This book is an interdisciplinary study of English binominal quantitative constructions based on English-Chinese comparison. Taking three perspectives, i. e. a functional-typological perspective, a cognitive approach, and a corpus-based method, it aims to unveil the hidden categorisation process behind the usage of English binominal quantitative constructions and to reveal the language universal in cognising the concepts of ‘Quantity’ and ‘Quality’. It argues against treating Chinese and English as members of two opposing typological camps concerning quantification modes (‘classifier languages’ versus ‘non-classifier languages’) and advocates to view the two languages as lying within a more extended and inclusive system, viz. a system of quantification and categorisation modes, or a Quantity-Quality continuum.

Utilizing game theory to analyze supply chain dynamics offers a fresh perspective on member interactions in both competitive and cooperative settings. This work presents comprehensive studies that explore various supply chain challenges through mathematical concepts, addressing factors like leadership roles and information availability. Additionally, it considers consumers as strategic players, incorporating their preferences and purchasing behaviors. The findings aim to enhance understanding of supply chain complexities and assist practitioners in making informed decisions to improve overall performance.
