Maps, black and white photographic plates, viii + 370pp, bibliography, notes, index, very good hardback copy in dustjacket. Signed and dated by the author on the title page. Details of the event in Hong Kong organised by the Royal Asiatic Society at which this copy was signed loosely inserted. The great city of Beijing, capital of China from the ninth century, and given its form for five hundred years by the Ming Dynasty, was for a millennium one of the most extraordinary places on earth. At a time when London, Paris, or Rome had only several hundred thousand residents, Beijing held over a million. This book tells the history of this great city, and through it's history provides a highly engaging summary history of China. In the summer of 1997, President Jiang Zemin made a decision to destroy the old city. There was no announcement, no explanation given, nor any attempt made to justify his decision. Even those working as architects only became aware of what was happening when it was already too late. Expertly moving between historical analysis and reportage, Jasper Becker describes the impact of this systematic destruction. This is a unique telling of the history of Beijing that encapsulates both the grandeur of its creation and the tragedy of its current transformation.

Reprint, stapled. Condition: Gut. pp.1-32. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of the ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - With dedication by the author to W.Haase. - Author's name underlined on cover, otherwise good and very clean. - Abstract: Despite the near universal desire for happiness, relatively little philosophy has been done to determine what happiness means. In this paper I examine happiness (in the long-term sense), and argue that it is best understood in terms of tranquillity. This is not merely contentment. Rather, happiness requires reflection the kind of reflection characteristic of philosophy. Happiness is the product of correctly assessing its conditions, and like any assessment, one can be mistaken, and thus mistaken about whether one is happy. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550.
