Jak daleko jsou lidé schopni zajít, aby se mohli pomstít? Když je v přehradě Serjong kousek od zapadlé korejské vesnice nalezena mrtvá mladá dívka, policie okamžitě zahájí vyšetřování. Současně s tím se tři muži ocitají uprostřed důmyslné hry na kočku a myš. Dívčin otec Jongdže a dva zaměstnanci ostrahy z vodohospodářské správy mají ohledně oné noci každý co skrývat. Všichni se snaží vypátrat, co se dívce stalo, aniž by prozradili svá pečlivě střežená tajemství. Otevřená konfrontace na přehradě vyústí v obrovskou tragédii,...

Teachers' Schools and the Making of the Modern Chinese Nation-State is an innovative account of educational and social transformations in politically tumultuous early twentieth-century China. It focuses on the unique nature of Chinese teachers' schools, which bridged Chinese and Western ideals, and the critical role that these schools played in the changes sweeping Chinese society. It also documents their role in the empowerment of women and the production of grassroots forces leading to the Communist Revolution.

This extraordinary memoir tells the story of one man's experience of the wars of Viet Nam from the time he was old enough to be aware of war in the 1940s until his departure for America 15 years after the collapse of South Viet Nam in 1975. Nguyen Cong Luan was born and raised in small villages near Ha Noi. He grew up knowing war at the hands of the Japanese, the French, and the Viet Minh. Living with wars of conquest, colonialism, and revolution led him finally to move south and take up the cause of the Republic of Viet Nam, exchanging a life of victimhood for one of a soldier. His...

In the last few decades, multiscale algorithms have become a dominant trend in large-scale scientific computation. Researchers have successfully applied these methods to a wide range of simulation and optimization problems. This book gives a general overview of multiscale algorithms; applications to general combinatorial optimization problems such as graph partitioning and the traveling salesman problem; and VLSICAD applications, including circuit partitioning, placement, and VLSI routing. Additional chapters discuss optimization in reconfigurable computing, convergence in multilevel...
