Two Trees Make a Forest
This "stunning journey through a country that is home to exhilarating natural wonders, and a scarring colonial past . . . makes breathtakingly clear the connection between nature and humanity, and offers a singular portrait of the complexities inherent to our ideas of identity, family, and love" (Refinery29). A chance discovery of letters written by her immigrant grandfather leads Jessica J. Lee to her ancestral homeland, Taiwan. There, she seeks his story while growing closer to the land he knew. Lee hikes mountains home to Formosan flamecrests, birds found nowhere else on earth, and swims in a lake of drowned cedars. She bikes flatlands where spoonbills alight by fish farms, and learns abo...
Finding My Sunrise
One woman's escape, her search for freedom, her search to find herself again. I can't believe I am doing this. Do I really have the courage to go through with this? Well, I guess it is a little late now. Is it though? Maybe I could make it back before he gets home from his trip. He won't have to know I tried to get away. I looked at my watch, right as the bus started pulling away from the station. Then again... maybe not. I guess it doesn't matter. If I go home now, he'll be there. There's no way he isn't home by this point. There is no excuse that will save me this time. When he finds me, no excuse will save me. At least I will know I at least tried. That's something, right? Snap out of it Samantha, that's no way to think. I can do this. He won't find me. There, I will just keep repeating that to myself... at least until I actually believe it.

Turning
'The water slips over me like cool silk. The intimacy of touch uninhibited, rising around my legs, over my waist, my breasts, up to my collarbone. When I throw back my head and relax, the lake runs into my ears. The sound of it is a muffled roar, the vibration of the body amplified by water, every sound felt as if in slow motion . . .' Summer swimming . . . but Jessica Lee - Canadian, Chinese and British - swims through all four seasons and especially loves the winter. 'I long for the ice. The sharp cut of freezing water on my feet. The immeasurable black of the lake at its coldest. Swimming then means cold, and pain, and elation.'At the age of twenty-eight, Jessica Lee, who grew up in Canad...

Nanomaterials
Nanomaterials are being incorporated into products all around us, having an incredible impact on durability, strength, functionality, and other material properties. There are a vast number of nanomaterials presently available, and new formulations and chemistries are being announced daily. Nanomaterials: A Guide to Fabrication and Applications provides product developers, researchers, and materials scientists with a handy resource for understanding the range of options and materials currently available. Covering a variety of nanomaterials and their applications, this practical reference: Discusses the scale of nanomaterials and nanomachines, focusing on integrated circuits (ICs) and microele...
Wireless Power Transfer and Data Communication for Neural Implants
This book presents new circuits and systems for implantable biomedical applications targeting neural recording. The authors describe a system design adapted to conform to the requirements of an epilepsy monitoring system. Throughout the book, these requirements are reflected in terms of implant size, power consumption, and data rate. In addition to theoretical background which explains the relevant technical challenges, the authors provide practical, step-by-step solutions to these problems. Readers will gain understanding of the numerical values in such a system, enabling projections for feasibility of new projects.
