PP Press: CREATE ABUNDANCE to be released

PP Press is to release a new book in early february...

title: CREATE ABUNDANCE 《创造丰盛》 
author: Zhang Xinyue 张馨月
translator: Yuan Changming 袁昌明
publisher: PP Press (ISBN:978-0-9919298-3-2)

the original chinese version of this book was published by huaxia press (beijing) in 2012 and has gone into the 4th edition ever since. popular as it is among chinse readers, this book is one of the 6 authored thus far by Ms Zhang Xinyue, a highly inspiring and influential spiritual leader who, with a master's degree in world economics, has hundreds of thousands of students or close followers in mainland china, korea, taiwan and japan.

this book is about how to achieve/live an 'abundant' life through spiritual cultivation. as i understand it, such an 'abundant' life is characterized by physical and psychological health as well as materialistic success.

this is the first non poetry book PP Press is to publish. be that as it may, this book has much poetry in among the words. categorized as a 'body, mind and spirit' book, this work will be the first among Ms Zhang's to be published in english.

PP Press will publish this book bilingually, both in english and chinese, so that whoever interested in learning chinese or english can hopefully use it as a 'text' book.

PP Press is now working with a well-established printer in china. we plan to print 30,000 copies to begin with. with little knowledge about printing, i have to spend a lot of time on the details and actually am going through a lot of frustrating technical hassles

hope everything will turn out as planned...
