This book provides evidence-based guidance on thoracoscopic anatomical pulmonary subsegmentectomy, equipping surgeons to perform all the latest procedures and get the best outcomes. The rapid development of three-dimensional computed tomographic images has made it possible to provide more refined individualized anatomic details and has consequently enabled advances in pulmonary subsegmentectomy. Atlas of Thoracoscopic Anatomical Pulmonary Subsegmentectomy provides an in-depth comprehensive overview and guidance on anatomical pulmonary subsegmentectomy from both theoretical and technical perspectives. The book is divided into two parts: Part I is dedicated to the theoretical background of surgery including surgical subsegmental anatomy, CT three-dimensional reconstruction of pulmonary structures, surgical techniques, and perioperative patient management. Part II presents more than 40 kinds of subsegmentectomies of the left and right lungs, both upper and lower lobes. This book is a valuable resource to thoracic surgeons and physicians interested in thoracic surgery and mini-invasive surgical approaches.

The stepmother plotted to marry her off to a man in a business alliance. She grabbed a man in a flurry on the street and asked, "Do you dare to marry me?"

Jing Baiyuan, who happened to be being ditched by his girlfriend, said, "It just so happens that I brought an account book with me today to register. Just like that, the 23 year old Yin Xiaoxiao was quickly married to the man she had only met twice.

Because of someone else's framing, her peaceful life had plummeted. Her boyfriend betrayed her, her mother died, and she was given to a stranger by her uncle.

That night, she thought that her life had collapsed from then on. However, she had coincidentally met the famous playboy Young Master Jing. She had married him.

Even if her mother-in-law made things difficult for her, and her sister-in-law despised her, she would endure it for the sake of the children in her womb. However, she was framed once again, and was treated as an evil woman who swindled marriage for money!

"Jing Shaofan, please sign this." She handed over a divorce agreement. From then on, she had nothing to do with this man.

Until that day, when she put on her wedding dress once again, when he suddenly broke into the scene of the wedding … Only now did she understand that there were some people that she was destined to never be able to avoid.

Global Tea Breeding: Achievements, Challenges and Perspectives provides a global review on biodiversity and biotechnology issues in tea breeding and selection. The contributions are written by experts from China, India, Kenya, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Turkey, Indonesia, Japan, Bangladesh, Korea, Nigeria, and etc., which countries amount to 90% of the world tea production. This book focuses on the germplasm, breeding and selection of tea cultivars for the production of black, green and Oolong teas from the tea plant, Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze. It can benefit the tea breeders in the global tea industry, as well as the breeders of other woody cash crops like coffee and other sub-tropical fruit trees.

The book comprehensively investigates the relationship between critical urban form and fabric parameters and urban microclimate in the high-rise urban environment that prevails in Asian megacities such as Shanghai. It helps readers gain a deeper understanding of climate-responsive urban design strategies and tactics for effectively mitigating the negative impacts of deteriorating urban thermal environments on pedestrian thermal comfort, outdoor air quality and building energy consumption. It also reviews the latest advances in urban climate research, with a focus on the challenges in terms of outdoor space comfort, health, and livability posed by the high-rise and high-density development in emerging Asian megacities, and proposes an integrated framework in response to the pressing need for microclimate research. It then presents a series of studies on high-rise residential and non-residential urban neighborhoods and districts based on instrumented field study, validated numerical simulation, and spatial analysis using a GIS platform. 

The book includes extensive, valuable experimental data presented in a clear and concise manner. The thermal atlas methodology based on empirical modeling and spatial analysis described is a useful climate-responsive design tool for both urban designer and architects. As such, the book is of particular interest to researchers, professionals, and graduate students in the fields of urban planning and design, building science and urban climatology.
