As with many other languages, Mandarin Chinese exhibits a rich variety of ways in expressing the arguments of the predicator in a sentence. Unlike other languages, such variation is typically devoid of any formal marking. Previous attempts in explaining such phenomena usually focus on the syntax as an explanatory tool. This book argues that a large majority of such argument structure phenomena are better accounted for by recourse to enriched representations in lexical semantics. Drawing insights from conceptual semantics, cognitive semantics, Generative Lexicon, construction grammar and formal syntax, this book constitutes the first attempt at a comprehensive account of lexical semantic issues in Mandarin Chinese.

This book provides state-of-the-art information on gene essentiality screenings in a wide variety of organisms, i.e. screening for protein-coding genes and other genomic elements that are required by an organism to survive under specific conditions. With a focus on the two techniques that have revolutionized the field, the collection begins with chapters employing CRISPR/Cas9-based approaches followed by Tn-seq-based approaches, but later chapters also delve into other techniques for exploring essential genes, such as bioinformatics methods. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Comprehensive and authoritative, Essential Genes and Genomes: Methods and Protocols is an ideal guide for researchers attempting to strip genetics down to its fundamentals.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), with a history of thousands of years, is the crystallization of the ancient Chinese people's experience in their struggle against diseases. It is also an integral part of their splendid culture. Under the influence and direction of classic Chinese philosophies, it has undergone long-term medical practice and infiltrated into, as well as absorbed from, other subjects at that time, thus gradually evolving into a unique medical theoretical system that contributed significantly to the health care of the Chinese people and the prosperity of the Chinese nation. This 7-volume set comprehensively covers the main components of TCM, such as Basic Theory, Diagnosis, Prescription, Chinese Materia Medica, Tui Na, Acupuncture and Moxibustion.

This book aims at the new opportunities, development connotation, problems and potential risks of the Maritime Silk Road in the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), as well as the problems of insufficient case samples, incomplete assessment information, uncertain decision-making knowledge, etc., Some new methods and technical such as dynamic Bayesian networks, intuitionistic fuzzy sets, group decision-making, information flow, are introduced to build an indicator system and mathematical model for risk assessment and emergency management. Aim at the impacts and hazards of extreme weather such as tropical cyclones, strong winds, waves, low visibility, and rising sea levels in the sea area along the Maritime Silk Road, research are conducted on risk assessment and emergency management of disaster environment such as geographical environmental characteristics, climate change scenarios, islands, straits and ports. This book can be used as a reference for researchers in the fields of atmosphere, ocean, environmental ecology, transportation, natural resources, disaster prevention and reduction, emergency management, and related university teachers.
