while reading this book, I cannot help trying to find its connections to "the selfish gene", in a simultaneous way.

DNA : The Secret of Life

Brit Cheung
Brit Cheung is on page 62 of 336 of The Price of Civilization
We are paralyzed, but not mainly by disagreements between the two parties, as is commonly supposed. We are paralyzed, rather, by a shared lack of serious attention to our future. We increasingly drift between elections without serious resolution of a long list of deep problems, whether it's the gargantuan budget deficit, wars, health care,education, energy policy, immigration reform ,campaign finance reform, and much

The Price of Civilization

Brit Cheung is on page 42 of 184 of Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business
The book is still offering thought-provoking revelations for the contemporary China society. I mean the pompous and low quality mass media still is misleading and inflicting ignorance on undiscriminating people. So many don't read and think and become victims of rumors and false information, losing their ability to judge…… Too BAD!

Brit Cheung is on page 43 of 212 of Frankenstein
I need not describe the feelings of those whose dearest ties are rent by that most irreparable evil.the void that presents itself to the soul,and the despair that exhibited on the countenance. It is so long before the mind can persudade itself that she whom we saw every day and whose very existence appeared a part of our own can have departed forever,that the brightness of a beloved eye can have been extinguished.

Brit Cheung is on page 39 of 612 of The Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art: Companion and Commentary
Serendipity in library! Found both C/E language versions. A combination of ancient Chinese and modern Maths. The algorithms, algebraic operations, functional equations and all the solutions to those Math problems. These things are so intriguing that I will not drop it. Consider it as a recreation and Maths training practice. Just Cannot Let Maths Go!

Brit Cheung is on page 94 of 272 of Winner Take All: China's Race for Resources and What It Means for the World
Accidentally picked this book up but guess what?! a glimpse into a few pages of this little book persuades me it would be definitely informative and insightful. Personally I deem it a must read of this year:)

Brit Cheung is on page 62 of 271 of The Magic of Reality: How We Know What's Really True
Basically about common sense but still interesting to read.

"In fact,unsurpringly,the story in Holy books don't contain any more information about the world than was known to the primitive peoples who first started telling them. If these books really were written ,or dictated ,or inspired ,by all knowing gods, don't you think It's odd that those gods said nothing about any of these important and useful things"

Brit Cheung is starting The New Asian Hemisphere: The Irresistible Shift of Global Power to the East
want to read this long ago but there was only one copy in the library and wasn't available till now. As a very singular Singapore-based scholar, Kishore Mahbubani's works shall prioritize my imminent reading lists, I guess.
