The Future of Taiwan (1980)

Revival

"Patient readers will be rewarded with a better and deeper understanding of the most extraordinary transformation in modern economic history." - The Wall Street Journal

"As China is sure to become a hotly debated focal point in the presidential election, this book, with its emphasis on markets and history, becomes of paramount importance." - The Washington Times

"Anyone curious as to how China became the world's second biggest economy should read this interesting book." - The LSE Review of Books

"This is a major contribution to the whole literature on economic change as well as on China. Nowhere in all of the literature on economic change and development that I know is there such a detailed study of the fumbling efforts of a society to evolve and particularly one that had as long and as far to go as China did." - Douglass C. North, 1993 Nobel laureate in Economics

"Ronald Coase, now 100 years plus, and Ning Wang have written a compelling and exhaustive commentary about China's fitful transition from Socialism under Mao to today's distinctive capitalist economy. No student of China or socialism can afford to miss this volume." - Richard Epstein, University of Chicago Law School

"This book is one of the greatest works in economics and in studies of China, not only for today, but for the future." - Chenggang Xu, University of Hong Kong

"Coase finds a nation whose philosophy and policy have reflected the same simple principle - 'seeking truth from facts' - that has inspired his own path-breaking analyses of firms, markets and law. A fascinating and exceptionally thought-provoking account of how China, repeatedly seeking more efficient socialism, found itself turning capitalist." - Stephen Littlechild, Emeritus Professor, University of Birmingham, and Fellow, Judge Business School, University of Cambridge

"This book provides a highly learned, stimulating and informative argument on the role of the constitutionalist 'ulama in the Iranian constitutional revolution, and the usuli theories that underpinned their understanding and arguments on the matter. It is thus a most significant contribution to the literature on constitutionalism and the Revolution." - Vanessa Martin, Department of History, Royal Holloway, University of London

From the reviews:
"It is only twenty-three years since Benoit Mandelbrot published his famous picture of what is now called the Mandelbrot Set. The graphics were state of the art, though now they may seem primitive. But how that picture has changed our views of the mathematical and physical universe! Fractals, a term coined by Mandelbrot, are now so ubiquitous in the scientific conscience that it is difficult to remember the psychological shock of their arrival. What we see in this book is a glimpse of how Mandelbrot helped change our way of looking at the world. It is not just a book about a particular class of problems, but contains a view on how to approach the mathematical and physical universe. This view is certain not to fade, but to be part of the working philosophy of the next mathematical revolution, wherever it may take us. So read the book, look at the beautiful pictures that continue to fascinate and amaze, and enjoy! "&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; --From the foreword by Peter W Jones, Yale University 
Praise for Mandelbrot, Benoit B, Fractals and Chaos
American Scientist
"Manderlbrot brings together 25 papers from the past 25 years. Many of them are related in one way or another to the famous inkblot figure to which Mandelbrot’s name is now firmly affixed. Of historical interest are some early images of this fractal object, produced with a crude dot-matrix printer. A few items in the collection have not been previously published, and all are accompanied by feisty commentary."
"This is the fourth volume of Mandelbrot’s Selecta, comprising edited reprints of the author’s papers. … One chapter has been written specifically to help the non-expert appreciate the rest of the book. … accessible to a wide readership. It provides a fascinating insight into the author’s journey of seeing and discovering as the early pictures of the Mandelbrot set started to reveal a whole new world. It gives a feeling for his philosophy and approach of experimental mathematics … ." (Kenneth Falconer, NATURE, Vol. 430, July1, 2004)
"The well-illustrated book combines hard-to-find early papers by the author with additional chapters that describe the historical background and context. Key topics are quadratic dynamics and its Julia and Mandelbrot sets, nonquadratic dynamics, Kleinian limit sets, and the Minkowski measure." (Zentralblatt für Didaktik der Mathematik, Juli, 2004)
"Mandelbrot’s book is a scientific, philosophic and pictorial treatise at the same time and it is one of the rare specimens of serious mathematics books that can be read and re-read at many different levels. … The style is what one would call ‘truly Mandelbrotian’, a mixture of hard science, often with a personal touch … . a book that will be as important for the scientific community … as it will be appealing to a general informed audience." (René L. Schilling, The Mathematical Gazette, March, 2005)
"Benoit Mandelbrot has produced a comprehensive, well-presented review of essential topics … . All chapters are assembled in a way that the overall mix becomes a very well integrated source of know-how … . The author made a serious and effective effort to realize a book that contains more than history, more than mathematics … . it is an excellent book also for supporting courses at University, PhD and Post doc level. Moreover, it is indispensable for scientists … ." (Biomedical Engineering OnLine, May, 2005)
"Chaotic and fractal work has become popular among the mathematicians. … The introductions to reprinted classical texts … . illustrate how a theory emerges, how answers create new questions, and how progress is made. The reader will be grateful not only for these historical explanatory remarks … . Collectively they give a compelling account of how a new branch of mathematics was created by the author. This delightful book makes good reading." (Helmut Kirchner, Pure and Applied Geophysics, Vol. 162, 2005)
"Benoit Mandelbrot, an award winning, academic nomad … is credited with changing the way scientists in many fields, look at the world. … founded the influential fields of fractal and multifractal geometry. … The book is well populated with black and white graphical computer outputs of fractals and conceptual illustrations. Never before published illustrations … are included. … Recommended for all university science libraries." (James A. Buczynski, E-Streams, Vol. 7 (10), 2004)
"This book is a collection of early papers by Benoit B. Mandelbrot, combined with additional papers … . The reader surely will appreciate the number of pictures and illustrations … . The book will be valued by both mathematicians and physicists who are interested in the field. It is written in a clear and straightforward way whilst pointing out lots of applications. A non-mathematician will appreciate the minimal number of formulas … . the mathematician’s eye will be pleased by the exactness of the presentation." (EMS Newsletter, December, 2005)
"This book contains early papers by Benoit Mandelbrot, as well as additional chapters … . the mathematical papers are extremely interesting, and a collection … is really a treat, but what I found even more fascinating (and more entertaining to read, even for non-specialists) are the papers dealing with background, historical notes, bibliographical notes, commentaries etc. … this is a wonderful book for a large group of readers … . Reading this book was a pleasure." (Mihaela Poplicher, MathDL, January, 2005)
"Benoit Mandelbrot was 80 last year; and it is 25 years since he first saw the ubiquitious set that bears his name. … This book is a selection of articles from the 1980s and early 1990s, together with previously unpublished material from the same period … . The informal mix of mathematics and commentary in Mandelbrot’s book provides a fascinating insight into his motivation and method." (Shaun Bullett, Times Higher Education Supplement, August, 2005)
"A scientist becomes rarely the historian of his own work, however here it is the case. … Mandelbrot comments upon each of the selected articles … . The reader will be grateful not only for these historical explanatory remarks, but also for pieces adapted or written by Mandelbrot especially for this book. Collectively they give a compelling account of how a new branch of mathematics was created by the author. This delightful book makes good reading." (Helmut Kirchner, Pure and Applied Geophysics, Vol. 162, 2005)

“Exploring Greenland demonstrates that the history of scientific research in Greenland after 1945 is one of complex and often surprising interactions between actors from Denmark, the United States and beyond. It will be essential reading for historians with interests in the politics of Cold War science and environmental knowledge, especially in the Arctic, but valuable also for historians of the modern physical sciences more generally.” (Peder Roberts, British Journal for the History of Science, Vol. 50 (1), 2017)

"This innovative and important collection of papers connects the organisation of psychic life in infancy, the internal world of the adult couple and the functioning of groups in society through the thread of a Kleinian and post-Kleinian reading of the Oedipus complex. Rich in theoretical exposition and clinical illustration, and penned by a stellar cast of contributors, it traces processes that influence whether the path of containment and creativity or fear and fragmentation are chosen in the face of unconscious fantasy and environmental adversity. Complex ideas are presented with clarity, and integrated into a coherent whole. The microcosmic worlds of intra-psychic reality and the macroscopic worlds of social reality are linked through studying the dynamics of couple relationships in ways that inform and challenge those of us working in different professional settings to promote generosity in the dealings between people." --Christopher Clulow PhD, Senior Fellow, The Tavistock Centre for Couple Relationships, London.

"This book demonstrates the centrality of the internal couple as an unconscious dynamic in the individual mind, and illustrates its representations in couple, family and group relationships. Oedipal processes, primitive and more mature, inform how individuals form intimate relationships, how couples struggle to create space between them to manage love and aggression, how parents accommodate the triangulation arising from the birth of a child…..and all of these dynamics exist in groups, organisations and society as a whole. Theoretically sophisticated, clearly written, illustrated with vivid clinical examples, the discussions in the text will stimulate and add to the thinking of all clinicians and consultants working with individuals, couples, families, groups and organisations." --Stanley Ruszczynski, Psychoanalyst and psychoanalytic couple psychotherapist, Clinical Director, Portman Clinic, Editor of ‘Intrusiveness and Intimacy in the Couple’ and ‘Psychotherapy with Couples’

"Aleksandra Novakovic’s collection of essays by luminaries in the field of couple dynamics is unique. Its breadth of crucial topics begins with intimate issues such as the interaction of couples’ internal worlds and couples’ use of triangular space. It then offers vivid clinical explorations of several developmental couple issues, and concludes by considering　 the often-overlooked area of couples’ membership in groups and organizations. The book’s multidimensional exploration of couple life and couple therapy ensures that it will remain a vital resource to our field for decades to come." --David Scharff, MD is Co-founder of the International Psychotherapy Institute, co-editor of Psychoanalytic Couple Therapy, and Chair, the International Psychoanalytic Association’s Working Group on Family and Couple Psychoanalysis.
