The Peach Blossom Fan is a poetic drama about national cataclysm. More than 300 years ago, the last native Chinese imperial house fell before rebel onslaughts, made a short-lived attempt at restoration in the south, then yielded finally to the invading Manchus. Writing in the 1690s, K'ung Shang-jen gathered the recollections of survivors. Out of these and a multitude of documentary accounts, he constructed a great historical play in the elegant Southern Chinese style. With compelling vividness he recreates confrontations between loyalists and those who would sell out to the newest master; nostalgic scenes of dalliance in riverside pavilions, with wine and poetry and beautiful girls; desperate stands on battlements of beleaguered cities; and more. Prefatory materials and notes provide both historical and dramaturgical background for the reader's full enjoyment of this masterpiece.

It lives up to its reputation.. Rowan and Jack work out a compromise for her need for independence and his need to keep her safe with humor and passion. While the other four passengers agonized over the possibility of the plane going down if the luggage became tangled in the propellors, I was trying to follow our coordinates so I could search for my plates if they fell to the swampy ground below. Retirement is a complex process that can be accomplished all-at-once, or incrementally over time, but retirement always requires coordination with other processes in your organization.
EUP adds a new support Discipline to RUP: the Operations and Support Discipline. I've been reading Barry Stone's columns in my newspaper for years. I might have omitted this chapter.
It's a useful book, but I think it could be improved.. I had to read it twice. Rosentraub covers the issue from the perspective of a concerned citizen and avid sports fan who just happens to be an economist rat
