Book Description
God’s Mighty Acts in China Many have heard of the extraordinary explosion of Christianity throughout China in recent decades. Few, however, know how it occurred. Paul Hattaway draws on thirty years’ experience in China and numerous interviews with church leaders to provide insights into how the living God brought about the largest revival in the history of Christianity. In a narrative full of jaw-dropping stories, The China Chronicles documents the acts of the Holy Spirit throughout China, where phenomenal growth has occurred in the furnace of intense persecution. Hattaway starts his account with Shandong Province, which is home to almost one hundred million people. On multiple occasions, God has revived his Church in Shandong by pouring out his Spirit with great power and grace. As a result, Shandong today could be rightfully called “China’s Revival Province.” The China Chronicles Series: Book 1: Shandong Book 2: Guizhou Book 3: Zhejang Book 4: Tibet Book 5: Henan Book 6: Xinjiang

The Encyclopedia of Martial Arts Movies
Author: Bill Palmer
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 0810830272
Category : Hand-to-hand fighting, Oriental, in motion pictures
Languages : en
Pages : 492
Book Description
The Encyclopedia covers the genre from 1920 to 1994. The genre, however, can be very confusing: films often have several titles, and many of the stars have more than one pseudonym. In an effort to clarify some of the confusion, the authors have included all the information available to them on almost 3,300 films. Each entry includes a listing of the production company, the cast and crew, distributors, running times, reviews with star ratings whenever possible, and alternate film titles. A list of film series and one of the stars' pseudonyms, in addition to a 7,900 name index, are also included. Illustrated.

Imperial Co-operation and Transfer, 1870-1930
Author:
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1472592158
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
Conflict and competition between imperial powers has long been a feature of global history, but their co-operation has largely been a peripheral concern. Imperial Co-operation and Transfer, 1870-1930 redresses this imbalance, providing a coherent conceptual framework for the study of inter-imperial collaboration and arguing that it deserves an equally prominent position in the field. Using a variety of examples from across Asia, Europe and Africa, this book demonstrates the ways in which empires have shared and exchanged their knowledge about imperial governance, including military strategy, religious influence and political surveillance. It asks how, when and where these partnerships took place, and who initiated them. Not only does this book fill an empirical gap in the study of imperial history, it traces ideas of empire from their conception in imperial contact zones to their implementation in specific contexts. As such, this is an important study for imperial and global historians of all specialisms.

The Year China Changed
Author: Tom Scovel
Publisher: Tate Publishing
ISBN: 1625108648
Category : Travel
Languages : en
Pages : 544
Book Description
The mighty China we know today was an impoverished and devastated nation when the Communists finally gained control back in 1949. Napoleon's sleeping giant has awakened with a vengeance! The Peoples Republic of China has emerged as an economic super power, the major player in global politics, and America's most dangerous competitor yet most valued partner. How did all of this transpire and how can we better understand this powerful nation and her extraordinary people? Born and raised in China, Tom Scovel was one of the first Americans to be invited back by the P.R.C. government and during his residence and travels in 1979, he was fortunate to witness firsthand the transformative policies that laid the foundations for the powerful nation we must reckon with today. He was also able to visit his childhood homes and the site of the internment camp where his family was incarcerated during World War II. Month after month during that momentous year, Scovel was able to observe the incremental changes in the economic, social, and political life of the average Chinese citizen that eventually led that nation from a weak and destitute country to today's contemporary power. He also documents a worldview that undergirds this amazing revolution and that still binds the modern Chinese people to their lengthy and rich historical heritage. The Year China Changed offers a unique perspective on China and her people from an "American Chinese" who was both a participant and an observer during a remarkable year of transformation.
