This book comprises a selection of 168 poems from the extant 514 poems by Du Mu (803－852), a distinguished poet of the Tang dynasty in China, and it is the first poetry anthology which translates Du Mu’s work from Chinese into English. The author, Zhang Zhizhong, as a poet and prolific translator, is sensitive to the poetic nuances in Chinese poems, which ensures his success in rendering them into English. Zhang’s view on poetry translation can be summarized as follows: spirit over form. This philosophy is embodied in the present collection. The book will be of interest to those...

A nonparametric bounds approach is proposed in the book for hedonic housing price models partially identified due to sample selection of an unknown form. To construct the bounds, a nonparametric hedonic model that allows spatial correlation and estimators of extreme conditional quantiles are proposed. In contrast to conventional indexes, indexes based on the bounds approach do not suffer from sample selection bias. The approach is used to construct both metro and zip code level price indexes from a sample of over one million transactions from 1996 to 2008 in Los Angeles and San Diego...

Opioid research is one of the multidisciplinary research areas that involve advanced techniques ranging from molecular genetics to neuropharmacology, and from behavioral neuroscience to clinical medicine. In current opioid research, it has become increasingly important to use multiple approaches at molecular, cellular, and system levels for investigations on a specific opio- related target system. That often requires understanding and applying cro- field techniques and methods for the success of one s research projects. Through its broad spectrum of coverage, Opioid Research: Methods and...
