This book is the first of its kind to provide a comprehensive, contextualized and current account of China's development and regulation of cross-border listings. As the world's second-largest economy, it is crucial to understand how China regulates the overseas listing of its companies and the opening up of its capital market to foreign companies, particularly at a time of ongoing and escalating geopolitical tensions. Offering an up-to-date account of the subject, Professor Huang enables readers to gain a holistic and accurate understanding in this area. Providing a contextualized and practical analysis of the subject from a Chinese perspective, he explains not only what the law is but also why the law is the way that it is fundamentally. The book also examines the political, economic and social factors shaping the institutional context in which the law operates, assisting readers in understanding the reasons behind past regulatory actions and predicting future regulatory developments.

China's Development and Regulation of Cross-border Listings

A new paradigm based on quantum probability that can model stock markets and price options—and also upends classical quantitative finance. In The Quantum Stock Market, David Orrell combines theory and new empirical findings to argue for a new approach to finance based on quantum probability. The main finding, a property called q-variance, may be unique in finance in that it was discovered as the result of a prediction, affects financial markets in general, has no tunable parameter, and has important consequences for a range of topics including the pricing of financial options. The property, which somehow eluded detection for over a century, has been verified by experts in the field. And the fact that it is incompatible with classical finance—which is perhaps why it went undetected—suggests that the field must be reinvented. The aim of this book is therefore nothing less than to initiate a paradigm shift in finance. As with any new work that challenges existing methods, the ideas have already received considerable pushback from a range of sources, including leaders in the field of finance, along with physicists skeptical of applying quantum probability outside its traditional domain. Written in an interdisciplinary style that mixes mathematical equations, data analysis, and informed comment on the field of finance, it should be read by anyone—including students, academics, and practitioners—who wants to be on the right side of a paradigm shift.

Warum sich in Taiwan jederzeit die Zukunft der internationalen Ordnung neu entscheiden kann - und was wir über den Konflikt mit China wissen müssen 
 Während die Welt auf China blickt, wird Taiwan oft übersehen. Dabei leben hier Menschen, die seit Generationen darum ringen, gehört zu werden – zwischen kolonialem Erbe, chinesischem Druck und demokratischem Aufbruch. Vieles, was wir über Taiwan zu wissen glauben, ist geprägt von alten Narrativen, gezielter Propaganda und hartnäckigen Missverständnissen. 
 
 David Demes, der seit über 10 Jahren in Taiwan lebt und als Journalist arbeitet, will diese Perspektive korrigieren. Sein Buch erzählt die Geschichten jener, die im Schatten der Großmächte um Sichtbarkeit, Sicherheit und Selbstbestimmung kämpfen. Es erklärt, wie das Land sich auf eine mögliche Invasion Chinas vorbereitet. Und es zeigt, warum der Kampf um Taiwans Zukunft auch uns in Deutschland und Europa betrifft – politisch, wirtschaftlich und moralisch.

It's Not too Late to Build Toward a Better Future!Rick Caruso has earned a reputation for being a problem solver--somebody who's not afraid of facing big challenges. From his appointment to Water Commissioner and later Police Commissioner in Los Angeles to his bold real estate ventures, Caruso made the decisions he felt were right, even in the face of staunch adversity. In Its Not Too Late, Caruso shares the lessons he learned from his experiences while offering us all a path forward to a better future. At a time when more importance is placed on choosing sides than actually getting things done (let alone done right), Caruso offers refreshing perspective and will teach you how to let go of false divisions, and instead to embrace the search for actual answers and solutions.Togetherness, brotherhood, sisterhood, faith in each other, respect for each other, the ideals preached in almost every faith on Earth are the way forward, no matter how difficult the climb in front of us may seem. And ultimately, the only way we will get back on that path is for each of us to step up, with integrity, in whatever small way we can: for our kids, for our communities, for our country, and for each other.

It’s Not too Late to Build Toward a Better Future!

The Power of Finding Steadfast Solutions

It's Not Too Late

An acclaimed New York Times Magazine writer brings us into the world of the controversial technology firm Palantir and its very colorful and outspoken CEO, Alex Karp, tracing the ascent of Big Data, the rise of surveillance technology, and the shifting global balance of power in the 21st century. Palantir builds data integration software: its technology ingests vast quantities of information and quickly identifies patterns, trends, and connections that might elude the human eye. Founded in 2003 to help the US government in the war on terrorism—an early investor was the CIA—Palantir is now a $400 billion global colossus whose software is used by major intelligence services (including the Mossad), the US military, dozens of federal agencies, and corporate giants like Airbus and BP. From AI to counterterrorism to climate change to immigration to financial fraud to the future of warfare, the company is at the nexus of the most critical issues of the twenty-first century. Its CEO, Alex Karp, is a distinctive figure on the global business scene. A biracial Jew who is also severely dyslexic, Karp has built Palantir into a tech giant despite having no background in either business or computer science. Instead, he’s a trained philosopher who has become known for his strongly held views on a range of issues and for his willingness to grapple with the moral and ethical implications of Palantir’s work. Those questions have taken on added urgency during the Trump era, which has also brought attention to the political activism of Karp’s close friend and Palantir cofounder Peter Thiel. In The Philosopher in the Valley, journalist Michael Steinberger explores the world of Alex Karp, Palantir, and the future that they are leading us toward. It is an urgent and illuminating work about one of Silicon Valley’s most secretive and powerful companies, whose technology is at the leading edge of the surveillance state.

“Mind-expanding . . . The Score is so exuberant and readable that the depth and seriousness of its insights almost sneak up on you.” —Jennifer Szalai, The New York Times “Brilliant and wildly original . . . The Score is socially attentive, historically literate and imbued with sensual glee.” —Becca Rothfeld, The Washington Post “I give this excellent book five stars.” —Stuart Jeffries, Financial Times A philosophy of games to help us win back control over what we value The philosopher C. Thi Nguyen—one of the leading experts on the philosophy of games and the philosophy of data—takes us deep into the heart of games, and into the depths of bureaucracy, to see how scoring systems shape our desires. Games are the most important art form of our era. They embody the spirit of free play. They show us the subtle beauty of action everywhere in life in video games, sports, and boardgames—but also cooking, gardening, fly-fishing, and running. They remind us that it isn’t always about outcomes, but about how glorious it feels to be doing the thing. And the scoring systems help get us there, by giving us new goals to try on. Scoring systems are also at the center of our corporations and bureaucracies—in the form of metrics and rankings. They tell us exactly how to measure our success. They encourage us to outsource our values to an external authority. And they push on us to value simple, countable things. Metrics don’t capture what really matters; they only capture what’s easy to measure. The price of that clarity is our independence. The Score asks us is this the game you really want to be playing?

How to Stop Playing Somebody Else's Game

The Score

For more than two decades, Marwan Barghouti has been held in an Israeli prison cell, much of that time in total isolation. Yet his voice has never been forgotten. Described by the Economist as 'the world's most important prisoner' and often referred to as Palestine's Mandela, Barghouti remains the most widely supported Palestinian political leader. As a long-standing advocate of peace grounded in justice and equality, he has become an enduring symbol of unity and hope - even from behind bars. Unbroken brings together, for the first time, a powerful and intimate portrait of Barghouti's life and struggle for a free Palestine: private letters to his family, personal writings, correspondence with global public figures, press interviews, public statements and rare personal photographs. This is his story, in his own words. Unsilenced, unbroken.

This book explores the complexity of cities as sites of warfare and investigates the ever-growing challenges for Disaster Risk Management (DRM). Through analysis of existing literature, media coverage and in-depth case studies, this title investigates the vulnerabilities of growing cities, the consequences citizens face in crises, and the effectiveness of DRM systems.
By depicting the serious global security problems that test systems of culture, governance, war and peace practices, this book encourages discussion around the present and future condition of cities. The volume investigates the impacts of urban warfare and argues for the implementation of effective DRM systems that are based on understanding of disaster risk in all its dimensions, achieved through well-designed training programs employing the latest teaching-learning theories and agile methodologies.

Advances in Spatial Science

As cities evolve at unprecedented speed and scale, traditional digital twins—virtual models of physical urban systems—fall short in capturing the dynamic and complex nature of urban life. This book bridges the gap between digital urban representations and the dynamic processes that shape our cities.Moving beyond conventional data and technological infrastructure, this work formulates a comprehensive framework for embedding urban dynamics and complexity into digital twins. It reimagines them as living systems that adapt, learn and evolve in real time, near real time and over the long horizon. Through integrated feedback loops between data, physical infrastructure, high-dimensional models and reduced-order approximations, digital twins are transformed into powerful tools for the modeling, simulation, prediction and proactive management of urban development.This book presents cutting-edge methods to learn, simplify and encode urban dynamics and complexity into digital twins—whether or not the underlying mechanisms are fully understood. It also addresses critical challenges such as scalability, uncertainty propagation, network sensing and data quality, and demonstrates how dynamic digital twins can be continually refined through new information and emerging insights.At the intersection of urban theory, artificial intelligence, machine learning and big spatiotemporal data, this book charts a new course for the modeling and governance of cities. It is a vital resource for researchers, practitioners and decision-makers across disciplines—inviting collaboration between academia, industry, government and professionals working on the frontlines of our ever-changing urban environments.Explore a bold vision for cities that can think, adapt and respond—one where digital twins become not just mirrors, but engines of transformation.
