of aphorisms and analects far wider and more comprehensive in their didactic scope than any attributed to sages elsewhere in the world. But the real gems of Chinese wisdom lie in the anonymous and ageless proverbs, of which this volume contains a formidable and beautifully illustrated selections.

More than ever before, children are apparently being recognised as social actors and citizens. Yet public policy often involves increased control and surveillance of children. This book explores the contradiction. It shows how different ways of thinking about children produce different childhoods, different public provisions for children (including schools) and different ways of working with children. It argues that how we understand children and make public provision for them involves political and ethical choices.Through case studies and the analysis of policy and practice drawn from a number of countries, the authors describe an approach to public provision for children which they term 'children's services'. They then propose an alternative approach named 'children's spaces', and go on to consider an alternative theory, practice and profession of work with pedagogy and the pedagogue.This ground breaking book will be essential reading for tutors and students on higher education or in-service courses in early childhood, education, play, social work and social policy, as well as practitioners and policy makers in these areas.

Hong Kong's skyline is ever in transition, a flamboyant affirmation of this city's determination to let nothing stand in its way as it forges full steam ahead into the future. Such unquenchable aspirations produce a seemingly endless succession of architectural marvels, but leave too little trace of historical, driving spirit of a metropolis forever creating better and grander manirestations of itself, and as a reminder of whence it came, as enchrined in the few traces of antiquity that survive that headlong progress.

"Deep sleep. . deep sleep. Time is running backwards and you are free to choose a character in the immensity of all time." This intriguing premise sets the stage as Joe Keeton guides hypnotized subjects in search of past personalities. Each session reveals unexpected characters, with subjects gradually adopting voices and attitudes from different times and places. They recount facts and experiences unknown to them in their waking lives, including well-documented historical events and everyday trivia that have been meticulously verified. The seven featured subjects, a mere fraction of those hypnotized by Keeton, vividly illustrate what it was like to live in another era. While they may not speak the language of the time, their detailed accounts create a compelling picture of their past lives. They share personal hopes and fears and describe significant historical events with the immediacy of eyewitnesses. This ability to resurrect the past in the present makes hypnotic regression a fascinating field of study. Peter Moss delves into the implications of these experiences, questioning whether they indicate reincarnation, repressed memories, or genetic memory transfer. He examines how these new identities impact the subjects' lives. Regardless of whether the explanations lie in the supernatural or the workings of the mind, hypnotic regression presents an unforgettable phenomenon that warrants serious consideration.
