Synopsis
Early one morning in April of 1987, the Chinese mathematician J. -Q. Zhong died unexpectedly of a heart attack in New York. He was then near the end of a one-year visit in the United States. When news of his death reached his Chinese-American friends, it was immediately decided by one and all that something should be done to preserve his memory. The present volume is an outgrowth of this sentiment. His friends in China have also established a Zhong Jia-Qing Memorial Fund, which has since twice awarded the Zhong Jia-Qing prizes for Chinese mathematics graduate students. It is hoped that at least part of the reasons for the esteem and affection in which he was held by all who knew him would come through in the succeeding pages of this volume. The three survey chapters by Li and Treibergs, Lu, and Siu (Chapters 1-3) all center around the areas of mathematics in which Zhong made noteworthy contributions. In addition to putting Zhong's mathematical contributions in perspective, these articles should be useful also to a large segment of the mathematical community; together they give a coherent picture of a sizable portion of contemporary geometry. The survey of Lu differs from the other two in that it gives a firsthand account of the work done in the People's Republic of China in several complex variables in the last four decades.

- t***c (140)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchasegreat seller, shipped fast, book as described, properly packaged, excellent price. thank you!
- 9***9 (176)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseWell packaged, book arrived in great condition. According to the Tracking App it took 4-5 days for the book to be mailed. So shipping is slow. The Book itself was well written and factual. Though no fault of the Dealer the title of this book was misleading on that it is called, "Wakinyan" which is the name of the Thunder Bird. Unfortunately the book does not even mention the ThunderBirds on any page. I bought the book from the title since there was not any description of the books contents .Wakinyan : Lakota Religion in the Twentieth Century by Stephen E. Feraca (1998, (#364248288433)
- o***n (168)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseNot a complete description. Happy to have the book but it isn''t Ed's book on trimaran sailing but an old Tri-Star design catalog. Ink doodles on one section weren't mentioned either. Well packed. however. Pricing a bit high for what was actually sent.
