Adopting a novel, comparative approach, Chen adeptly investigates various legal tools employed to regulate religious fraud in China, Taiwan and Hong Kong. Through a systematic survey of court judgments, he identifies the surprising convergences among the religious fraud regulations across the three jurisdictions. He further employs public choice analysis to tease out the reasons behind these often unconstitutional religious fraud regulations, and highlights the complicity of individuals who otherwise advocate for liberal democratic values. With its wealth of legal and political analysis, the book critically interjects in the global inquiry of religious freedom and democratic backsliding.

This progressive book is an important touchstone for scholars and students in Asian studies, law and religion, criminal law and justice, and law and society.

This book focuses on the Jet Transport (JT) technique and gives a systematic introduction on its theory development, algorithm implementation, and in particular, the applications in the field of astronautics including uncertainty propagation, filtering, as well as guidance and control. It features on the combination of mathematical theory and engineering applications, making the technique to be understood and mastered straightforwardly. Moreover, the JT-based methods proposed in the book offer a new and ingenious way to some classical problems.

Given its breadth of coverage, the book offers a valuable reference guide for researchers and engineers interested in the JT methodology including theory and applications.
