        Library of Chinese Classics :Zhuang Zi

        by Qin Xuqing

        "Zhuangzi", also known as "South China Scriptures," is one of the Taoist classics by the philosopher Zhuang Zi of the Warring States Period and its later studies. The book includes 7 articles, 15 articles, 11 articles, a total of 33 articles. In this book, Chuang Tzu inherited and developed Lao Tzu's view of "nature of Taoism". Taking "Tao" as the origin of the world, Zhuangzi considered that "Tao" is self-contained and eternal. The difference between things is only relative. In conformity with this concept of cosmology, Zhuangzi advocates the concept of "nature inaction" and advocates the maintenance of individual physical and psychological freedom and the pursuit of a spirit of unrestrained and harmonious man and nature. This book takes Guo Qingfan's Zhuangzi Collection as the base and translates it. The English translation draws on the existing English translations and selection books. It is the current English version of Zhuangzi.

        The Concept of Ecostacking

        Techniques and Applications

        by Jinjun Wang, Huai Liu, Ingeborg Menzler-Hokkanen, Hongbo Jiang, Heikki M.T. Hokkanen, Ingeborg Menzler-Hokkanen

        Ecostacking is a new concept and approach which aims to maximize the benefits of ecosystem service providers in cropping systems to help achieve the goal of long-term sustainable agriculture and food production. The term "ecostacking" means combining synergistically the beneficial services of functional biodiversity from all levels and types. It is a comprehensive approach, where the various ecosystem service providers are fully integrated with the rest of the cropping system including agronomic practices. It is an approach which goes beyond conventional Integrated Pest Management practises, and attempts to take advantage of all the functional biodiversity of a system. The main focus of ecostacking is on maximizing ecosystem services for biological control and pollination from beneficial arthropods, but the approach also utilizes other invertebrates (e.g., earthworms) as well as beneficial vertebrates such as bats, birds and small mammals. Microbes also provide invaluable ecosystem services including pest, disease, and weed control, either directly as components of "suppressive soils" or as plant colonizers (as endophytes or as epiphytic microbial flora). The ecostacking approach also aims to maximize other nature-provided services such as maintenance of soil health and nutrient cycling. The Concept of Ecostacking is the first book in a series which introduces ecostacking concepts to the reader and explores how this approach can be used in a variety of ways and in different cropping systems. The book defines this new concept and shows, using illustrative case studies from around the world, how ecostacking principles can be successfully employed in cropping systems in the open field, in greenhouses and in forestry. This book: · will serve as inspiration for developing further applications of this breakthrough technology for sustainable agricultural production. · is a must-read for everyone with an interest in developing sustainable crop protection systems and ecosystem management. · has been written and edited by the world's leading experts in this new and exciting endeavour.
