Brief Biography:
Ping-keung Lui is a Principal Lecturer at Department of Applied Social Sciences, The Polytechnic University of Hong Kong. He was trained in Mathematics but has never worked in it. He had been wandering in Statistics, Social Research and Social Demography, and is finally settling down in Theoretical Sociology. He is closely associated with colleagues in philosophy, and is currently the Chairman of Hong Kong Society of Phenomenology. Most recently, one of his theoretical papers ("The Ground of the Social World") which is published in 2001 in Sociological Research (a bimonthly journal published by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences) was assessed one of the 31 distinguished articles published in the past 100 issues of the journal. His first book, Gaze, Action, and the Social World, under the auspices of Research Centre for Phenomenology and Human Science, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, is expected to come out by the end of 2005.
