A suspenseful sci-fi escapade plucks two children out of the ocean for a thrilling adventure. Thirteen-year-old Aluna has lived her entire life under the ocean with the Coral Kampii in the City of Shifting Tides. But after centuries spent hidden from the Above World, her colony’s survival is at risk. The Kampii’s breathing necklaces are failing, but the elders are unwilling to venture above water to seek answers. Only headstrong Aluna and her friend Hoku are stubborn and bold enough to face the terrors of land to search for way to save their people. But can Aluna’s fierce determination and fighting skills and Hoku’s tech-savvy keep them safe? Set in a world where overcrowding has led humans to adapt — growing tails to live under the ocean or wings to live on mountains — here is a ride through a future where greed and cruelty have gone unchecked, but the loyalty of friends remains true.

On the terrace of an elaborate hilltop apartment overlooking a Central American capital, four people sit making polite conversation. The American couple -- an elderly physician and his young wife -- are tourists. Their host, whom they have just met, is a young man of striking good looks and charm. The girl, his mistress, is very young and very beautiful. Sitting there, watching the sunset, the Slades seem to be enjoying the sort of fortunate chance encounter that travelers cherish. But amid the civilities and small talk, the host's casual remark to the American woman proves prophetic: "It's not exactly what you think." Masterfully -- with the poetic control that has always characterized his work -- Paul Bowles leads the reader beneath the surface of hospitality and luxury into a tortuous maze of human relationships and shifting moods, until what seems at first a merely casual encounter is seen to be one rooted in viciousness and horror.

Throughout the ages, every major breakthrough in science and technology has initiated profound changes in productivity and greatly promoted the progress of human civilization. From “language” growing out of interpersonal communication to “currency” coming out of the exchange of goods, as well as the “internet” originating from the profound fusion of “man, machine and the environment,” the development and application of networks contain the great power for “interconnection and shared governance” and point the way for the development of “interplanetary communication and the sustainability of civilization.”Today, the successors of the Chinese School of Systems Engineering are trying to forge the key to world development with systems engineering methods and to plan the ideal formation and new heights of the future world, starting from analyzing a prototype of such a world. They are creating a “community with a shared future for mankind” and providing Chinese wisdom and solutions in the course of realizing “interstellar navigation” and the construction of an “interstellar society.” In addition, they are illuminating the path for future world development with the light of systematic thought!(从古到今,科学技术的每一次重大突破,都会引发生产力的深刻变革,推动人类文明的巨大进步。从人与人交流涌现出“语言”,物与物交换涌现出“货币”,“人、机、环境”深度交融涌现出“互联网”、网络的发展应用,蕴含着“互联互通、共享共治”的巨大力量,昭示着“星际通信、文明永续”的发展逻辑。 今天系统工程中国学派的传承者们尝试从分析世界的原型出发,通过系统工程方法锻铸世界发展的钥匙,擘划未来世界的理想型新高度。构建“人类命运共同体”在实现“星际航行”、构建“星际社会”的奋斗历程中提供中国智慧和中国方案。用系统思想之光照亮未来世界发展的征程!)
